The Fight For Canadian Gun Rights Continues

From The Truth About Guns:

However, the fight in Canada for gun rights is not over, and in a recent bold stand for procedural fairness, Canadian lawyer Ian Runkle is taking the fight for firearms owners’ rights to the Supreme Court of Canada, and grassroots support is surging. Runkle’s crowdfunding campaign on GiveSendGo, titled “Procedural Fairness for Firearm Owners,” has raised over CAD $33,662 toward a $40,000 goal to cover mounting legal costs. The case challenges the Canadian government’s controversial “nullification” of thousands of firearms licenses, a move critics argue is a thinly veiled attempt to sidestep legal obligations and advance a broader gun confiscation agenda that has gradually eroded Canadian firearms rights.

250 Years Since Lexington and Concord

From Bearing Arms:

“While the Declaration of Independence didn’t happen for another 15 months, the Revolutionary War actually began at Lexington Commons and the Concord North Bridge in the Spring of 1775, and it can honestly be said Americans have been fighting hard and shedding blood ever since to defend not just their natural right to be free from tyranny, but to protect and perpetuate what was and remains the uniquely American concept of freedom and liberty.

Germany Taking A Page Out Of Its Dark History

From The Truth About Guns:

Members and supporters of the right-leaning Alternative für Deutschland (AfD) party are now facing mass gun license revocations. The reason? The German government has labeled the AfD a “right-wing extremist” group—a political designation that suddenly makes its members “unreliable” under the country’s gun laws. And just like that, firearms must be surrendered or destroyed.

Trump Can Take Advantage Of Fifth Circuit Suppressor Ruling

From Ammoland:

In the case, the US Attorney made the claim that silencers were not arms covered by the text of the Second Amendment. This is what was used by the three-judge panel to claim silencers are not protected arms. The Trump administration could easily reverse the claim, and state silencers are clearly arms protected by the Second Amendment. The US Attorney’s office for the Eastern District of Louisiana has until the 17 of March to send its response to the Fifth Circuit.

ATF Sued By GOA To Lift Gag Order On Surveillance Program

From Ammoland:

On March 12, 2025, lawyers for GOA filed a motion to lift a protective order that has been in place since September 18, 2023. The order was put into place after GOA filed a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request with the ATF in 2021, “seeking records about a secret government surveillance program which unlawfully and unconstitutionally monitors and records the firearm purchases of American citizens who are perfectly eligible to purchase and possess firearms.” The ATF finally relented and handed over the documents, but instead of giving the redacted documents, the Bureau supplied the documents with without redactions. The ATF tried to “claw back” the documents by demanding that all documents be returned and copies be destroyed. GOA refused to give in to the ATF’s demands.

SBR Restrictions Upheld By Seventh Circuit

From The Truth About Guns:

This ruling is particularly relevant in light of the 2022 Supreme Court decision in New York State Rifle & Pistol Association v. Bruen, which established a historical tradition test for evaluating firearm laws. Under Bruen, firearm regulations must be justified by a historical analogue—meaning the government must prove that similar restrictions existed at the time of the Founding. While the Court acknowledged that firearms deemed dangerous and unusual may be regulated, it also reaffirmed that weapons in common use for lawful purposes are constitutionally protected.

Senator Lee Leads Charge To Reverse Ammo Export Restrictions

From The Truth About Guns:

A group of 88 members of the U.S. House of Representatives and U.S. Senate are pushing to have the Biden Administration rule restricting firearm exports by law-abiding American manufacturers reversed, and they want it done now.

“As soon as is practically possible, we respectfully request that you rescind the Department of Commerce Bureau of Industry and Security’s (BIS) recent interim final rule (IFR) ‘Revision of Firearms License Requirements,” the letter stated. “This misguided and destructive IFR is costing the American firearms industry nearly $500 million annually while doing nothing to advance U.S. interests or regional stability. Despite numerous attempts to rein in these actions through letters, legislation, hearings, markups and oversight, the Biden BIS ignored Congress and used the IFR to advance the Biden administration’s anti-firearms agenda.”
