The US Supreme Court is set to review the legality of assault weapons bans. This decision comes as the court has previously expanded gun rights. The case involves bans on semiautomatic rifles, including the AR-15, in certain areas.

The court will consider whether these bans violate the Second Amendment. The areas affected by the bans are located in Connecticut and the Chicago-area.
