A federal judge on Tuesday struck down a Biden administration ban on forced reset triggers, devices that allow semiautomatic weapons to fire at faster rates, citing the Supreme Court’s decision to overturn a ban on bump stocks last month.

Judge Reed O’Connor of the Northern District of Texas ruled in favor of guns-rights groups that had sued the U.S. Justice Department and Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives in 2023 challenging the ban.


O’Connor’s ruling took the same approach that the Supreme Court’s conservative majority did in overturning the Trump administration’s ban on bump-stock devices in June by focusing on ATF’s interpretation of laws restricting the possession of machine guns. It stated that although forced reset triggers enable a user to fire weapons at a faster rate than normal triggers, they do not meet the statutory definition of a machine gun because they do not enable guns to fire multiple rounds with a “single function of the trigger.”

The irony is they could have stopped at the NFA and most people would have complied. After the Hughes amendment passed this kind of thing was inevitable. Its eventually going to nullify the NFA in its entirety.

The sbr case might unravel it.

Since Miller was based on arms not commonly used in military service and now a standard issue m4 is a sbr.

Bruen should unravel it. It's pretty easy to say it's not a historical precedent when it happened nearly 200 years later.
