Eighth Circuit dicta says Second Amendment is individual right.
3. United States v. Hutzell (8th Cir. July 5)
http://caselaw.findlaw.com/data2/circs/8th/993719P.pdf
“an individual’s right to keep and bear arms is constitutionally protected,
see United States v. Miller, 307 U.S. 174, 178-79 (1939).”
This calls into question an earlier Eighth Circuit cases purporting to
assert that the Second Amendment does not protect an individual right.
U.S. v. Hale, 978 F.2d 1016 (8th Cir. 1992)

See also United States v. Nelson, 859 F.2d 1318 (8th Cir. 1988).
The Hale and Nelson cases were inconsistent with a prior Eighth Circuit case
affirming a District Court decision that the
Second Amendment does protect an individual right. US v. Wiley, 309 F. Supp.
141, 145 (D. Minn. 1970), aff’d, 438 F.2d 773 (8th Cir. 1971).
