Default Re: Federal firearms act cannot be used in case

Quote:
Notice how the Feds can't supersede state or local laws on firearms, also considering the Heller decision supports that same position, the states can regulate firearms over the feds.
I find this confusing...

I was always taught that Federal Law supersedes State Law, and that states couldn't pass or retain laws that contradict Federal statutes.

(Not talking just about gun laws here... I'm talking all areas of law).

And in the follow-up article, it appears that is the case... Fed always trumps State.
