Pretty sure the judgment is clear. Private party sales across state lines doesn't require a FFL receiver and buyer background check to be legal, as under current law. Private party sales between individuals is legal no matter the originating state and the destination state, so long as no other law is blocking the sale (such as 7 round capacity limits, sexy gun bans, etc.)

The federal government failed to demonstrate that these background checks contribute anything useful to interstate commerce and was found to be an onerous burden on interstate buyers.

Nothing to forbid state registries, overturn ammo capacity bans, sexy rifle bans, etc. All this affects is interstate requirements that seller to buyer transactions go through a FFL seller, and fees paid for background checks.

The unique part of the judgment is that the jurist didn't limit this to firearms, but included all weapons.

Was reading about this last night. Media’s take is this will be stayed and never stand. Probably take the same path as the DC ruling last year—brief notice, disappears, and no change. Now, if the Supreme Court would pick up and affirm both, that would be game changing.

What is considered a “sexy rifle”? I tried to look that one up but the results returned were to naughty to click.
