More on Possible Confiscation in the “Constitution” State
From Townhall.com:
Until now, gun control laws hadn’t mandated the confiscation of weapons; generally, banned guns were grandfathered in under previous laws so their current owners could continue to legally own them. The Connecticut law changes all that. Passed last year in response to the Sandy Hook shooting, SB 1160 bans so-called “assault weapons†– certain rifles, more recently known as AR-15s, that have been singled out based on purely cosmetic criteria – and magazines that hold more than 10 rounds of ammunition.

Judge Throws Out SAFE Act Violation on 4th Amendment Grounds
From Buffalo News:
“In observing the magazine, I did notice there were at least 10 rounds in the magazine,†Barrancotta testified. He then emptied the magazine.
“I did count rounds just to confirm our reasonable suspicion that there were more than 10,†Piedmont said.
Tresmond said, “Once the magazine is removed from the firearm, the firearm cannot fire. At that point in time, the search of the firearm should have ceased. But the officers went further. … It was a search without a warrant.â€
Ninth Circuit Rules In Favor Of Gun Rights Again
From Calguns Foundation:
BELLEVUE, WA, and ROSEVILLE, CA – The Second Amendment Foundation and The Calguns Foundation earned a significant victory today when the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals reversed and remanded the case of Richards v. Prieto, challenging the handgun carry license issuing policy of Yolo County, California, Sheriff Ed Prieto.
“Today’s ruling reinforces the Second Amendment’s application to state and local governments, and will help clear the way for more California citizens to exercise their right to bear arms,†said SAF founder and Executive Vice President Alan M. Gottlieb. “California officials have been put on notice that they can no longer treat the Second Amendment as a heavily-regulated government privilege.†Read the rest of this entry »

Cop Attempts to Sell Class 3 Weapon, Not Charged
From WSBRadio.com:
When Doraville received the tip they contacted the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms.
“Because the weapon had not been delivered,” Callaway says, “it didn’t meet their threshold for a crime.”
Mann was dismissed from the Doraville police department. He can appeal his firing.
Would a civilian like you or me not be charged if we tried to sell a Class 3 weapon without the proper paperwork? It is my opinion that there should be no such thing as a Class 3 weapon in the first place.
U.S. Senator Proposes Gun Law With Unproven Technology
Posted by Brian in Law, News, Threat Watch on 6/Mar/2014 08:05
From Boston.com:
The Gun Owners Action League of Massachusetts said the technology championed by Markey is often flawed and smart guns ‘‘only work correctly in the movies.’’
‘‘No technology should stand between a lawful gun owner using his/her firearm,’’ the group said in a written statement. ‘‘We also find it more than disingenuous that a senator with very little knowledge of firearms, who has worked to stifle the Second Amendment, would offer mandated technology that gun owners have not asked for, nor supported.’’
