    They will never stop!

    For now at least, it appears that semi-auto handguns are exempted. From the same bill: (4) For purposes of this subsection— (A) the term ‘gas-operated semi-automatic firearm’ does not include— ... (v) a handgun that— ... (VI) is a single or double action semi-automatic handgun that uses...

    They will never stop!

    Don't be fooled by the "gas-operated" moniker. The GOSAFE ACT bans ALL semi-auto rifles with detachable magazines, regardless of its semi-auto mechanism, be it gas operated, recoil operated, or pure blowback. From the proposed bill: (40) The term ‘gas-operated’, with respect to a semi-automatic...

    Arkansas Medical Marijuana Change 8/1/2023

    Michigan passed a similar law and in 2020 the ATF rescinded their approval for Michigan FFLs to accept a CPL as a substitute for a NICS check. If Arkansas had a similar CPL exception to NICS, expect the ATF to withdraw it.

    Shipping .177 pellet gun out of California

    I suggest the site https://airgunlaws.com/ for state by state information. I cannot vouch for its accuracy, but like Handgunlaw.us, it does list the specific law numbers cited so you can verify the accuracy of their information. (But that does nothing for laws they may have missed.) It is a...

    So you think that Permitless Carry is legal in your state?

    This is the law, and you are correct to point this out. However, if people without permits in permitless carry states are going to get arrested over possession of a firearm within 1000' of a School Zone without a valid state-issued permit, then where does that leave people who carry in other...

    Connecticut House bill 6667 passed

The fact that their predictions about fender benders has never come to pass won't stop them from using the same false...

    Michigan's Universal Background Checks - Please Explain

    "Ex post facto"

    Oh, you mean like the Lautenberg Amendment that removed a person's Second Amendment rights years after pleading guilty to a misdemeanor? (Yes, I know it's been litigated and found to not be an ex post facto law.)
