This video critically analyzes the Department of Defense's (DOD) acquisition of civilian firearms, arguing it's an illegal maneuver to influence the civilian market and force technological adoption. The speaker, demonstrating high authority on Second Amendment policy, explains how current DOD acquisition policies, dating back to the 1970s and the A109 overhaul, require a defined mission for any firearm procurement. The current strategy, however, allegedly bypasses this by using large government contracts to pressure manufacturers, potentially depleting civilian supply and mandating features like smart gun technology or microstamping without direct legislative requirement for civilian sales.
