Analysis: Supreme Court overturns ban on bump stocks

  • Summary

  • In the wake of a 2017 mass shooting at a concert in Las Vegas, the Trump administration passed a regulation to ban bump stocks – a device that enables a semiautomatic rifle to fire rounds much like a machine gun. Last week, the conservative-majority Court struck down that ban, stating the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives overstepped its authority in classifying bump stocks as machine guns.

    In this episode of the Duke Law Podcast, the Duke Center for Firearms Law unpacks the Court’s ruling and discusses whether it offers insights into how the justices might approach future Second Amendment and gun rights cases.
