A Forced Reset

NAGR wins lawsuit against ATF trigger ban … The ATF may appeal this ruling, but precedent and momentum are both on our side, and we fully anticipate the absolute end of the ATF’s unlawful, unconstitutional ban on forced reset triggers. [More]

They’ll appeal because they have unlimited tax plunder to do it with and dragging things out and making plaintiffs spend their hard-won funds is part of the game.

NAGR is doing a good job of late, especially at refuting an old image.

Deliberate Indifference

Seventh Circuit U.S. Court of Appeals denies motion for en banc hearing of challenge against Illinois’ gun and magazine ban. “No judge in regular active service has requested a vote on the petition for rehearing en banc, and all members of the original panel have voted to deny panel rehearing,” the docket said Monday. “The petition for rehearing and rehearing en banc is therefore DENIED.” [More]

Will this be a catalyst for SCOTUS?

The Same Except They’re Different

The argument that commercially available, AR-type firearms are somehow less dangerous or lethal simply because they fire only in semi-automatic mode is misleading. They retain the identical performance capabilities and characteristics (save full-automatic capability) as initially intended for use in combat. [More]

Oh, is that all? Spread that lie under oath!

Also from the linked Exhibit:

As mentioned previously in this report, many of the firearms prohibited by the Ordinances directly trace their origins to those developed for use in combat. As such, these firearms were never initially intended for general distribution or sale to the public.

Except if we’re talking ARs, and of course he is, guess which one came first:

“Colt sent a pilot model rifle (serial no. GX4968) to the BATF for civilian sale approval on Oct. 23, 1963. It was approved on Dec. 10, 1963, and sales of the ‘Model R6000 Colt AR-15 SP1 Sporter Rifle’ began on Jan 2, 1964,” one critic of the article contended. “The M16 wasn’t issued to infantry units until 1965 (as the XM16E1), wasn’t standardized as the M16A1 until 1967, and didn’t officially replace the M14 until 1969.”

Tell me this Yurgealitis trough feeder isn’t cognizant of Founding intent and is incentivized by those who fear that and obscure it through gaslighting.

And tangentially related:

As predicted, they’re taking full advantage of Scalia’s critical error.

In re later “Bowie knives” edicts and the like, does anyone have a record of such laws ever being challenged on Second Amendment grounds and such bans being upheld and/or appealed to a higher court?

The Great Forced Reset

Federal Judge Issues Order Blocking ATF Classification of Forced Reset Triggers as Machine Guns – The National Association for Gun Rights was granted a temporary restraining order in its Lawsuit against the ATF, National Association for Gun Rights v. Garland, in federal court in the Northern District of Texas. [More]

More and more NAGR is showing itself to be a major player on the national scene worthy of support. It’s time to bury the hatchet.

Going with What Works

Today, the National Association for Gun Rights filed a lawsuit against the ATF, National Association for Gun Rights v. Garland, in federal court in the Northern District of Texas. This action was filed in the same appellate circuit that ruled earlier this year that bump stocks are not machine guns in Cargill v. Garland. [More]

More and more NAGR is showing itself to be a major player on the national scene worthy of support. Perhaps it’s time to bury the past.

A Multipronged Attack

On September 7, 2022, the National Foundation for Gun Rights filed five new lawsuits in four federal court circuits to eliminate unconstitutional magazine and gun bans everywhere! Combined with our lawsuits in Colorado these represent nearly half of the country. This nationwide legal blitz aims to take out every single ban on semi-automatic weapons and standard capacity magazines for good. [More]

I’d feel better about these if the lawsuits included acknowledgment of core purpose and that the function of the Militia, defined as “all males physically capable of acting in concert for the common defense [and] bearing arms supplied by themselves and of the kind in common use at the time,” was — and still is — to field citizen soldiers. These citizens bore arms that were suitable for that purpose, “ordinary military equipment” intended to be taken into “common defense” battles.

That said, isn’t it time for SAF to make peace with Dudley?

A Superior Observation

[T]he Court is unaware of historical precedent that would permit a governmental entity to entirely ban a type of weapon that is commonly used by law-abiding citizens for lawful purposes, whether in an individual’s home or in public. The Court also notes that the Town’s justifications are somewhat undermined by the other subsections of this very provision. Specifically, subsection (b)(1) provides that “[a]ny person holding a valid federal firearms license from possession of any firearm authorized pursuant to such license” will not be subject to the prohibition of 10-9-40. The following subsection, (b)(2) likewise exempts any “firearm for which the U.S. Government has issued a stamp or permit pursuant to the National Firearms Act.” The National Firearms Act, referenced in the latter subsection, provides for permitting such firearms as short-barreled shotguns and rifles, machineguns, and silencers. Each of those weapons is arguably even more deadly than the semi-automatic weapons that the Town of Superior seeks to ban, yet these provisions would permit individuals to possess, sell, or otherwise transfer them.

Let’s see if any of the NAGR critics are willing to grudgingly admit they’re doing good here.
