Scalia was pretty aggressive with questioning that line about firearms in common use, and questioning the 1986 ban, but it seemed rhetorical rather than a substantive line of support for a repeal to the machine gun ban. He was trying to get them to differentiate between the two rather than pushing for an argument in that direction. During oral arguments, everyone shied from trying to make that connection.

(until they are invented at the very least) I was very impressed with how well the justice’s held to a middle line.
