Since so many pro-gun folks are supporting the anti-gun "sporting firearm" idea instituted in the '68 Gun Control Act, I agree it is certainly here to stay.
As for this case settlement, the "military equipment" definition says nothing about semi-auto firearms being either "sporting guns" or "weapons of war."
I don't see any advancement of gun rights coming from pro-gun people continuing to reinforce the "sporting vs military/good gun vs bad gun" concept.
However, I think that the settlement in this particular case will probably have no effect one way or the other. So no, it is not a 2A win. It is status quo.
