Nevada’s “Ghost Gun” Law

2022-03-03T17:56:41-06:00March 3rd, 2022|Tags: , |

In December 2021, a Nevada state court judge invalidated portions of the new Nevada “ghost gun” law. The statute, which had an effective date of January 1, 2022, addresses unserialized firearms. While the court ruling suspends certain parts of the law, the ultimate fate of the law is yet to be decided. The law is surrounded by a sharply divided public opinion with gun owners, gun rights advocates, manufacturers, law enforcement, and gun control advocacy groups holding strong opinions.

2023-08-02T12:19:13-05:00March 2nd, 2022|Tags: , |

Building AR-15s is often referred to as “Legos® for adults,” and while the general fit-and-create concept applies, there’s a lot more to successfully putting together a reliable firearm than making a Lego tower. When you realize how many parts it takes to build an AR-15—about 65 to 100, depending on configuration—it might seem overwhelming. Consider this your one-stop read to find out what individual components are necessary to build an AR-15.

How to Ship a Firearm: Is It Legal?

2022-03-02T13:13:00-06:00March 1st, 2022|Tags: , |

If you haven’t shipped a firearm yet, odds are good you’ll do so in the future. Not only are guns shipped for sales, but they’re also shipped for repairs, custom Cerakote® finishes, and more. However, you can’t just throw your gun into a box and mail it using whatever means are most convenient at the time. There are federal and state laws in place regarding shipping firearms that you must know and follow. Remember, claiming ignorance of the law isn’t a valid legal defense.

Domestic Violence and Gun Ownership: Is it Legal?

2022-02-23T23:51:24-06:00February 24th, 2022|Tags: , |

A common question among survivors of family violence is “Can you buy a gun if convicted of domestic violence?” It’s understandable to wonder if a person who was convicted of domestic violence will be allowed to purchase a firearm. And while the short answer is generally “no,” the specific laws and potential enforcement—or lack thereof—tend to vary by state.

The AR-15: Weapon of War, or Ideal Self-Defense Tool?

2022-03-23T12:02:51-05:00February 23rd, 2022|Tags: , |

Since at least the 1990’s, the name “AR-15” has been a staple of the national debate surrounding gun control and is as widely used as it’s poorly understood. If you ask a non-gun enthusiast in the United States to name a rifle, the AR-15 is one of the most likely to come to mind, either due to its popularity in video games, media coverage, TV, movies, or from real-life firearms experience.

AR Pistol Brace: Fun or Felony?

Since 2013, the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) estimates that over 3 million stabilizing braces, or pistol braces, have been sold in the U.S. With over a dozen designs available on the market, they are mostly meant to be used with AR-15 style pistols. Pistol braces are devices meant to improve the shootability of large-format, intermediate caliber pistols, without shouldering a stock.

Kyle Carruth and Chad Read: A Custody Dispute Gone Wrong

2022-02-11T18:03:38-06:00February 11th, 2022|Tags: , |

What should have been a simple custody exchange turned into a deadly shooting caught on video. Did Kyle Carruth murder Chad Read, or was he simply defending himself from an unlawful use of force? Until the matter is decided by the court, there will be no definitive answer—but the existence of video recordings of the incident from two different angles has public opinion divided. A case can be made in either direction, but Kyle Carruth’s fate won’t be decided by public opinion. Ultimately, his fate—and his freedom—rests in the hands of the legal system.
