This video from Guns & Gadgets details a strategic legal challenge to the 1986 federal machine gun ban, spearheaded by Gun Owners of America (GOA) in West Virginia. The West Virginia Senate Bill 1071 (SB 1071) aims to leverage an existing federal exemption (18 USC 922(o) Part 2) that allows transfers to or by state agencies. This approach avoids direct repeal and instead forces a legal confrontation over the interpretation and constitutionality of the ban, potentially paving the way for other states to follow suit.

This video, featuring William Kirk of Washington Gun Law, details how sheriffs in Arkansas are pushing back against federal gun control measures, particularly the ATF's pistol brace rule.

The Arkansas Sheriff's Association has officially stated their non-support for enforcing such rules, prioritizing focus on violent offenders.

William Kirk from Washington Gun Law clarifies that the ATF cannot demand inspection of non-NFA firearms without a warrant. While NFA ownership doesn't waive Fourth Amendment rights, FFLs are subject to annual inspections, a rule not applicable to private individuals. If ATF agents arrive without a warrant, consent is typically required, and politely declining is advised.
