ANJRPC v. Platkin - Assault Weapons Ban - 3rd Circuit Court of Appeals

@TheSnake92 - moved your post into this thread discussing the case. You might pick up some of your answer from earlier responses here.

In the Cheeseman vs Platkin lawsuit what would the removal of the AWB mean for banned by name rifles? Im having M1 carbine FOMO again.

Hopefully, but it depends entirely on how broadly the ruling is issued. I’d probably be picking up an M1 Carbine and a 2011 right away if this were the case.

I’m gonna end up using the current banned list as a shopping list. Finger, toes, and everything in between crossed it’s a complete ruling in our favor and not a watered down useless ruling.

M1 carbine and a bm59 are at the top of my milsurp list.

It’s been about 4 months since they heard arguments on this. Was really hoping for a decision before I bought more gear but my permit was nearing expiration. I’ll be happy once we no longer need to neuter mags.

Anyone got a guess as to when we might get a decision?

Yup, sums up my feelings. Sort of worried the same about the carry case they just heard. We’ll turn to dust before hearing anything it seems.

For the Siegel/Koons case, I would be very surprised to see anything from the 3rd Circuit before the Supreme Court rules on Woolford.

I’m hoping the Cheeseman decision comes sooner than that. I would be very surprised if it takes as long as the 2 years that the panel took to come up with their nonsense.
