A U.S. appeals court ruled Wednesday that California's ban on the sale of semiautomatic weapons to adults under 21 is unconstitutional.

In a 2-1 ruling, a panel of the San Francisco-based 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals said Wednesday the law violates the Second Amendment right to bear arms and a San Diego judge should have blocked what it called "an almost total ban on semiautomatic centerfire rifles" for young adults.

Next up - en banc hearing with the whole court. We already know the outcome of that.

Strangely, California is one of the few states missing a provision in its State constitution/State Bill of Rights pertaining to a right to keep and bear arms.

We can send them to war and let them give their lives operating full automatic attack helicopters with rockets and tanks, but will not let them buy a legal rifle for personal use...

Okay, so long gun ban is unconstitutional, so how is pistol any different? I don’t see any wording in shall not be infringed to say that pistols could be banned.

And when they come home, we try to label them with PTSD, take ALL their Rights and Benefits away, and Jail them.

You mean, the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals got one right?’’

I did notice it was only a 2-1 decision though.

Yes, it was not an en banc decision, it may be appealed up to that or higher.

Different fight. The ban on sales of handguns to under 21 is a federal law and only applies to FFLs (private sellers can sell/trade/transfer handguns to 18 and older - dependent on state law).
