Retired ATF Special Agent: Patrick ‘Tate’ Adamiak’s Conviction Should Be Overturned and He Should Be Freed

Gun Rights Orgs Ask Attorney General Bondi to Scrap Her Plan to Merge ATF and DEA

ATF Reinterprets Rules to Allow Import of UTM, Simunition Training Rounds, Dual-Use Barrels

Justice Thomas: Until the Court Enforces its Rulings, The Second Amendment Remains a Second Class Right
On the Court’s logic, ATF could at any time declare AR–15s to be machineguns prohibited by federal law. Until we resolve whether the 2A forecloses that, law-abiding AR–15 owners must rely on the goodwill of a federal agency to retain their means of self-defense.
ATF Fixes Minor Issues While Ignoring Major Problems
