The DOJ has admitted that the federal ban on mailing handguns (18 USC 1715) is unconstitutional, citing Supreme Court precedents like Bruen and Heller. However, instead of allowing a definitive ruling, the DOJ is seeking a case dismissal, which critics argue is a tactic to maintain leverage over gun owners without a binding legal precedent. The speaker emphasizes that rights should not be subject to executive discretion and announces an upcoming educational series on constitutional principles.

This video reports a significant development where the DOJ's Office of Legal Counsel has issued an opinion deeming the federal ban on mailing handguns (18 USC 1715) unconstitutional. The opinion, based on Supreme Court precedents like Heller and Bruen, concludes that the 1927 law lacks historical precedent and fails the 'text and history' test. This admission is framed as a major victory for Second Amendment rights, potentially impacting future enforcement and legal challenges.
