The Second Amendment's historical tradition test, established in recent Supreme Court rulings like Bruen, requires that firearm regulations must have historical analogues in American tradition; since no previous technological advances in firearms (from single-shot cap-and-ball pistols to revolvers, breech-loading rifles, lever-action guns, and semi-automatic firearms) resulted in bans, modern attempts to ban semi-automatic rifles like the AR-15 lack historical and legal support under constitutional precedent.

AR-15 Ban COLLAPSES Under History & Supreme Court Scrutiny | 2A Debate EXPLODESAdded:
that suggests this ban would be okay. I mean, you've had circuit courts had to they've got to go out of their way and say, "Well, these semi-automatic firearms, I mean, they're like machine guns. So, that means we can ban them."
>> Well, no, they're not.
>> No, they're not. No, you can't.
>> not like machine guns. Um you know, there is nothing in the historical record that shows when we had advances in firearms technology, the response was, "Well, let's ban them." Right? I mean, and you think about the technological leap between, you know, the single-shot cap-and-ball pistol to the revolver, to, you know, the breech-loading rifle, to the lever-action gun, to semi-automatic firearms, at no point did did a state or the federal government say, "Whoa, whoa, whoa. This is Ban the advancements.
>> much for Right, exactly. Right? So, >> Yeah, you nailed it.
>> Why Why would this now what, almost 60-year-old model of a of a rifle suddenly be too high-powered, too dangerous, too militaristic for us to own? Yeah. Um it just makes no sense from a from a legal standpoint.
