A federal appeals court on Friday struck down New Jersey’s decades-old ban on so-called assault weapons and large-capacity magazines, ruling that the state’s restrictions on AR-15-style rifles and magazines holding more than 10 rounds violate the Second Amendment.

The 3rd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals ruled in a 10-5 decision that New Jersey’s restrictions cannot survive the historical test established by the Supreme Court’s 2022 New York State Rifle & Pistol Association v. Bruen, which held that modern gun restrictions should follow “this nation’s ​historical tradition of ⁠firearm regulation.”
