Once More Unto the Breach
Trump has just announced thanks to Gun Owners America that they are going to reconsider the Biden era frame and receiver rule. Is this a shock? Should we have freaked out last week? Well, we’re going to talk about it because as I said last week in another video, I told you so. [Watch]
If so, great, but where I come from, “going to reconsider” doesn’t mean “will,” “may” can also mean “may not,” and we should all be hearing this in an unequivocal announcement from the administration, not parceled out to a select few supportive influencers.
Sorry if my first impression is that this sounds like an electioneering tactic from someone skilled at telling gun owners what they want to hear, but he’s been playing this game on us for years, so everyone will have to forgive me if I suspect this is more of the same — and if he does do it, it will be more out of manipulation than sincere conviction.
Change my mind.

Good First Steps
The Department of Justice and the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives announced today the repeal of the Enhanced Regulatory Enforcement Policy and the review of Final Rule 2021R-08F, related to stabilizing braces, and Final Rule 2022R-17F, related to the definition of “engaging in the business” of firearms dealing. [More]
As for “consultations with stakeholders, including gun rights organizations, industry leaders and legal experts,” why not formalize that?
A viable way to present a coordinated front representing gun owner interests and having the president’s ear is by the White House replacing Joe Biden’s Office of Gun Violence Prevention with an Office for Second Amendment Protection.

“Every single Biden attack on gun owners and manufacturers will be terminated on my very first week back in office, perhaps my first day.”
This is where some angry moron will ask “Would you rather have Harris?”
And So It Begins…?
The entire Department of Justice is starting to file documents in courts basically saying, “Hey we want to put these fights involving the ATF on hold because we’re likely going to be reconsidering them and changing position in favor of the right to keep and be arms.” [Watch]
The federal government asked the Eleventh Circuit to postpone oral arguments in a lawsuit challenging the ATF pistol brace rule, saying that it needs time to review it pursuant to Trump’s Second Amendment executive order…
