Military Vets Take Biden Administration to Court Over New Gun Restriction

A group of military veterans is suing the Biden administration over a new gun rule that they say dramatically expands the definition of "rifle" to include certain pistols, putting millions of gun-owning Americans at risk of criminal liability, according to a complaint filed in federal court on Tuesday morning.

The lawsuit is one of the first legal challenges to the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms’s new rule, which was also posted on Tuesday, that requires owners of pistols who attach "stabilizing brace" accessories to register the firearm as a "short-barrel rifle" and comply with taxes and regulations of the National Firearms Act. This includes listing the pistol, and the owner’s name and address, in a national database, according to the suit.

The suit asked the court to block the new regulation, arguing that the ATF rule is "arbitrary, capricious," and "invalid."
