The likely outcome is that the Court will issue a new opinion upholding the revised DoJ position, which is that suppressors are indeed #RTKBA #AmendmentII protected arms, based on prior #SCOTUS precedent (cf: Heller, McDonald, Bruen, Rahimi), but it is highly likely that the Court will opine that suppressors are still subject to the additional background checks and fees of #NFA1934 (at least, until Congress removes them from the #NFA, which is probable, currently in process). #USpol #ConLaw

#Flamethrowers should absolutely be regulated under #NFA1934 as incendiary "destructive devices", as codified in 26 USC 5845 (f):

' The term “destructive device” means (1) any explosive, incendiary, or poison gas (A) bomb, (B) grenade, (C) rocket having a propellent charge of more than four ounces, (D) missile having an explosive or incendiary charge of more than one-quarter ounce, (E) mine, or (F) similar device; '

operative words here: "incendiary" and "similar device"
