US appeals court makes decision on landmark California ammunition background checks case

A divided federal appeals court on Thursday said California’s first-of-its-kind law requiring firearm owners to undergo background checks to buy ammunition is unconstitutional, violating the Second Amendment right to bear arms. In a 2-1 vote, the 9th US Circuit Court of Appeals in Pasadena, California upheld a lower court judge’s permanent injunction against enforcing the law. Circuit Judge Sandra Ikuta said the law “meaningfully constrains” people’s right to keep and bear arms.
