Arkansas Attorney General announced May 1, 2024, that the state is joining 20 other states in lawsuit against new ATF Rule on gun sales needing license as an illegal rule. Note the annoying (but common) practice of the article referring repeatedly to the "gun show loophole" as if it were a...

Anyone have experience with inert training guns in checked luggage on airlines? I am considering doing so in a few months, and wonder it the x-ray check in the back has caused a problem. Maybe leave a big note visible when the bag is opened declaring the plastic guns and inert models, not...

Reading the KARK News article that links to the warrant pdf gives a pretty clear picture that ATF had legitimate probable cause for the warrant based on the appearance of Malinowski possibly engaging in unlicensed gun dealer sales over several years. As noted above, the 'no advance notice' box...
