Frequently Asked Questions

What is Gun Owners of America's primary concern regarding the ATF's recent actions?

Gun Owners of America's main concern is the ATF's attempt to redefine 'in the business of dealing firearms' to cover most gun sales, which would create a paper trail for every transaction and potentially facilitate future confiscation of firearms.

How is GOA fighting against the ATF's 'Zero Tolerance' policy?

GOA is challenging the ATF's 'Zero Tolerance' policy, which allows for the permanent revocation of a gun store's license for minor errors. They view this as a tactic to restrict citizens' access to their Second Amendment rights and are pursuing legal action, such as in the Morous v. ATF2 case.

What legislative battles is GOA prioritizing this year?

GOA's top priorities include stopping ATF registration checks, preventing the permanent reauthorization of the Undetectable Firearms Act, and repealing the Biden pistol brace ban. They are also monitoring Congress for new assault weapons bans and red flag laws.
