As of the video, the Short Act is back in the House with amendments from the Senate. The current language focuses on changing the $200 tax stamp for suppressors to $0, though registration requirements remain. The bill is expected to be voted on soon.

How can ACE virtual shooting improve firearm skills?

ACE virtual shooting enhances target acquisition and focus, serving as an advanced dry-fire tool. While it lacks recoil simulation, it helps build fundamental skills like being target-focused, which can translate to live-fire performance.

What are the key differences between Staccato and Atlas pistols?

Staccato pistols are generally viewed as duty guns with race gun characteristics, while Atlas pistols are more akin to dedicated race guns with tactical attributes. The Staccato 4.5 is noted for its balance between duty and competition performance.

What are the common issues with MP5-style firearms like the Zenith ZF5?

Many MP5-style firearms, including the Zenith ZF5, can experience issues with flat-nosed 9mm ammunition. While Zenith can tune feed ramps to accommodate this, it's a known limitation for some platforms.
