GeorgiaCarry.Org v. U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, No. 14-13739 (11th Cir. 2015)
Annotate this CasePlaintiffs filed suit raising a Second Amendment challenge to a regulation, 36 C.F.R. 327.13, banning firearms and ammunition on property managed by the Corps. Plaintiffs would like to carry their handguns with them while they visit and camp at Allatoona Lake and other Corps property. The district court denied plaintiffs' motions for a preliminary injunction. The court affirmed the district court's order and remanded for further proceedings, concluding that the regulation does not completely destroy plaintiffs' right to bear arms because its effects is cabined to a limited geographic area designed for recreation. Because plaintiffs have not shown a substantial likelihood of success on the merits, the court need not consider the remaining factors in the preliminary injunction test. Whatever else the regulation does, it does not destroy plaintiffs’ Second Amendment right to keep and bear arms altogether.
