Fair number of progun folks are seeing problems with the historical rule and it is not such a genius move as originally or originallistically (LOL) thought.

Never a fan of the rule. I was in favor of direct and clear statments on licensing, locals and bans. Not a procedural and ambiguous rabbit hole. Nor was remanding the 4 cases to scold the lower courts a good idea when they could have been decided if Scotus already knew the constitutionality of the issues. Similarly, not sustaining the TRO is NYS' CCIA challenges to respect the procedure of the lower courts while denying basic rights was similarly quite disappointing.

…Rahimi exposes two different problems with Bruen: The first problem is that its command to courts to measure contemporary gun regulations by the yardstick of “historical analogues” yields a profoundly subjective test that will lead principled judges acting reasonably to reach diametrically opposed conclusions about the same laws. As Rahimi makes clear, whether a historical example is sufficiently “analogous” will almost always be in the eye of the beholder.
