As stated in the title the Supreme Court has granted cert to a significant 2A related case, again out of New York.

The fear of the anti 2A crowd, and the hope of the pro side, is that any major 2A case will grant the court room to expand on, and clarify, the Heller decision. This case is certainly significant enough to do exactly that and with a reliable 5-4 balance in favor of the 2A on the court this could absolutely become that opportunity.
The really interesting thing will be if Chuck Schumer threatens the court again if they seem inclined to vote the "wrong way".
