Firearms Legislation and Community Engagement Update – May 2025This month brings several key developments related to firearm policy, safety education, and community engagement:Honoring Law Enforcement During National Police WeekMay marks the 63rd observance of National Police Week, with nationwide events paying tribute to fallen officers and recognizing the service of active-duty law enforcement. The Annual National Peace Officers’ Memorial Service was held on May 15, and a 5K race in Arlington, Virginia brought together law enforcement personnel, their families, and supporters to promote public safety and community unity.Proposed Elimination of Suppressor TaxA new proposal from the U.S. House Ways and Means Committee seeks to remove the $200 federal tax on suppressor purchases. While this change would reduce financial barriers, all other requirements—such as background checks, fingerprinting, and submission of ATF Form 4—would remain in place. The proposal is part of a broader effort to reclassify suppressors and streamline legal access.Bipartisan Support at the Congressional Clays CompetitionThe annual Congressional Clays Competition saw participation from lawmakers across the political spectrum. The event served as an opportunity to build relationships, promote outdoor recreation, and encourage collaborative efforts on conservation and sporting policy.Increase in Firearm Ownership Among WomenRecent data shows a continued rise in firearm ownership among women, growing from 15% in 2007 to 20% between 2019 and 2024. Educational programs offering training in firearm safety and handling have helped support this trend, reflecting a broader interest in personal protection and responsible ownership.Focus on Secure Storage and Community ProgramsOngoing initiatives continue to emphasize safe firearm storage and educational outreach, especially in partnership with law enforcement and local communities. These efforts aim to reduce accidents, support youth education, and encourage responsible ownership practices.As the landscape continues to evolve, efforts remain focused on protecting rights, improving public safety, and fostering cooperation among lawmakers, communities, and firearm owners.

In a disappointing but not entirely unexpected move, the U.S. Supreme Court has declined to hear two significant Second Amendment cases challenging bans on AR-15 rifles and standard-capacity magazines. These denials mean that lower court rulings upholding restrictive firearm laws in Maryland and Rhode Island will stand—for now.

ATF 'Zero-Tolerance' Policy ReversalThe Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) reported a significant increase in federal firearms license (FFL) revocations in 2024, totaling 195—a nearly 25% rise from 2023. This uptick was attributed to the Biden administration's "zero-tolerance" policy, which penalized minor clerical errors. The National Shooting Sports Foundation (NSSF) welcomed the Trump administration's decision to rescind this policy, viewing it as a positive shift for lawful firearm retailers.NSSFContinued Firearm Purchases Amid Economic ChallengesDespite economic headwinds, firearm sales remain robust. A Rasmussen poll indicated that 19% of American adults, or someone in their household, purchased a firearm in the past year, with 64% citing self-defense as the primary reason. This trend persists even as some states implement laws that NSSF views as obstacles to Second Amendment rights.NSSF+10NSSF+10NSSF+10DOJ Emphasizes Second Amendment ProtectionsHarmeet Dhillon, Assistant Attorney General for Civil Rights, announced that the Department of Justice's Civil Rights Division is prioritizing the protection of Second Amendment rights. The division plans to challenge state laws that it believes infringe upon these rights, especially those that contradict recent Supreme Court rulings.West Virginia Enacts Pro-Firearm LegislationWest Virginia Governor Patrick Morrisey signed three bills into law aimed at protecting the firearm industry and Second Amendment rights:NSSF+13NSSF+13NSSF+13 House Bill 2067: The West Virginia Firearms Liability Clarification Act House Bill 3342: The Firearms Industry Nondiscrimination Act Senate Bill 270: Prohibits the suspension of gun rights during declared emergenciesThese laws received bipartisan support and were praised by the NSSF for safeguarding the industry against legal overreach.NSSFMeeting with Interior Secretary on Outdoor AccessNSSF's Larry Keane met with U.S. Department of the Interior Secretary Doug Burgum to discuss the implementation of the Range Access Act, part of the EXPLORE Act. The Act mandates the Bureau of Land Management and U.S. Forest Service to open public recreational shooting ranges in underserved areas. Discussions also covered increasing public land access and expanding recreational shooting opportunities.DOJ Supports Concealed Carry Rights in Supreme Court CaseThe Department of Justice filed an amicus brief in the Supreme Court case Wolford v. Lopez, challenging Hawaii's restrictions on concealed carry license holders carrying firearms on private property open to the public. The DOJ argues that such restrictions violate Second Amendment rights, signaling the administration's commitment to defending lawful firearm ownership.NSSF+11NSSF+11

National Second Amendment News (Week of April 4–11, 2025)1. Colorado Governor Signs Sweeping Semi-Automatic Ban SB25-003, signed by Governor Jared Polis, prohibits the sale and transfer of most semi-automatic rifles and shotguns with detachable magazines. Takes effect January 2026. It mandates background checks, training requirements, and introduces an age limit. The NSSF and other 2A advocates strongly oppose the law, anticipating constitutional challenges.2. ATF "Zero-Tolerance" Policy Walked Back The ATF’s controversial “zero-tolerance” revocation policy for Federal Firearms Licensees (FFLs) has reportedly been modified, following intense pressure from industry and Congress. The original policy led to FFL revocations for paperwork errors. New guidance appears to provide more flexibility and due process for gun dealers. This is seen as a significant victory for gun retailers and rights advocates.3. House Judiciary Advances Firearm Preemption Protection Act The House Judiciary Committee advanced the Firearm Industry Nondiscrimination (FIND) Act and Protecting the Right to Keep and Bear Arms Act. These aim to protect lawful firearms businesses from being cut off by financial services and to reinforce Second Amendment protections across federal jurisdiction.4. Supreme Court Declines Review of New York Concealed Carry Law The Court declined to hear a challenge to New York's “Concealed Carry Improvement Act,” which adds strict licensing requirements and bans carry in most public areas. This leaves lower court decisions in place and continues to restrict carry rights in New York. Gun rights groups expressed frustration and concern over inconsistent application of Bruen precedent.5. Ninth Circuit Upholds California’s Large-Capacity Magazine Ban In a major 2A decision, the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals upheld California’s ban on magazines over 10 rounds in Duncan v. Bonta. This ruling is expected to be appealed again, potentially reaching the Supreme Court. Gun rights advocates argue it contradicts the Supreme Court's standard set in Bruen.State-Level Second Amendment DevelopmentsArizona Pro-gun legislation is moving forward in the Arizona legislature, including: Strengthening state preemption laws, limiting cities and counties from enacting their own gun restrictions. Bills to limit enforcement of federal gun control laws seen as unconstitutional. Some proposals include repealing restrictions on certain NFA-regulated items (e.g., suppressors and short-barreled rifles).California After the Duncan decision, California officials are pushing for further restrictions, including: More waiting period expansions. New proposed taxes on gun and ammo sales.Washington New legislation is being considered to restrict open carry in more public spaces, building on last year's laws against open carry at demonstrations and state capitols.Illinois Legal challenges continue against the “assault weapon” and magazine bans passed in 2023. Multiple counties and sheriffs are refusing to enforce the law. State Supreme Court arguments are expected in late spring.Oregon Measure 114, which includes permit-to-purchase and magazine restrictions, remains on hold due to court injunctions. State continues legal efforts to reinstate it, with a focus on implementing the permitting process.Our Gear:We take most of our photos with the Samsung - Galaxy A71grab one = https://amzlink.to/az0Zl1seejIYwWe use Adobe SoftwareGrab a Subscription = https://amzlink.to/az044lzOkp15uthe Drone we used was a EXO X7 RangerGrab one = https://amzlink.to/az0UivgGkKP3fOur Laptop is a Dell Inspiron 7588 Get one = https://amzlink.to/az0p5e4Qrbc0lThe Wide Monitor that helps so much with editing is the Sceptre Curved 30" MonitorGrab one = https://amzlink.to/az0EUNxHCdfXj-------------------------------------Gun Websites.com is the hub of all our projects. http://GunWebsites.com ----------------------------------https://amzlink.to/az0vdb0rpFt9bAs an Amazon Associate I earn from qualifying purchases#adSupport our efforts online, check out our Firearm Playing Cards, Custom Patches & StickersOur online store is Gear Websiteshttp://GearWebsites.comThank You---------------------------------Check out all our projects on Patreonhttps://www.patreon.com/GunWebsites---------------------------------You can now join our channel & get a few perks !https://www.youtube.com/channel/UClNE86MlXLGrblx8lt1VCGg/join---------------------------------We encourage you to Take a CCW Class Every Year, Practice Every Month, and Carry Every DayThank you for watching Gun Websites !!

Res. 339) reaffirming Congressional support for the Second Amendment and praising President Trump for rolling back Biden-era restrictions on gun owners. Bill to Protect Tenants’ Gun Rights: Rep. Randy Feenstra reintroduced the PROTECT the Second Amendment Act (H.R. 2930), ensuring that landlords receiving federal funds cannot restrict tenants’ right to own firearms.

Rand Paul Investigates ATF Surveillance: Senator Rand Paul opened an inquiry into the ATF’s alleged secret surveillance program using the FBI’s NICS system to monitor lawful gun purchasers without Due Process.

LIVE Today for another 2A Media Workshop
Join in and be a part of the conversation
Strengthening the 2A Network Across America
Join us for an engaging and insightful discussion on how Second Amendment advocates from across the United States can join forces to combat restrictive gun laws. We dive into a detailed analysis of which states face the toughest challenges and how they can form alliances with "2A Sister States" that offer robust support and resources. Discover the unique ways these partnerships can create awareness, provide training, and support legal battles to protect and enhance gun rights nationwide. Don't miss this episode packed with strategic insights and actionable advice for every 2A supporter. Tune in and be part of the movement!
https://gunwebsites.substack.com/p/2a...
This idea has been in my head for a while, so today I decided to spend some time developing it. I asked a computer robot to solve this by asking
create a list of US states that would assist each other with 2nd amendment issues, preventing anti gun laws, creating awareness, providing training and assistance to each other, tag each state with "bad gun laws" that restrict individual freedom, and match up each of these affected states with 4 or more 'free states' that would best compliment each other. be thorough and think outside the box for these associations , list each affected state and the associated "2A Sister States" as bullet points with reasons why & how they can assist
the result was GOOD, but it used states more than once and did not use every state, so I refined the challenge with this
thank you very good, now please do this again without duplicating any states, and so all 50 are used
Here are the results:
We will go over & discuss these results LIVE
