This video by Ted from Line 45 details significant firearm law changes effective in 2026. It highlights the elimination of the NFA tax stamp for certain items, new storage and reporting mandates in Illinois, revised purchase limits in California, and expanded prohibitions for certain misdemeanors. The content emphasizes how old habits can lead to legal trouble under these new regulations, particularly concerning storage, travel, and compliance.

Michigan's new safe storage law, Engrossed Senate Bill 79 (Public Safety Act 17), primarily applies when a firearm is stored unattended on premises where a minor is known or likely to be present. Compliance requires either storing the firearm in a locked box/container or keeping it unloaded and secured with a locking device. For motor vehicles, both a locked container and locking the vehicle are required. Criminal liability under this law is contingent on a minor accessing the firearm and then possessing or exhibiting it in a public or threatening manner, not merely on improper storage alone.

This video breaks down three proposed gun control bills: HR 125 (Gun Safety Not Sorry Act), HR 130 (Kimberlé Von Firearms Safe Storage Act), and HR 121 (Gun Violence Reduction Resources Act). HR 125 aims to require background checks and a seven-day waiting period for firearms, armor-piercing ammunition, large capacity magazines, and silencers. HR 130 mandates specific safe storage practices for firearms and ammunition, with penalties for non-compliance, effectively making firearms inoperable for self-defense. HR 121 proposes hiring 200 new ATF agents to enforce these and other gun control measures. The speaker argues these bills represent significant infringements on Second Amendment rights.

This video discusses a new gun storage law passed in Dublin, California, which requires firearms to be stored in a locked container or disabled with a trigger lock when not in the owner's immediate possession. The speaker argues this law infringes on Second Amendment rights and is similar to laws previously struck down by the Supreme Court, citing DC v. Heller. The presenter expresses concern about the law's enforceability and its potential to hinder lawful self-defense.

Matthew Camaro of Chuck Michel & Associates discusses flaws in San Jose's proposed firearm storage ordinance. The ordinance's definition of 'locked container' incorrectly references the California DOJ's Firearm Safety Devices Roster, which does not include common gun safes. This could render many legally owned safes non-compliant, creating a 'trap for law-abiding gun owners.' The ordinance may also conflict with California's existing negligent storage laws and state preemption.
