Re: DOJ Announces Rule Ending Private Firearm Sales At Gun Shows
Here is a National Shooting Sports Foundation (NSSF) column from when the rule change was first proposed last September. They point to a few problem areas but these two points might provide legal challenge material. 1.) Prosecuting individuals for violating the new rule would involve proving the int...

Re: DOJ Announces Rule Ending Private Firearm Sales At Gun Shows
The big gimme was the creation of licensed dealers in the first place. The creation of FFLs also created the group of "people who are not FFLs" along with the fuzzy area in between. I could see this being challenged, like the brace rule was challenged, on the grounds that the ATF does not ...

Re: Military receives new rifles
I thought one reason for adopting the 5.56 round was because more of the smaller rounds could be carried per person. 6.8x51 doesn't seem significantly smaller than 7.62x51. They talk about a "hybrid metallic casing" that will save weight. Weight is part of it but bulk is the other factor. ...

Re: Military receives new rifles
Hope it works for them. If it does and the adoption of the new round spreads domestic production of 5.56 for govt consumption will fall which could have downstream impacts on price and availability. Which could go either way - good if the govt stops soaking up all 5.56 production. Bad if manufacture...

Re: BLM plan to close 99% of Sonoran Desert NM to shooting - 2024 edition
What is a "protest" ? There seem to be three key points about a protest. 1. A protest goes to the BLM Director instead of to the state director. 2. Any person who participated in the planning process and has an interest which is or may be adversely affected by the approval or amendment of...

fwiw: The BLM planning process: The planning process for the RMPA/EA consists of the following steps: • Publish notice of intent (NOI), initiate scoping • Conduct scoping • Formulate alternatives • Analyze effects of alternatives • Prepare a draft RMPA/EA and finding of no significant impact (FONSI)...

Re: BLM plan to close 99% of Sonoran Desert NM to shooting - 2024 edition
Individual protest comments are great but more significant would be inquiries from Arizona members of congress. It is an election year so now is the time when the individual has the most leverage. Although most of the monument is in Arizona's CD7 (Raul Grijalva's,) CD9 (Paul Gosar) is right next to ...

BLM plan to close 99% of Sonoran Desert NM to shooting - 2024 edition
Last year the BLM issued a draft proposal to restrict recreational shooting in the Sonoran Desert National Monument. They've now come out with their final / non-draft proposal. Not surprisingly, of the 4 listed alternatives they will implement alternative C which closes 99% of the monument to shooti...

Re: Reduce Recoil on Long Rifle
Might try something like one of these shoulder pads. This site has a good selection. You can test whether one would help by draping a folded hand towel over your shoulder. If that reduces the shoulder problems then one of these better attached things should too. Or a coat with a built-in pad. https:...
