NJ Attorney General Wants Glock Owner Info

Published on May 24, 2026
Duration: 9:19

The New Jersey Attorney General's office is demanding FFL records of Glock sales from the past decade as part of a public nuisance lawsuit against Glock. This action has raised concerns about doxxing gun owners, as the AG's office already possesses similar data through the state's pistol permitting system. Despite claims of not seeking individual purchaser information, the subpoenas appear to request detailed sales records, which, if made public through discovery, could expose personal information. Gun rights groups and FFLs are pushing back against the broad request, highlighting the potential for misuse and the burden of compliance.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why is the New Jersey Attorney General demanding Glock owner information?

The New Jersey Attorney General is demanding FFL records of Glock sales as part of a public nuisance lawsuit against Glock. This action is intended to gather data for the discovery process in the lawsuit, though concerns exist that this data could be used to identify and potentially expose Glock owners.

Does the New Jersey AG already have access to Glock owner information?

Yes, New Jersey has a pistol permitting system that functions similarly to a registry. This system allows the Attorney General's office to access information on handgun owners, including Glock owners, without needing to subpoena FFLs.

What are the concerns regarding the FFL subpoenas for Glock sales data?

The primary concern is that the requested sales data, if made public through the lawsuit's discovery process, could lead to the doxxing of gun owners. This would expose their personally identifiable information, raising significant privacy and safety issues.

What is the AG's office's stated reason for the subpoenas?

The AG's office claims the subpoenas are not seeking information about individual purchasers or their personal identifying information. However, this statement has been contradicted by the actual subpoena documents and the interpretations of FFLs and their legal counsel.
