They could be trying to ensure dealers or buyers comply with local laws? That if you live in a city with a ban, you can't bring the gun into that city. Doesn't mean you can't possess it outside the city.

Federal law states that only the OWNER can possess the key or combination to the gun container. Never use TSA locks. That's what I thought. It's worked for me about a hundred times. I've only had one TSA employee stop me. It was in Atlanta, and the guy made me buy TSA locks. I've always flown with ...

Is anyone still using R12? I think I still have some lying around, but didn't know anyone who was still using it. I thought everything with R12 had already been retrofitted by now.

I thought Trump had gone nuts when he went all "take the guns and due process later", after Parkland. And his ATF changed the definition of machine gun from firing one bullet with one trigger pull to anything that helps you shoot fast. I have no idea how he has any traction with gun owners...

He's a wrecking ball in the Republican party.

It's a lot of voters.

My only concern about constitutional carry is that it might reduce the number of concealed weapons permits. 2 million permits is a lot of voters, and it's pretty hard for our state legislators and leaders to ignore that. That said, I still support constitutional carry. Open carry? There are a few pe...

Even in criminal court, they don't just hand out public defenders. A single person would have to make less than $25760/year to qualify. At 40 hours a week, that's less than $12.39 an hour. Considering the average 1 br apartment is $21K/year in Florida, that's a homeless guy. And the homeless guy wou...

It's almost impossible for the cop to face a civil lawsuit. The department will pay up, and the taxpayers will foot the bill. In practice, qualified immunity is almost absolute immunity. Besides, who has the money to actually pay out? An unemployable former cop getting out of prison? Or a local gove...
