The article offers information on the U.S. Supreme Court case Garland v. VanDerStok, which examines the legality of an ATF regulation defining firearm receivers as "firearms" under the Gun Control Act. The cases discussed include the federal government's argument to uphold the ATF rule to address the rise in untraceable "ghost guns," the respondents' challenge asserting ATF overreach beyond congressional authority, and the justices' inquiries into the technical and legal thresholds.
