The US Supreme Court granted cert in two AWB cases, Viramontes v Cook County in Illinois and Grant v Higgins in Connecticut litigated by the Second Amendment Foundation, FIrearms Policiy Coalition, and Connecticut Citizens Defense League (Grant). I expect to get a fierce ruling next June that will exceed that of the Wolford opinion. It will also demoralize the HI legislatures attempt to pass a AWB, allow us to finally get rid of our pistol magazine ban, and get us on the path to get SBRs/suppressors later.

The question before SCOTUS: Whether the Second and Fourteenth Amendments guarantee the right to possess AR-15 platform and similar semiautomatic rifles.

LET'S GOOOOOO
Would magazine limits be covered in either of these cases, or just "assault weapon" language?

It's not specifically in the question before SCOTUS. However I expect a good opnion will cover parts and accessories, which in turn will be used in HIFICOs Abbott v Lopez lawsuit on magazine bans and NAGRs NAGR v. Shikada on magazines and assault pistol bans, along with California's magazine ban in Duncan vs Bonta which has gone through the complete appeal process twice in the 9th.
