A Utah man’s legal challenge to the federal ban on bump stocks was reheard by the 10th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals on Wednesday.

Much of the discussion was about whether the The Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives overstepped its authority when it defined bump stocks as machine guns in order to prohibit them under federal law.

A three-judge panel last year ruled against Clark Aposhian’s request to temporarily block the ban while his legal challenge is ongoing, but the full court agreed to reconsider that panel’s decision during a virtual hearing — the first time the full court heard an argument virtually.
