The National Rifle Association has sued Florida after it passed a gun control law in the wake of a school shooting last month that left 17 people dead.
Governor Rick Scott, a Republican and staunch ally of the gun lobby, enacted the bill.
The law raises the legal age for buying rifles in Florida, but also allows the training and arming of school staff.
It does not ban semi-automatic rifles like the one used in the 14 February massacre in Parkland.
