September 9, 2020
A Texas gun owner who sued the federal government over its bump stock ban argued his case in federal court Wednesday.
Michael Cargill, of Austin, sued the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) and the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) in 2019, claiming the government violated his rights when he was ordered to “destroy or surrender his device or face criminal prosecution,” his suit stated.
