Hey everyone,
 
The NFA news everyone has been waiting on landed Friday. The ATF will
no longer require approval or registration for suppressors, SBRs,
SBSs, and AOWs, nationwide, effective October 9 [5]. Not just for the
plaintiffs in the Texas case. Everyone. You can build or buy one
without waiting on a Form 1 or Form 4. You still fill out a 4473 at
the counter, prohibited persons are still prohibited, and machine guns
are untouched. Read the whole thing before you celebrate though,
because the letter lists five things that did not change, and the last
one is the trap: state law. If your state’s NFA exception is written
around federal registration, a can that’s fine with ATF can still be
a felony at home. ATF will still take a voluntary Form 1 or Form 4,
and in some states that may be the only way to stay inside the
exception. Get a lawyer’s eyes on your state code first.
 
FPC is already working that problem. Its lawyers sent letters to the
attorneys general of Alaska and 14 other states [6] whose laws tie
suppressor and SBR legality to the federal process, asking them to
stop enforcing now while legislatures repeal. Colorado, Connecticut,
Georgia, Michigan, Mississippi, Montana, Nevada, North Carolina, North
Dakota, Ohio, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Washington, and Wisconsin are the
other 14. It’s a letter, not a court order, and nobody has answered
yet. A federal win you can’t use at home isn’t finished.
 
Maine quietly stopped honoring permits from Arkansas, Indiana, South
Dakota, and Tennessee, four states that still honor Maine’s permit,
and nobody has said why [7]. Maine law says it recognizes any state
that recognizes Maine, no agreement needed. The statute didn’t
change. The four states didn’t change. The list did. I’ve updated
the reciprocity maps and asked the State Police for an answer. Maine
is permitless carry, but a recognized permit still matters there:
without one you have to declare on police contact, and only permit
holders can carry in state parks.
 
A federal judge refused to block Maryland’s Glock ban [8], so it’s
on track for January 1. Judge Bennett leaned on the Fourth Circuit’s
assault weapons ruling and found the state can regulate “excessively
dangerous weapons.” Switches are already illegal. Converting a
pistol is already a crime. This law does nothing to the criminal and
takes the pistol off the shelf for everyone else. If what a criminal
could do with a screwdriver makes your gun too dangerous to own, I
don’t see where that reasoning stops. In Virginia, GOA and VCDL are
back in the same court that already said under-21 adults can buy
handguns, suing the State Police over the new purchase ban and private
sale background check law [9].
 
Five DGU stories, and the Florida one stuck with me. A 77-year-old
woman feeding stray cats at 4:30 in the morning was pushed into her
car outside a Macclenny vet hospital, and when the man kept assaulting
her, she shot and killed him [10]. Here at home, a New Orleans
homeowner shot and killed a 29-year-old trying to break in before 7
a.m., and NOPD says he won’t be charged [11]. In Texas, a
hallucinating, blood-covered intruder broke in at random and cornered
a homeowner in his bedroom with his wife and kids home [12]. In
Virginia, residents came home Friday night to find a stranger lying in
an upstairs bed [13], and the altercation ended with him dead and no
charges for now. And in Georgia, a stranger’s demand that a DoorDash
driver buy him a 20 piece escalated to a shove, an open car door, and
three rounds [14].
 
 
_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 [15], 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 [16] are the exact same tags in that video and
article, just with the USA Carry logo on them. I finally have them in
hand and all pre-orders have been shipped. They are already selling
fast, so get in while the first run lasts.

For years I tracked round counts in a spreadsheet. Armorer [17] is
what I built instead. Service logs, service intervals, magazines, and
serial numbers locked behind zero-knowledge encryption that even I
can't read. Available on iOS and Android. Get your collection in now,
because I've got a big update dropping next week that makes logging a
range trip a whole lot faster.
