Congress Could Put An End To Credit Card Gun Codes
From Bearing Arms:
However, with the new 119th Congress, the winds have shifted considerably. Rep. Riley Moore (R-West Virginia) introduced H.R. 1181, the Protecting Privacy in Purchases Act, in the House of Representatives in February. That bill already has 118 co-sponsors. In the Upper Chamber across the Capitol, Sen. Bill Hagerty (R-Tennessee) once again reintroduced his bill (S. 1715) and it already has 16 Senate cosponsors.
With President Donald Trump, who has vowed to protect Second Amendment rights, in the White House, the prospects have never been better for federal protections against this anti-privacy, anti-Second Amendment folly pushed by gun control activists and “woke” supporters in banking board rooms.
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.
Supreme Court Upholds Rule That Frames or Receivers Can Be Classed As Firearms
From Bearing Arms:
In a 7-2 decision, the U.S. Supreme Court on Wednesday upheld an ATF rule promulgated under the Biden administration that treats unfinished frames and receivers and DIY-gunmaking kids as fully functional firearms subject to federal law, overturning the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals and holding that the regulation is not “facially inconsistent with the Gun Control Act.”
GOA Wants DOGE To Look Into Violations Of Dickey Amendment By NIH
From Bearing Arms:
But the Gun Owners of America (GOA) wants the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) to investigate the federal agency, claiming severan NIH grants are in direct violation of the Dickey Amendment, which prohibits the use of federal funds to advocate or promote gun control.
LA Sheriff’s Department Abused Background Check System
From Ammoland:
In a troubling revelation, the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department (LACSD) has been found extensively misusing sensitive criminal justice databases to conduct unauthorized background checks when approving concealed carry firearm permit applications. This major breach comprised the bulk of a record 7,275 violations across California in 2023, highlighting a systemic issue within state law enforcement agencies.
NJ Hollow Point Ban Challenged
From Bearing Arms:
Gun Owners of America (GOA), Gun Owners Foundation (GOF), and the Coalition of New Jersey Firearm Owners, alongside plaintiff Heidi Bergmann-Schoch, have filed a lawsuit challenging New Jersey’s unconstitutional ban on possessing hollow point ammunition for self-defense outside the home. The lawsuit, filed in the U.S. District Court for the District of New Jersey, argues that the state’s restrictions violate the Second and Fourteenth Amendments by preventing law-abiding citizens from possessing and carrying the most effective forms of self-defense ammunition.
AG Bondi Worries Gun Rights Group
From Bearing Arms:
Gun Owners of America (GOA) is sounding the alarm following the Senate confirmation of Pam Bondi as Attorney General, vowing to hold her accountable in defending Americans’ Second Amendment rights.
While Bondi has supported some pro-gun measures, her tenure as Florida Attorney General also raises serious red flags. She endorsed the controversial Parkland gun control laws, which included “red flag” confiscation orders, a ban on firearm ownership for 18-20-year-olds, and a bump stock ban. Bondi also defended Florida’s ban on open carry and defended the 18-20 year old gun ban in court, which infringes on the rights of law-abiding gun owners. This is in stark contrast to other Florida state Attorneys General like Ashley Moody, who recently declined to defend Florida’s unconstitutional open carry ban after GOA filed a lawsuit.
The Case For National Concealed Carry Reciprocity
From The Federalist:
Congress faces a crucial opportunity to reaffirm a cornerstone of our constitutional freedoms: the right to bear arms. National concealed-carry reciprocity legislation would ensure that state borders do not restrict or invalidate this fundamental right, guaranteed by the Second Amendment.
At its heart, this is about acknowledging that constitutional rights are universal, not dependent on geography. The Constitution does not stop at state lines.
Will Trump Put An End To The ATF?
From Ammoland:
Years ago, there were ATF agents who supported guns and our gun rights – older agents who didn’t let their administrators push them into breaking the law. But after four years of Biden and his chosen joke of an ATF director, these agents are mostly gone. They were replaced by younger antigun bureaucrats.
Court Affirms: Adults 18-20 Have Second Amendment Rights Too
From Bearing Arms:
For the second time, the Third Circuit Court of Appeals has declared that the state of Pennsylvania violated the Second Amendment rights of young adults by preventing them from lawfully bearing arms in self-defense.
On Monday, the appellate court issued its second opinion in Lara v. Commissioner Pennsylvania State Police, but the new opinion jibes with what the court had to say previously. After that initial ruling, the state appealed to the U.S. Supreme Court. The justices remanded the case back to the Third Circuit to reconsider in light of Rahimi decision, but after conducting another analysis a three-judge panel on the Third Circuit held that the Rahimi case had no impact on their original decision, and ordered the district court to grant the injunction requested by the plaintiffs.
Texas Intros New Gun Bill After State Fair Debacle
From The Truth About Guns:
According to the text of HB 1715, any government entities, courts or contractors who use such properties “may not in any manner prohibit a license holder who is carrying a handgun under the authority of Subchapter H, Chapter 411, Government Code, from entering or remaining on the property or a portion of the property, including through the provision of notice by a communication described by Section 30.06 or 30.07, Penal Code, unless license holders are otherwise prohibited from carrying handguns on the property or that portion of the property under Section 46.03, Penal Code, or other law.”
Is Taxing Rights Constitutional?
From The Truth About Guns:
Colorado has joined California in taxing Americans’ Second Amendment rights with its new voter-approved gun initiative. While proposals for similar taxes have ignorantly claimed they mean to reduce gun violence, this new Centennial State measure is unique in that it confesses upfront to being a revenue-generating scheme, using victim services as an “ends justify the means” argument.
Remain Vigilant
From The Truth About Guns:
These tragedies are far from the hopeful beginnings we envisioned for the new year. Notably, the perpetrators in New Orleans and Las Vegas did not rely on firearms to inflict harm; instead, they utilized vehicles and explosives to execute their attacks. This just goes to show that the absence of firearms does not equate to the absence of danger.
For responsible gun owners and self-defense adherents, these incidents actually reinforce the need to remain vigilant and prepared. While a firearm may not prevent a vehicle attack or an explosion, it can serve as a critical tool in stopping a malicious actor intent on causing harm. The swift response by armed police in New Orleans, who neutralized the attacker before he could inflict further casualties, proves that much.
