Videos tagged with ATF Rule Changes

This video explains how recent regulatory changes and evolving definitions by the ATF and state governments can inadvertently turn law-abiding gun owners into felons overnight. It emphasizes that firearm legality is not static, often shifting due to reclassifications of features, definitions, or agency positions, rather than direct legislative action. Understanding specific firearm configurations and current legal definitions is crucial for compliance.

Recent policy shifts from the Department of Justice and ATF have led to a significant increase in AR-platform firearm sales. Specifically, the de-categorization of a particular trigger and potential removal of suppressors from NFA regulations have created a sense of renewed freedom and driven demand. Many individuals who previously sold their AR pistols due to confusion over pistol brace regulations are now repurchasing them, contributing to the sales surge.

This video provides an expert analysis of the recent ATF pistol brace rule and the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals' injunction. The speaker, demonstrating deep knowledge of firearms law and ATF regulations, explains the limited scope of the injunction, the new ATF requirements for brace destruction, and the confusion surrounding compliance deadlines. The content emphasizes the legal implications for gun owners and advises proactive engagement with elected officials.

This video discusses leaked ATF documents proposing significant rule changes impacting firearm definitions and the sale of unfinished receivers, often referred to as 'ghost guns.' The proposed rules would require unlicensed manufacturers selling unfinished receivers to obtain a Federal Firearms License (FFL), serialize parts, and conduct background checks. The definition of a 'firearm receiver' is being broadened, potentially classifying more parts as regulated. The speaker expresses concern over the broadness of these proposed changes and their potential impact on the firearms industry and individual gun owners.
