Well that’s cause it’s a made up term.

I was quoting from the 4th Circuit.

Which is kind of the opposite of the 1939 decision upholding restrictions on sawed-off shotguns because they were NOT typical military weapons.
ETA United States v Miller
The Miller decision was wrong and had no real opposition. Short barreled shotguns were in fact used by the military at the time.
I know that wasn't your point and your point was correct.

You keep posting this as though it means anything legally outside of the US 4th Circuit. Supreme Court denials of certiorari do not convey any opinion of the Supreme Court on the merits of the case and have no legal effect on other US Circuits.

Yea. It means they declined to review it.
One reason could be is that there doesn't seem to be a clear dispute between the circuits.

Busted. You quoted the Heller Court and failed to include the entire quote. It ends up stating the exact opposite of what you claim it says. You are just another dishonest liberal. Surprise surprise.

I post it in response to specific posts.
It's a fact.
It is also a fact that 3 other circuits that have made similar rulings, giving legal to a total of 4 circuits..

The Truth about Assault Weapons
The link is a slideshow and does a good job of explaining the differences between them and other guns.

You post it as if it is some sort of indication of the courts stance.
You are either intentionally deceptive or extraordinarily ignorant. Which is It?

The 4th Circuit opinion does not show that Maryland defined assault weapon, per se, but instead provides a list of the banned weapons, which I have posted.

And absolutely zero Federal Circuit Court decisions carry binding precedent over the country as a whole.

Not sure that case is applicable.
From Wiki with footnotes
quote:
The Court then identified three reasons why the Massachusetts court's opinion contradicted prior rulings by the United States Supreme Court.
First, the Massachusetts court said that stun guns could be banned because they "were not in common use at the time of the Second Amendment’s enactment", but the Supreme Court noted that this contradicted Heller's conclusion that Second Amendment protects "arms ... that were not in existence at the time of the founding”.[10]
Second, the Massachusetts court said that stun guns were "dangerous per se at common law and unusual" because they were "a thoroughly modern invention", but the Supreme Court held that this was also inconsistent with Heller.[11]
Third, the Massachusetts court said that stun guns could be banned because they were not "readily adaptable to use in the military", but the Supreme Court held that Heller rejected the argument that "only those weapons useful in warfare" were protected by the Second Amendment.[12]

I get it now. You just don't understand what you are reading. The case is saying the Massachusetts courts were wrong and that heller allows for ownership of the stun gun. It was decided unanimously. That is a huge blow to the "point" you are trying to make and is on point.

Denial of cert is not dispositive.
Of course, you wouldn't know that.
