Hey everyone,

Big backlog in this one, so let's get to it.

Episode 69 of Flying with Guns is up, American from Chattanooga to New Orleans via Charlotte. Watch it on YouTube | Facebook | Instagram | TikTok | LinkedIn | Threads | X | Rumble

And Ammunition Depot launched AmmoVault, an ammo reserve you can build $5 at a time. Video on Facebook | Instagram | X

The story that should have every firearms creator paying attention: James Reeves was subpoenaed for being a guntuber. The Highland Park lawsuit against Smith & Wesson is now reaching into firearms media and treating unpaid reviews as advertising. If that theory sticks, it touches everyone who has ever posted an honest opinion about a gun they bought themselves.

Also worth your time: the CPRC's 12-year review found armed citizens stopped 36.6% of active shooter events, and 58.3% in 2025. The FBI put that number at 3.9%. That gap is the whole argument. And the flip side of it in one case: the 19-year-old who shot the Dearborn mall shooter after he killed one man and wounded another got two years probation for carrying without a permit.

Reciprocity is knocking on the Supreme Court's door from two directions. A long-haul trucker with Florida and Georgia permits is asking the Court to strike down Minnesota's refusal to honor them, and another Minnesota gun owner is asking whether Americans need a license from all fifty states to carry.

More from the courts and the states:

Harmeet Dhillon put San Jose on a six-day clock over that $1,591 permit fee
Missouri's AG sued the ATF to strike NFA registration for suppressors and SBRs
The Third Circuit revived NSSF's challenge to New Jersey's gun industry liability law
SAF is asking New Jersey's Supreme Court to step in for a man licensed in ten states but denied a gun ID card over online posts
Maryland's sensitive places case is fully briefed
A federal judge let the out-of-state challenge to Massachusetts permit delays proceed
The Virgin Islands responded to a permit delay lawsuit by passing an AR-15 ban, so now DOJ is suing over that too
California's AB 2047 would ban selling a 3D printer in the state unless it refuses to print a gun

On the DGU side, the Memphis one is unbelievable. A man attacked at home by two intruders wrestled the gun away from the one who said "watch this," then shot him with it. An armed customer stopped a knife-wielding suspect demanding cash inside a Texas Chase Bank at 9 a.m. An armed Vancouver homeowner detained a man deputies now say torched a furniture warehouse and a vintage rail car. Closer to home, the Jefferson Parish Sheriff's Office called a Metairie road rage shooting justified.

More home defense cases: South Carolina, Mobile, Natchez, and Wichita. Plus two loose dog attacks that ended with gunfire, in Norfolk and Fort Pierce.

A little self-promotion:

New product to tell you about. PewCulture sent me a set of their travel tags, I made a video about them, and then we got to talking. Long story short, I liked them enough that we worked out a deal to white label them, and I put in an order for 100 sets. USA Carry Travel Tags are the exact same tags in that video and article, just with the USA Carry logo on them. They're on preorder as of today and are already selling fast, so get in while the first run lasts.

Download the app I built, Armorer and give it a spin. Android is live, the iPad version is now fully optimized, and version 1.5 brought some solid new features. It's the best way to get your collection organized — takes about ten minutes to get started.
