The 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals has ruled that the federal law prohibiting handgun sales to individuals aged 18-20 violates the Second Amendment. The court's decision reflects a pivotal shift in gun rights following recent Supreme Court rulings that favor broader interpretation of the Second Amendment. The ruling sends the case back for further proceedings while societal and political debates about gun rights and regulations continue. Some advocates warn this ruling could increase gun access for the youth, impacting public safety.
