Why did the court overturn the gun sales ban for young adults?

The U.S. Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals ruled that banning handgun sales to individuals aged 18 to 20 violates the Second Amendment. The court emphasized that constitutional rights apply equally to all adults, including those under 21, and historical evidence does not support such age-based restrictions. This decision overturned previous gun control measures and challenged the Biden administration’s push for tighter regulations. While celebrated by gun rights advocates, it sparked concerns from safety groups, who fear increased firearm-related incidents.
