Videos tagged with Unlicensed Dealers

A US District Court judge vacated the ATF's pistol brace ban in the case of Mock v. Garland, a significant victory for the Firearms Policy Coalition (FPC). The video also discusses new Biden administration regulations expanding background checks for firearm sales, aiming to close the 'gun show loophole' and impact unlicensed dealers. Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton has filed a lawsuit challenging these new regulations as an overreach and infringement on Second Amendment rights.

This video details a new Justice Department rule, effective immediately, that clarifies who must obtain a Federal Firearms License (FFL) and conduct background checks for gun sales. The regulation targets unlicensed dealers who sell firearms predominantly for profit, aiming to close loopholes at gun shows and online. It emphasizes that individuals selling guns primarily to earn a profit, regardless of location, must be licensed and perform background checks, with specific indicators like profit/loss records and business insurance pointing to commercial intent. The rule is a response to the Bipartisan Safer Communities Act and aims to reduce gun violence by keeping firearms out of the hands of prohibited individuals.

This video analyzes a new ATF report on illicitly trafficked firearms, highlighting significant issues with the data and its presentation. The speaker argues the report is politically motivated, aiming to bolster the Biden administration's crime-fighting narrative. Key criticisms include the redefinition of 'dealer' under the Safer Communities Act, the disproportionately low percentage of trafficked guns used in actual shootings, and the fact that a large portion of trafficked firearms end up with felons who are already prohibited from owning them.
