Third Circuit Strikes Down New Jersey Rifle and Magazine Bans
On July 17, the full Third Circuit, sitting en banc, held that New Jersey's "assault firearm" ban and its ban on magazines over ten rounds both violate the Second Amendment. Not a panel. The full court. If you have followed these cases at all, you know how rare that is out of that circuit. And the timing is impossible to ignore, with the Supreme Court having just agreed to take up the same core question a few weeks ago.

16340 (CR123a) USB Rechargeable Batteries 2pk
If you run a weapon light, a handheld light, or an optic that eats CR123A batteries, you already know the problem.
