A Monumental 2A Victory: 3rd Circuit Strikes Down New Jersey Semiautomatic Rifle and Magazine Restrictions
In an unprecedented and historic shift for second amendment jurisprudence, the 3rd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals issued a sweeping 10-5 en banc ruling yesterday, Friday, July 17, 2026, striking down New Jersey’s ban on semiautomatic rifles and its restriction on magazines holding more than 10 rounds. The 192-page opinion marks the first time in American history that a federal appellate court has invalidated a state-level "assault weapon" or magazine capacity ban, delivering a monumental victory to the National Rifle Association (NRA).
