BREAKING :

The survivors of the Rancho Tehama shooting are suing the industry that they say allowed Kevin Neal to kill five people, and injure 18 others. After a domestic violence arrest, Neal was banned from having guns. So he built his murder weapons -- two homemade AR-15 style rifles called ghost guns. So-called ghost gun companies sell parts that can be assembled into these weapons. As long as those parts are 80% complete or less... normal gun laws do not apply.

Moments after firing a gun for the first time, Alicea Burton proudly displayed the result of her marksmanship: a human silhouette target perforated with more than two dozen 9 mm holes.

On the third anniversary of the tragic February 2018 school shooting at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Florida, President Joe Biden issued his administration’s first significant push for new gun control measures.

It’s widely understood that the current occupants of the White House, the Biden-Harris Administration, have positioned themselves as the most anti-gun team this country has ever seen on Pennsylvania Avenue. Leading up to the 2020 election, NRA made abundantly clear the threats these two presented to law-abiding gun owners, and both the President and Vice President spelled out how deeply opposed they each are to the fundamental right to purchase, possess, and carry firearms for personal protection.

TN Gov. Bill Lee is renewing his push to allow handguns to be carried in public without a permit, and local law enforcement leaders are pushing back with renewed opposition. Lee announced during his recent State of the State address that he will push again for the legislation, which failed to make it through the Tennessee General Assembly’s COVID-shortened session last year.

Sales of guns and ammunition have been surging since the pandemic began. A lot of the demand is coming from first-time buyers looking to train on their new guns. At Staudt’s Gun Shop, they used to sell a case of ammo a day. Now they’re only getting a shipment of one case a week. Nationwide, according to Small Arms Analytics, firearm sales in July were up about 135% compared to last year. “We’re effectively doing about triple the amount of business that we were doing this time last year and it’s been that way since March,” said Kurt Green, manager at Staudt’s Gun Shop. Green says between the pandemic itself and recent protests and riots, many people want to protect themselves. “Bought a firearm today and it was a 9-millimeter and due to the ammo shortage they have no 9-millimeter ammunition and that’s pretty much my understanding throughout the area,” said customer Kurt Kauffman. “Slowly but surely, we are having enough in the store to support firearms that we’re selling, but it is an uphill battle,” Green said.
