Frequently Asked Questions

What was Operation Chokepoint and how did it affect the gun industry?

Operation Chokepoint was an Obama-era initiative where federal regulators, like the FDIC and OCC, used 'reputational risk' to pressure banks into severing ties with disfavored industries, including firearms manufacturers and sellers. This tactic aimed to de-bank the gun industry, acting as a backdoor gun control measure.

What regulatory change has occurred regarding 'reputational risk' and the gun industry?

The FDIC and OCC have announced the removal of 'reputational risk' as a regulatory standard. This means financial institutions can no longer be pressured by regulators to drop clients based on the perceived public opinion of those clients, effectively ending the financial attacks on the gun industry.

Who has been advocating against these financial attacks on the gun industry?

Gun rights organizations, such as GOA (Gun Owners of America), have made eliminating these financial attacks a high priority. They celebrate the recent regulatory changes as a significant victory for Second Amendment-related companies.

How did 'reputational risk' function as a tool against the gun industry?

Regulators weaponized 'reputational risk' by threatening banks with supervisory action if they continued to do business with gun companies. This created a climate of fear, making banks unwilling to offer services, thus isolating and potentially bankrupting legal firearm businesses.
