This video details 'Jamie's Law,' a proposed bill that would expand federal background checks to include ammunition purchases. The law, if passed, would require all ammunition transfers, including private sales and online purchases, to go through a federally licensed dealer (FFL). This is presented as a significant expansion of federal control over firearms rights, potentially creating a de facto registry and impacting the ability to acquire ammunition, which is essential for exercising the right to bear arms.
This video from Guns & Gadgets discusses a significant shift in the ATF's interpretation of 'unlawful user' or 'addicted to' a controlled substance, a key factor in federal gun bans under 18 USC 922(g)(3). The ATF is moving away from automatic denials based on single past incidents towards requiring evidence of a current, ongoing pattern of drug use without a lawful prescription. This change, driven by litigation and constitutional concerns, aims to reduce wrongful denials of firearm purchases.
