Opinion in Kittson (Ninth Circuit machine gun case.)
Schroeder and Owens in majority, VanDyke in dissent.
Not a surprising result. We did an amicus in this one but I was not hopeful. Summary of ruling and dissent:
This one wasn't your typical machine gun case you often see these days (gang member with Glock switch). Instead, Kittson was charged with trying to arrange a transfer a PPSh-41 to an undercover officer. That's a WW2-era gun, and not some common weapon of modern criminals.
