Will the Supreme Court abolish the ATF and rule machineguns are legal on Sept. 28th?
The Supreme Court will review two cases with the same gun issue on Sept. 28th.
The two cases are:
Gun Owners versus the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms (ATF), case number 21-1215, and:

Aposhian versus the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms (ATF), case number, 21-159
https://www.supremecourt.gov/search.aspx?filename=/docket/docketfiles/html/public/21-159.html
In one sentence, the issue in these cases is:
does a federal agency, the ATF, have the right to define, through its regulations, the Second Amendment, including the definition of a machinegun?
What will the Supreme Court decide?
It can:
schedule them for an oral hearing as soon as possible
deny the review
issue a one-page “slip decision” written by one Justice
continue the cases for the 22nd time
On June 23rd, the Supreme Court overruled that New York's law requiring a license to carry concealed weapons in public places is unconstitutional.
The Court ruled that American citizens have a right to carry a gun outside their homes.
