What does the Biden administration mean for gun rights in 2021? A lot of change, but perhaps not all at once. The president has a great deal of work ahead of him, and despite having Democrats in power in both houses, there’s only so much that can be accomplished within the 4 years. Indeed, on the […]
Most people relocate about eleven times during their adult lifetimes. Most people move for job reasons. Others move to be closer (or further away from) family. For the most part, relocations do not affect gun trusts. Generally, trusts in one state are also valid in other states. However, that’s not always the case. So, a […]
As the coronavirus outbreak continues, discussion is moving from health and safety to political and economic rights. In March 2020, Los Angeles Mayor Eric Garcetti ordered firearms dealers, ammunition dealers, and other providers to close. He issued that order despite a contrary directive from Los Angeles County Sheriff Alex Villanueva. Initially, Villanueva issued a similar […]
Former President Richard Nixon once used the term “silent majority” to describe the millions of Americans who favored law and order, or at least Nixon’s version of law and order. Today, this group might or might not be a majority, but it is definitely no longer silent. In January 2020, several thousand activists gathered near […]
A few years ago, the Second Amendment seemed off-limits. Now, a repeal or modification seems increasingly likely. Alternatively, gun laws in the United States soon could mirror the laws north of the border. It is technically legal to own a gun in Canada. But, there are so many restrictions that almost no one qualifies under […]
Ever since Spanish Conquistadors appeared and essentially subdued a continent with a handful of men and a few terrifying new weapons, personal firearms has been a controversial part of American history. Revolutionary War Minutemen helped shape the Second Amendment, and roughly a hundred and fifty years later, a rogue’s gallery of men helped shape modern […]
There have been seven mass shootings in Florida since 2016. The most notable ones were probably the 2018 Douglas High School shooting in Parkland, the 2017 Fort Lauderdale airport shooting, and the 2016 Pulse Nightclub shooting in Orlando. The most recent one occurred just a few months ago. In January 2019, 21-year-old Zephen Xaver, a […]
In March 2019, the United States Supreme Court twice refused to block President Donald Trump’s bump stock reclassification. This move came in the wake of the 2017 Las Vegas mass shooting. The evildoer responsible allegedly used a bump stock, which basically makes it easier to fire a semi-automatic rifle. The Gun Owners of America and […]
Gun trusts have a number of benefits, regardless of the type of firearm in the trust. But most people use gun trusts for guns which are difficult to obtain and possess under the National Firearms Act. In this situation, a gun trust makes the initial transaction and subsequent possession easier. A gun trust also makes […]
National Firearm Act gun trusts are an excellent way to preserve your Second Amendment rights. For example, gun trust transfers do not require Chief Law Enforcement Officer signatures. The CLEO loophole gives local police chiefs or sheriffs almost absolute power to block firearms transfers for any reason they see fit. Furthermore, gun trusts prevent accidental […]
