The Trump administration's ban on bump stocks was an about-face for the federal Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives. A total of 58 people were killed in the shooting, and two died later. Most of the rifles were fitted with bump stock devices and high-capacity magazines. It stemmed from the Las Vegas shooting in which the gunman, a 64-year-old retired postal service worker and high-stakes gambler, used assault-style rifles to fire more than 1,000 rounds in 11 minutes into a crowd of 22,000 music fans. The ban on bump stocks took effect in 2019. The new case is not about the Second Amendment right to "keep and bear arms," but rather whether the Trump administration followed federal law in changing the bump stock regulation.
