Is Pam Bondi Creating A Gun Owners Registry In America?
A federal judge in Reese v. ATF recently ordered gun rights groups—among them the Second Amendment Foundation and Firearms Policy Coalition—to provide a verified membership list to the government, a demand that has drawn fierce criticism and fueled fears of a de facto gun registry.

In the case Reese v. ATF, US District Judge Robert Summerhays ordered that plaintiffs including the Second Amendment Foundation (SAF) and Firearms Policy Coalition (FPC) turn over a verified list of their members from November 2020, a decision reached after the Department of Justice (DOJ) convinced the court of its necessity. This order extends only to those groups’ members already identified and verified during the litigation, the DOJ argued. In reaction, SAF immediately filed a motion to amend, declaring that “SAF has never — and will never — provide the government a list of our members.”

The demand, critics say, amounts to a state-sponsored registry of gun rights activists. Gun Owners of America slammed the move on social media: “This is just another illegal, unconstitutional registry of gun owners in the making,” the group argued on Facebook. They directly accused Pam Bondi of orchestrating a gun registry by leveraging DOJ power.
Pam Bondi’s Record on Gun Policy Adds Fuel to Fears
The timing and nature of the membership demand has stirred controversy for Bondi, whose track record includes support for red-flag laws in Florida and backing age-based gun purchase limits. GunRights.org’s profile of her record notes she helped draft Florida’s 2018 “Gun Violence Restraining Order” legislation, giving law enforcement authority to seize firearms temporarily in certain cases. Questions persist as to whether, now as US Attorney General, Bondi’s DOJ will more aggressively push oversight over gun rights groups.
Bondi has defended her department’s direction at her Senate Judiciary Committee hearing, accusing critics of politicizing justice while asserting that the DOJ will “end weaponization.” She declined to comment in detail on the membership disclosure matter, citing ongoing litigation.
A Narrow Order, But Precedent or Overreach?
The court order is itself limited: it applies only to the small subset of members already identified, verified, and residing in the Fifth Circuit (Mississippi, Louisiana, Texas). The majority outside that jurisdiction appear unaffected. Legal analysts caution, however, that even a narrow ruling can set a precedent. As legal blog Guns.com put it, the court found the federal ban on handgun sales to 18–20-year-olds unconstitutional in principle—but then demanded the lists anyway, “an almost laughable contradiction.”
SAF and FPC are asking the judge to change the language from “shall provide” to “may provide” in the judgment to avoid forced disclosure. The DOJ joining that motion suggests it sees the optics risk. But for critics, the damage is done — the public is left wondering whether that “all available funds” rhetoric by Bondi includes power to peer into private associations.

Glocks are among the most popular handguns sold in California. Even former Vice President Kamala Harris owns one. But Californians will no longer be able to buy a new Glock gun in the state.
Democrat Gov. Gavin Newsom signed a bill into law that bans the sale of new Glock guns in California.
At issue, the new Glock design allows the gun to be easily modified with a Lego-sized piece of plastic known as a "Glock Switch" that can be 3-D printed to turn it into a fully automatic weapon...

This is a MUST SEE Video.
Do not ignore it.
If you have firearm license to carry in your state, you need to be checking NOW that your license is currently in the system.
If they pulling this BS in Chicago, good chance they doing it in your state.
Possession of the card/license is not enough nowadays for Black folks.
Thans, just seeing this.
Picture drone warfare, domestically. A scattergun is your best friend.But bruh you still bought that Creator lol it's like "I know she's a heaux but don't tell me, I love her"type shitSeriously, I like this gun but I have a problem with buying due to cool factor vs practicality. While my EDC will be something reliable I can't formulate why I need a Tavor shotgun outside of the mere fact it looks cool as shit. But answer me this...what has really blown you away in a gun purchase recently and why?
I hate I sold that VEPR 12!
Drones? This on some Arc Raiders type thinking but yea lets get to the eyeopening part of your reply lol SOLD? I don't even know I could bring myself to do that. Which is funny because I have multiple VEPRs but selling never crossed my mind. Ever.
Sigh... I was down bad. Shit was sitting in the box it came in hid away, I would forget I had it at times.
Yes, mainly with reloads I believe. I buy in bulk. Never had an issue with pressure pr blowing up, pistol or rifle caliber.
I've seen this several times with 9mm WWB (Winchester White Box) ammo. This is the primary reason that I steer clear.

Sloppy record keeping etc... shouldn't be allowed to affect people's lives, especially when those people have literally placed their asses on the line in times of trouble.
Barrel nut needed to be tightened, been good since. Still need to upgrade scope.
Recently got an Savage Axis that came with a scope and it's way clearer and brighter.
