TFA files amicus brief in Sixth Circuit opposing “bump stock” ban On August 2, 2021, Tennessee Firearms Association and 9 other similar
state organizations filed an amicus brief in the 6th Circuit Court of
Appeals to support a lawsuit by Gun Owners of America which seeks to
have the ATF’s administrative reclassification of “bump stock” devices
to be considered machineguns and thus contraband.
In March 2021, a three judge panel of the Sixth Circuit Court of Appeals held
that a district court should have granted an injunction prohibiting the
federal government from enforcing the ATF’s administrative “bump stock”
ban. The Biden administration was unhappy with that outcome and filed
for an “en banc” reconsideration in which all of the judges on the Sixth
Circuit would rehear the case. A majority of the judges agreed that
the case should be heard by the entire court and therefore issued an order setting aside the March 2021 panel decision.
