Snope was already vacated and remanded after Bruen, so now that it's back there's a chance the court grants cert, certainly more so than the RI magazine case which this is the first time it has been appealed up to SCOTUS. Tho, let's say the court takes up Snope and strikes down AWB and does the V&R for the magazine case... does the court really think what they rule and the guidance in the Snope case is going to change anything with how the lower courts have ruled on magazine capacity laws? I think not, the only facet of the RI case is the lack of grandfathering, which is a wholesale ban on any magazine over 10 rounds. AFAIK, that's among the most draconian of all the more recent magazine capacity laws in the nation.

Does SCOTUS really care about that? IDK, they might, but this court seems pretty content with not touching state based restrictions on the 2nd Amendment, so until they grand cert on a state level regulation affecting the 2nd Amendment, I am not convinced they have any interest or intent to ever do so.
