It was later contested in the Supreme Court and they kept the injunction in place. So Trump is not the only President to have his authority challenged, same with Bill Clinton, he had one of his Executive Orders invalidated by a Federal Appeals Court.

So going back to Trump doing something about Guns, he needs Congress to act, he cannot do it alone, otherwise any future President can come in and just revert a prior Executive Order.
You are more than welcome - does that mean the other 50+ Executive Orders Trumplethinskin has signed, without Congressional sign-off or Judicial challenge, don’t count?

Funny how with one President it’s a "blatant abuse of executive power.", but with another, it’s not...
