Suppressor and Short Barrel Firearm Fight Shows Many U.S. States More Prohibitive Than Some Foreign Countries

…Republicans are looking to Parliamentarian of the Senate Elizabeth MacDonough to make her determination on if such measures will survive the “Byrd bath” or become “Byrd droppings.” [More]

Politicians sure do come up with all kinds of convoluted complications over something as simple as “shall not be infringed.”

RELATED UPDATE

I ended the piece with GOA’s latest announcement that “the Senate’s version of the “One Big Beautiful Bill” now includes full repeal of the $200 NFA tax on: Suppressors Short-barreled rifles (SBRs) Short-barreled shotguns (SBSs) “Any Other Weapons” (AOWs).”

Here’s the rev. of the bill. Start on pg. 261.

Nothing like emboldening gun-grabbers and eroding respect for law…

And speaking of Firearms News articles, the June 2025 issue (pictured above) with three of my articles (“Supreme Court Avoids New York Second Amendment Infringements” (p. 10), “A Tale of Two Revolutions” (p.12), and “ATF and DOJ Continue Abuses While Being Bipolar on Guns” (p. 14), is now on display at diverse and inclusive newsstands throughout the Republic.

Trump Administration Position on Machine Guns – Not 2A Protected

This Position Undermines Its Second Amendment Credibility [More]

If machine guns aren’t protected, the Second Amendment is a dead letter and anyone who maintains otherwise is a fraud.

Speaking of Using Full Might…

Adamiak is about to start the third year of his 20-year federal prison sentence because the ATF reworked his legal inert RPGs until they were capable of firing a single 7.62x39mm round. [More]

Hey, go with what works, right?

You can learn more about that and how they exploited a malfunction to put another vet away in a recent Firearms News piece.

What did Pam Bondi say?

‘”It is the policy of this Department of Justice to use its full might to protect the Second Amendment rights of law-abiding citizens.”

Biden’s Secret ‘Pillars’ Sought to Smear 2A Supporters as Domestic Terrorists

They didn’t want you to know that owning guns and advocating for the Second Amendment officially made you a terror suspect while they conducted a propaganda campaign to convince low-information voters that’s exactly what you are. The intent here is to impose citizen disarmament edicts on the entire Republic similar to what we find in Democrat states that have given up on the Second Amendment, and as we see in those states, what they’ve enacted is never enough. [More]

They’ve called us Nazis, fascists, racists, and “the greatest threat,” all with intent to disarm us. Why not add “terrorist” to the list?

Current Wild Swings of the Gun Control Pendulum

Replacing Joe Biden’s Office of Gun Violence Prevention with an Office of Second Amendment Protection, with liaison members like new ATF Chief Counsel Leider, would mean no more surprises, no more cognitively dissonant legal positions, and no more disheartening gun owner who are feeling used, abandoned and betrayed. [More]

All this back-and-forth has got to stop.

A Tale of Two Revolutions

In Contrasting Ideals, Faria not only introduces us to key “players” in both revolutions, like Maximilien Robespierre and other Reign of Terror figures like Jean-Paul Marat, whose differences with “Founding Fathers” like George Washington and Thomas Jefferson could not have been more pronounced. For rebellions that seemingly had so much in common at the outset, the goals of those driving them were antithetical. [More]

If you’re not familiar with the teachings of Dr. Miguel A. Faria, Jr., you’ve denied yourself the opportunity of learning from the best. If you are familiar, do yourself a favor by reading this, and your friends a favor by then recommending it to them.

Trump’s ‘Royal Road’ to Citizenship Leads in Wrong Direction for ‘Gun Rights’

Most are opposed to anyone outside of the government bearing arms, and it’s safe to assume once granted citizenship, they’ll vote that way. [More]

It shouldn’t just be about money, and a complete Bill of Rights culture, with a Second Amendment that precedent shows most will vote against, is what enabled this country to become so prosperous in the first place.

Will Present Legal Arguments Undermine Future Efforts to Restore Second Amendment?

It’s taking care of our immediate needs. However, the Founders bequeathed us a constitution intended “to secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity.” If this is all we concern ourselves with, what are we bequeathing to them? Semiautomatic firearm technology that’s already 140 years old…? In a world where technological developments and breakthroughs are being introduced seemingly exponentially, what new “terrible implements” will become standard issue in the next 140 years? [More]

In avoiding legal traps today, care must be taken not to catch ourselves in a more dangerous one tomorrow.

Trump’s Gun Pledges Forgotten In First Week On The Job

Unprecedented Onslaught of Executive Actions Aimed at Fulfilling Campaign Promises, But Nothing for Guns [More]

He promised ““Every single Biden attack on gun owners and manufacturers will be terminated on my very first week back in office, perhaps my first day,” but since taking office has not done anything about it.

Bottom Line Republicans Didn’t Question Bondi on Her Anti-Gun Positions

How she ultimately conducts herself, despite her assurances to the Committee about resisting undue pressures from the White House, will reflect squarely on Donald Trump. He nominated her with full knowledge that her past actions rendered her unacceptable to many Second Amendment advocates counting on him to honor his campaign promises. [More]

So, it’s Bondi’s job as AG is to defend the law, regardless…? The Second Amendment is part of “the supreme Law of the Land.”

President Trump Can Lead in Fight Against State-Level 2nd Amendment Infringements

“What are you going to do about it, President Trump?” [More]

First, we neeed to realistically look at what he CAN do. Then we need to realistically look at what he WILL do and use every means at our disposal to get his ear and try to keep him on course.

Let’s Keep Things in Perspective, Please

The 100 Labour Party staffers who traveled to the U.S. to campaign against Donald Trump and in support of Kamala Harris may face serious legal consequences under the Foreign Agents Registration Act (FARA). 💥 Acting as unregistered foreign agents is a federal offense. By interfering in America’s election, these Labour operatives crossed a dangerous line. [More]

Oh, lighten up. It’s not as if they criticized “migrants” on Facebook or owned a TV without a license…
