Fed judge rules AR's "dangerous & unusual", not covered by 2nd Amendment

[brimic]

I wonder how this judge would have ruled in the 1880's on lever guns? :)

...Or the Taurus Judge!!!!1111
Its a shotgun. its a handgun, its a handful of death!
And its not used by the military.

I would fully support a bill that rolled back the Hughes Amendment in exchange for banning the Judge.

Forget the judge, how about a pistol that fires shot from a SECOND BARREL!?!?

Obviously too dangerous to entrust to citizens.

Actually that might be considered a SBS if it used fixed cartridges.

There's a later version that apparently did use centerfire cartridges. I'm just not certain if that included the shotgun barrel.

Circuit split? The judge who heard the challenge to the NY "SAFE" Act ruled that the AR-15 IS in customary, popular use.

Not to be the pedantic law school dropout, but it isn't a circuit split unless the respective courts of appeals for those districts (2nd Cir for NY, 4th Cir for MD) hear the cases and rule differently on whether the AR-15 is in common use.  If those circuits both apply Heller et al. correctly there will be no Circuit split and no need for the Supreme Court to straighten things out.

If the revolver cylinder chambers self-contained cartridges and the shotgun barrel is still a muzzleloader, would it be an SBS?  Common sense says no, but this is the Feds we're talking about.
