Hornady Reloading Kit For Beginners
From Ammoland:
The simple, effective engineering in this single-stage press gives reloaders complete control, dependably enabling the precision and consistency demanded. The uniquely angled, solid cast frame is designed to assure perfect die and shell holder alignment and allow reloaders to see and access the cartridge throughout the process. The frame is guaranteed never to break or fail.
Supreme Court To Take More Gun Cases
From The Truth About Guns:
Among the first issues to be heard is a challenge to the Biden administration’s regulation of “ghost guns” — firearms that can be assembled from parts sold online and are often untraceable due to the absence of serial numbers. On October 8, the court will hear Garland v. VanDerStok, a case that focuses on whether partially assembled firearms sold in kits should be treated as guns under federal law.
Feds Still Attacking 3D Printed Gun Parts
From Ammoland:
Earlier this month, the government held an event hosted by ATF Director Steve Dettelbach and U.S. Deputy Attorney General Lisa Monaco. The government invited federal law enforcement, members of the 3D-printing industry, and academia to the conference in Washington, DC. The goal was to pressure the industry to stem the tide of 3D-printed gun parts.
Polymer80 Lawfared Into Bankruptcy
From Husky Armory:
The Nevada-based company, known for its “ghost gun” kits that allowed law-abiding citizens to build their own firearms, cited overwhelming legal costs as the primary reason for its closure. For many Second Amendment advocates, this marks a troubling development in the ongoing battle for gun rights in America.
Supreme Court To Hear DIY Gun Case
From The Truth About Guns:
The case, VanDerStok v. Garland, challenges the Department of Justice’s 2022 Final Rule that redefined important legal terms dealing with guns, including “firearm,” “receiver” and “frame,” making the longstanding American tradition of building personal firearms pretty much a thing of the past. Back in April, the court voted 4-3 to consider the challenge.
Texas’s Suppressor Challenge To Be Heard By Fifth Circuit
From Ammoland:
The lawsuit by the State of Texas, challenging the federal requirement to pay taxes and register homemade silencers, is moving forward in the Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit. Oral arguments are scheduled for April 29, 2024. The case is now known as Paxton v Dettelbach.
Bill Attacks First and Second Amendment By Calling For CAD File Ban
From Ammoland:
The bill reads: “It shall be unlawful for any person to intentionally distribute, over the internet or by means of the World Wide Web, digital instructions in the form of Computer Aided Design files or other code that can automatically program a 3-dimensional printer or similar device to produce a firearm or complete a firearm from an unfinished frame or receiver.”
ATF 80% Rule Enjoined By Fifth Circuit
From Ammoland:
The Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals upheld most of the preliminary injunction awarded to Defense Distributed and Blackhawk Manufacturing (d.b.a 80% Arms) in VanDerStok v. Garland.
NDAA Sneaks In More Gun Prohibitions
From The Federalist:
Section 2(f) of the Undetectable Firearms Act of 1988 (18 U.S.C. 922 note; Public Law 100–649) is amended— (1) by striking ‘‘EFFECTIVE DATE AND SUNSET PROVISION’’ and all that follows through ‘‘This Act and the amendments’’ and inserting the following: ‘‘EFFECTIVE DATE.—This Act and the amendments’’; and (2) by striking paragraph (2).
The provision looks harmless enough at first glance. However, to fully understand how this paragraph further infringes the Second Amendment, one must understand what the 1988 Undetectable Firearms Act says, and why striking the effective date puts our rights in jeopardy.
Pieces of Metal and Plastic Cannot Be Deemed Guns
From Reason:
A couple of years ago, an “80 percent” receiver I purchased refused to accept parts, let alone chamber and fire cartridges, until my son and I drilled and milled it to completion; that’s because unfinished firearms are not firearms. For a long time, the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives (ATF) agreed. But, pressured by the Biden administration, the ATF tried to extend firearms regulations to a lot of things that aren’t guns but could, with work, become one. Now a federal judge is injecting some sense, ruling in a lawsuit that bureaucrats can’t just decide that inert objects are guns.
“Ghost Gun” Laws Don’t Stop Criminals
From Bearing Arms:
The Biden Administration issued guidance in 2022 to make these unfinished parts subjected to the same regulation as completed firearms.
A new rule in April 2022 required gun manufacturers to complete background checks and add serial numbers to parts.
Despite, the crackdown, the ABC11 I-Team purchased parts for a popular name-brand handgun online after the rule went into effect and received parts without serial numbers and the site did not conduct a background check.
Court Upholds DIY Firearms
From Ammoland:
The case, Vanderstok v. Garland, was brought by the Firearms Policy Coalition (FPC) and challenged the ATF’s decision to reclassify unfinished frames and receivers as firearms. Biden and other anti-gun zealots have railed against Americans building their own guns in the privacy of their own homes. The anti-gun side of the debate has propagandized these items as tools of criminals and has labeled the items as “ghost guns.”
