After six months of uncertainty awaiting the Supreme Court's decision in Vanderstok v. Bondi, the ruling has finally been issued. Unfortunately, the scope of this ruling is much narrower than anticipated, addressing only a specific type of firearm parts kit that was not relevant to Tate's case. While this decision should not directly impact the case-either positively or negatively-it does affirm a crucial point that the prosecutors have yet to acknowledge. Specifically, for a gun part to be classified as a firearm receiver, four unambiguous features must be present. None of Tate's items possess all of these required features, which means that none of them qualify as illegal firearms. This situation highlights the disconnect between the prosecutors seeking to keep Tate incarcerated and the reality of the law. The prosecution appears to be knowingly and maliciously attempting to mislead the court by asserting that unregulated parts are equivalent to machine guns.
