Frequently Asked Questions

Why were ATF NFA examiners declared essential?

ATF NFA examiners were declared 'essential' due to significant public pressure. This designation allowed them to return to work, enabling the processing of applications for NFA-regulated items like silencers and other devices that had been halted.

What legal actions is Pam Bondi's DOJ taking regarding gun control?

Pam Bondi's Department of Justice is reportedly attempting to limit relief in cases where gun control laws have been challenged. This includes efforts to keep the federal ban on handgun sales to individuals under 21 in place and limiting relief to specific groups after losing cases.

What was the outcome of the Florida ruling on concealed carry for those under 21?

A Florida judge ruled that the state law banning adults under 21 from carrying concealed weapons is unconstitutional. While this ruling is not binding in other states, it can be used as persuasive legal precedent in arguments against similar laws.

What concerns are raised about law enforcement and gun owners in Chicago?

An investigation by CBS News Chicago suggests that some police officers routinely arrest Black gun owners during minor traffic stops, even when they possess all required documentation. This raises concerns about discriminatory enforcement and the purpose of gun control.
