Looks like more good things are happening as a result of this decision. SCOTUS has granted certiorari in several cases vacating the decisions and remanding them back down to the lower courts with instructions to apply the guidelines outlined in the recent 2A decision.
I think a couple of them were magazine ban related in NJ and Cali and one was related to an assault weapon case I believe in Maryland and another carry related case in Hawaii. Anyway, here is a video that goes into the details.
Young v. Hawaii — Challenges Hawaii’s ban on open carry as infringing citizens’ Second Amendment right to bear firearms outside the home.
Bianchi v. Frosh — Challenges Maryland’s “assault weapons” ban under Heller’s common use language.
ANJRPC v. Grewal — Challenges New Jersey’s “high capacity” magazine ban for violating the Second Amendment, the takings clause of the Fifth Amendment, and the equal protection clause of the Fourteenth Amendment.
Duncan v. Bonta — Challenges California’s “high capacity” magazine ban as violating the Second and Fifth Amendments as well as the two-step interest-balancing process explicitly repudiated in the Bruen ruling.

I guess all these cases have been on hold pending the outcome of this case and they were basically in layman’s terms vacated and sent back down the chain for a redo with instructions to apply the guidelines outlined in this decision.Yes, per TTAG:
Yes. The court's way of saying "We already answered this question. We dont need to write another opinion. Go back and use our recent precedent to make your ruling. "I guess all these cases have been on hold pending the outcome of this case and they were basically in layman’s terms vacated and sent back down the chain for a redo with instructions to apply the guidelines outlined in this decision.
This decision in our favor was vitally important and set the wheels in motion back our way.
Yep the lower courts are going to have a difficult time coming up with a valid decision to uphold any bans or restrictions related to common arms and ammunition now. There were no restrictions associated within the historical text of the 2nd amendment banning types of arms nor were there any historical restrictions placed on ammunition.Of great import is how Thomas wrote his decision regarding how to interpret 2nd Amendment when scrutinizing various 2nd Amendment related laws.

In the grand scheme, that is an even bigger win than the destruction of the may issue laws.Yep the lower courts are going to have a difficult time coming up with a valid decision to uphold any bans or restrictions related to common arms and ammunition now.

This goes along with the 9th Ckt Court remanding the Calif. Assault Weapons Ban back to the Calif. District Court. I expect there will be more of them from various Ckt Courts. When a GVR (Grant hearing or certiorari, vacate and remand) occurs, it's the higher court telling the lower one to revisit their decision - that it won't stand as-is.
NJ is trying to pull their same old shenanigans in defiance of the SCOTUS ruling. Things like guns and ammo registries and microstamping etc....
There's a good chance that an end may be in sight to the California "assault weapons" ban.This goes along with the 9th Ckt Court remanding Rupp v Bonta, the Calif. Assault Weapons Ban challenge, back to the Central Calif. District Court that had ruled in favor of Bonta (versus the two San Diego cases). I expect there will be more of them from various Ckt Courts. When a GVR (Grant hearing or certiorari, vacate and remand) occurs, it's the higher court telling the lower one to revisit their decision - that it won't stand as-is.
Now Delaware has jumped into the fray with both feet passing several soon to be unconstitutional gun control bills. Just more fodder to be litigated.
It's like a bunch of monkeys flinging poo in all directions now in defiance of SCOTUS.
Reminds me of two year-olds throwing violent tantrums in the grocery store, kicking and shrieking on the floor, because mommy wouldn't buy the gummy bears. They're pandering to their political base, to whip them into a frenzy to volunteer for campaigns and deliver votes.
