How Roberts, Brown, and Jensen are challenging a 90-year-old federal law and why it matters to Jewish self-defense. If you’ve followed Jews Can Shoot for any length of time, you understand something that gets lost in a lot of mainstream gun debates: for Jewish Americans, the right to armed self-defense isn’t abstract. It’s historical. It’s personal. And

Utah Sen. Mike Lee has unveiled a new bill that would allow individuals who can lawfully possess a firearm to carry a handgun in all 50 states, without the need for a state-issued permission slip. Lee’s National Constitutional Carry Act would be a huge change to federal law, which at the moment leaves the right to carry

While passage of President Donald Trump’s One Big Beautiful Bill eliminated the $200 tax stamp on suppressors, short-barreled rifles (SBRs), short-barreled shotguns (SBSs), and other National Firearms Act (NFA) items, many in the firearms community are pushing further. Lawsuits have been filed and federal legislation introduced to completely eliminate the NFA, which is now, technically, a tax

This article breaks down a discussion between Second Amendment attorneys Mark W. Smith and Stephen P. Halbrook on the legal gaps in the post-1986 machine gun ban.

In Benson v. United States, the District of Columbia Court of Appeals—not to be confused with the federal United States Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit—ruled that Washington, D.C.’s ban on magazines holding more than ten rounds is unconstitutional. The District of Columbia Court of Appeals is the highest court in D.C.,

From what I’ve learned, states can delegate some administrative tasks to private companies, such as allowing third-party providers to handle driver’s licenses, but that power applies only where the state has legal authority.

West Virginia has found a brilliant approach to complying with the the NFA and the Hughes Amendment when it comes to the private ownership of modern machine guns. Mark Smith, Four Boxes Diner, discusses… Four Boxes Diner, Mark W. Smith.

Amy Swearer @AmySwearer “Minnesota Dems went completely unhinged yesterday trying to stop me from testifying against their gun control bills. When @mnguncaucus low key bullied them into not being cowards, they gave me two throw-away minutes. I did NOT throw them away.”

“I took to heart the Mayor’s comment on self-reflection as a gun owner. After serious private consideration, I have reached the conclusion that Socialist Democrats cannot provide adequate leadership to even a sanitation department of a city without their overwhelming need to control what people do.
