Record-Setting Interest in Self-Defense
<[link removed]>

Two trend lines related to our issue have diverged in a remarkable way
that indicates that firearms and the 2nd Amendment are fundamental
American mainstays. We’ve covered the string of record-breaking NICS
background check numbers since the onset of the pandemic, and July
NICS data continues that trend. New data from Gallup shows that gun
control has slid further down Americans’ list of most important
issues, and a deeper dive into NICS data suggests that new gun owners
and the need for self-defense are driving the 2020 surge.

Appellate Court Reinstates Challenge to Maryland’s Handgun Licensing
Scheme
<[link removed]>

Last Monday, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit
reinstated an NRA-supported challenge to Maryland’s convoluted
handgun licensing scheme. An earlier trial court decision had
dismissed the case on technical grounds, claiming the plaintiffs
lacked standing to bring the lawsuit. Three judges of the Fourth
Circuit overruled that erroneous decision, finding that a gun store
plaintiff has standing to raise a Second Amendment challenge on behalf
of its customers. The case is Maryland Shall Issue v. Hogan.
