The recent District of Columbia v. Heller decision by the SCOUS makes the last paragraph inaccurate. The experts in this field should update the article. Gentgeen ( talk) 06:51, 30 June 2008 (UTC) reply

OK, I deleted the Nordyke material. Some of these articles on gun laws seem to trudge though court decisions that have been reversed, vacated or overruled. This kind of detail is of interest to lawyers (full disclosure: I am a lawyer), but perhaps it's not as important for the typical readers of Wikipedia, most of whom are not lawyers.
