FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

May 31, 2023

Washington, D.C. – This evening, Judge Drew B. Tipton issued a preliminary injunction against the Biden Pistol Brace Ban in a lawsuit brought by Gun Owners of America (GOA), the Gun Owners Foundation (GOF), and the State of Texas. This injunction applies to all members of Gun Owners of America and individuals employed directly by the State of Texas or its agencies.

This new rule from the ATF, which was slated to take effect on June 1st, stood to make millions of Americans felons overnight if they were caught in possession of an unregistered braced firearm. Researchers estimate that up to 40 million of these firearms are currently owned by law-abiding citizens.

Erich Pratt, GOA’s Senior Vice President, issued the following statement:      

“This assault on millions of Americans was just the latest example of President Biden trying to weaponize the DOJ against law-abiding gun owners, and we doubt it will be the last. We are incredibly grateful to Judge Tipton for hearing the pleas of our members who were facing serious prosecution simply for owning a piece of plastic – all because of an arbitrary reclassification by the ATF. GOA and our millions of members nationwide will continue to fight back against this rogue anti-gun
