“The case centers around the Firearms Freedom Act, which invokes states rights under the 9th and 10th Amendments to the U.S. Constitution and declares that ‘any firearms made and retained in-state are beyond the authority of Congress under its constitution to regulate commerce among states.’ The FFA was first passed in Montana. It has since been adopted and enacted in at least nine other states and introduced in approximately 20. The Ninth Circuit essentially ruled that federal law requires gun manufacturers, gun shop owners and dealers to keep records, pay fees and make themselves available to the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives for inspection.”
