The Supreme Court on Monday agreed to hear a challenge to restrictions on the carrying of firearms outside the home, teeing up a potentially landmark dispute over the scope of the Second Amendment.
In an unsigned order, the justices took up a bid by two gun owners and a New York affiliate of the National Rifle Association (NRA) to challenge the state’s denial of their applications for concealed-carry licenses for self-defense.
The case will be heard next term, which begins in October.
