As an old college buddy used to say, “The things yuh see when yuh ain’t got a gun…”
Pardon Me for Asking
A question struck me in all this rights restoration brouhaha: How do you answer Section B.21.d. on the 4473? If the form needs to be modified, that’s another drawn-out rule change.
I’m also thinking some poor slob who was innocent but pleaded to a domestic violence misdemeanor to avoid made up felony charges he couldn’t afford to fight will never get his rights restored because it’s too much of a political third rail. Or basically anybody charged under Lautenberg…
A Common Mistake
ATF’s newly updated registry shows 6,654,209 suppressors, more than 1.2 million short-barreled rifles, and over 8.1 million registered items across four major NFA categories. In this video, we examine how the government’s own numbers strengthen the “common use” argument under Heller, Caetano, and Bruen—and further undermine the constitutional foundation of the National Firearms Act. [Watch]
Yeah, well, don’t get too comfortable with “common use” being the cutoff for protected arms.

How ’bout “Ni UNA Más”…?
F_n’ idiots.
So… ya think Everytown/Moms Demand, Brady, Giffords, and Newtown Alliance will take back their endorsements?

A Stark Reminder
Received via email:
And remember, you will be doing these things at the Stark County Fair, a family-friendly community event with something for everyone. [More]
I asked them if they had something for me:
For the record, will I be able to lawfully carry a firearm there, including in enclosed buildings?
What is NRA doing about existing bans?

I’ll let you know if they reply.
Today’s Lime Pit Candidate
“Communism, at the heart of it all, is a system of government that puts the power back into the hands of the people.”
Pure communism, as envisioned by Marx, is a stateless society. The reason useful idiots say we’ve never tried it is because once in power, instead of giving it up, those running the “dictatorship of the proletariat” prove the axiom about absolute power. I’m sure he’s never read the works– gets his platitudes from Instagram– good grief.
Working class means you’re a worker, which obviously leaves this loser out.
What a f_n’ citizenship malpractitioner moron, who is clueless as to what happens when useful idiots are no longer needed and get redesignated as useless eaters.
And DSA’s “burning hatred” of the Constitution means its candidates are incapable of taking the required oath of office, meaning they must either be disqualified beforehand, have the seat withheld if they refuse to take it, or expelled and tried for perjury if they do.
DOJ Launches New Process for Gun Rights Restoration
With all the high-fiving going on in the gun community over this announcement, keeping things in perspective is needed to temper the enthusiasm and maintain progress on advancing the right to keep and bear arms. [More]
The continuation of this program is as secure as the outcome in the upcoming elections.
And the question just struck me: How do you answer Section B.21.d. on the 4473? If the form needs to be modified, that’s another drawn-out rule change.

Hawaii gunowner targets Denver open-carry ban [More]
Didn’t the Supreme Court say back in 1856 that a citizen has “the right to enter every other State whenever they pleased… and to keep and carry arms wherever they went”…?
Framing the Terms
A judge in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Texas has ruled in favor of the Second Amendment Foundation (SAF) and Defense Distributed in Defense Distributed v. Blanche (formerly VanDerStok v. Bondi), holding the ATF’s “Frame or Receiver” Rule, which expanded the definition of a “firearm,” unconstitutional on both Second Amendment and due process grounds.

How many others have never emerged to the other side?
So, he got the charges dismissed and his record expunged (40 minute mark). Who thinks rights restoration for non-Only Ones is a New Jersey priority?

Catch-22 and FU
Connecticut gun dealers forced to suffer yet another no-sales day… The State of Connecticut does not allow gun dealers to run their own NICS computer checks. It insists on running the checks for them, as well as a half-dozen other state checks… “I’m not saying that the State of Connecticut is intentionally doing it, but it’s been consistent enough lately.” [More]
Of course they’re doing it intentionally. Knowing this is a recurring problem that denies citizens their rights and costs already struggling dealers a lot of money — and not making it a priority to fix it — is just another way gun-hating Connecticut Democrats are saying “F_ you, die.”
RKBA advocates there ought to file a FOIA with SLFU (!) for all internal government correspondence/emails, minutes, instructions, records, etc.
What the ‘Gunfluencers’ Refuse to Admit
We are losing Texas. Unconstrained immigration has introduced cultures that have no intention of assimilating to become Americans. Political Islam is on the march, undeterred by federal, state, or local action. [More]
Don’t tell me.
Tell Ranjit, Stephen, Kostas, Hannah, and Cam.
Tell self-blinded gun owners who agree with them on this without ever taking the challenge.

DOJ Gun Rights Restoration Rule Is a Good Move—But Questions Remain
The need to apply consistent criteria is not only a matter of basic fairness, but of law. The release of requested records, without disclosing exempt information, will help ensure that. [More]
Think of it as a good first step, but remember what they say about a journey of a thousand miles.
The Problem States
Several states currently have laws that require some form of approval from the Federal government under the current National Firearms Act (NFA). These states will have to pass new legislation to make suppressor ownership legal under the laws should deregulation proceed. If things progress quickly, you may not be able to buy a suppressor in these states. [More]
How’s your state doing?
I see suicidal Ohio Republicans have their thumbs up their hindquarters.
Suppressor Victory Celebrations Must Be Tempered With Reality
The Texas suppressor ruling is a major win for gun owners, but legal limits, political spin, and unanswered questions mean the fight is far from over. [More]

Our State Fair is a Great State Fair!
According to Wisconsin Administrative Code, we do.
Ditto for Summit County Fair officials and complicit Ohio Republicans.
Sure have come a long way since Pat Boone, haven’t we?
