Attorney General Jackley Praises 8th Circuit Court Decision Overruling ATF Ban
PIERRE, S.D. – South Dakota Attorney General Marty Jackley praises a recent U.S. 8thCircuit Court reversal on a federal ATF rule banning pistol braces.
The 8th Circuit Court overruled a U.S. District Court of North Dakota Judge who had earlier denied a preliminary injunction against the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) rule on pistol stabilizing braces. A coalition of 24 states, including South Dakota, had filed a lawsuit in 2023 against that ATF rule.
“This is another victory against a federal bureaucracy that tries to take away individual rights,” said Attorney General Jackley. “Our Second Amendment is a very significant and recognizable individual right.”
The proposed ATF rule also was rejected earlier by a Texas federal court.

What needs to be banned are ATF bureaucrat rule makers.
Excellent. To much government. They have more issues to fix, like 6 1/2% interest rates.
It is amazing how the modern MAGA party thinks that the courts who are claiming bump stocks and extended handles are protected by the Second Amendment will side with them and say if you use marijuana (legally), you give up the Second Amendment. Their logic has no consistency, only the unrestrained desire to control other people’s lives.
