Yet Another Loss for the NRA & the Brewer Law Firm - Ammoland.com

 Tombstone, Arizona – -(Ammoland.com)- Another swing and a miss for the NRA and their high-priced attorneys at the Brewer law firm, this time in a motion to intervene in a case brought by Ranier Arms and the Second Amendment Foundation. This is just the latest in a long line of expensive failures for the NRA’s very expensive attorneys.

A few weeks ago, the Firearms Policy Coalition won an injunction in the Federal Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit to halt enforcement of the BATFE’s new rule on pistol stabilizing braces, but only for the plaintiffs in the case.

The new rule went into effect on June first and makes anyone still in possession of an AR-type pistol with a stabilizing brace attached after that date a felon unless they had previously filed paperwork to register the brace-equipped firearm as a Short-Barreled Rifle (SBR) under the National Firearms Act. Several groups and individuals had challenged the new rule in various lawsuits, and most of those cases called for the courts to block enforcement of the new rule until the courts could resolve the constitutionality of the rule and render final decisions.

The case filed by the Firearms Policy Coalition, along with some pistol brace manufacturers, sellers, and individual brace owners, made its way to the Fifth Circuit shortly before the end of May deadline, and the judges agreed that the plaintiffs should be protected from prosecution until the case could reach a final judicial resolution. The plaintiffs immediately asked the court for clarification regarding the scope of the protection, and the court responded by saying that all of the plaintiffs, their customers, and all members of the Firearms Policy Coalition were protected by the injunction.
