Supreme Court 2A Update: Duncan v. Bonta Moves Forward!

Since our reply brief has now been filed, along with amicus briefs from multiple supporters, including 27 state Attorneys General, last week the U.S. Supreme Court formally distributed the case of Duncan v. Bonta for consideration at a court conference. The justices are scheduled to consider the case at their November 21st conference, where they may decide whether to grant review. The Court could have denied the petition outright, but instead it placed Duncan into active consideration—an encouraging development for all who support the Second Amendment.

This means the case is now squarely before the Court—a major step forward for what could become the next landmark Second Amendment decision.

Meanwhile, Tuesday’s election results have emboldened gun-control advocates and anti-gun lawmakers. We can expect even more anti-2A bills to be introduced in 2026, making it absolutely critical that the Supreme Court reinforces and clarifies the Bruen standard to protect law-abiding gun owners and strike down unconstitutional laws.
