A group of firearms dealers, local residents and gun rights organizations, including the NRA, have filed a federal lawsuit against a long list of Bay Area public officials demanding that gun stores – ordered closed as non-essential businesses under the region’s shelter-in-place orders to slow the spread of COVID-19 – be allowed to reopen immediately.

Filed Tuesday with the U.S. District Court for Northern California, the lawsuit is centered on the claim that the shuttering of gun stores by Bay Area counties is a violation of Second Amendment rights. It was filed the same day that a six-county Bay Area coalition extended the regional stay-at-home order to May 3, in which gun stores were again not classified as essential businesses like grocery stores and banks, which are allowed to remain open.
