One Step at a Time

Quote of the Day

The U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) has settled three lawsuits involving Rare Breed Triggers, a gun parts manufacturer. The settlement resolves federal efforts to regulate forced-reset triggers, which enable semi-automatic rifles to fire rapidly. The outcome marks a significant victory for firearms advocates and follows Attorney General Pam Bondi’s commitment to relax restrictions on Second Amendment rights.

  1. Now if AG Bondi could rein in — or fire — the various U.S. Attorneys who are still filing briefs in staunch opposition of 2A rights, that would be swell.

    And if it’s not too much trouble, start investigating states that are continuing to restrict 2A rights in the worst (and dumbest) ways. And start prosecuting the people passing new unconstitutional laws.

    I’m not talking about laws WE believe are unconstitutional but haven’t yet been adjudicated. I’m talking about new laws that are carbon-copies of laws in other states that have already been ruled unconstitutional.

    • Prosecuting legislators is a very dangerous path to go down. There is a reason why they are protected from arrest for their legislative acts and immune from libel and slander for what they say and write while in a legislative session.

      You really don’t want to go down this particular path because it ‘s a shortcut to tyranny and totalitarian government.

  2. An FRT switch could be possible for the most ubiquitous polymer handgun model… Illegal ones push the sear downward, but simply pushing the sear/trigger bar forward far enough to engage the disconnector ramp, allowing the ramp to then pull sear engagement surfaces apart ought to make this device legal.

    Crazy to think the angle of the engagement surface of such an accessory carries the same legal penalty as tying a shoelace to your Mini-14.

    • As my Property Law Professor famously said (shouted, really) “Reason” Hell, there is no reason, It’s just the law!”

  3. Without legislation codifying this OR a SCOTUS ruling that definitively protects such inventions all it will take is the DNC to retake the White House…which eventually WILL happen, install their own shill as AG and the assault on firearms parts will resume and expand.

    • But, the agreements between the manufacturers and the government are, in essence, contracts. A future administration can’t undo the agreements. They are closed cases.

      • Really? Ask Harvard how their federal contracts are going, not that I disapprove.

        • These are court agreements. Different, but perhaps not enough to make a difference to a hostile administration.

          • I have had it reported to me that “contracts” are only as strong as the inventiveness of the attorney challenging them and the pliability of the judges therein.

            Which is a separate issue from the complete disregarding of judgments from the judiciary, eg., Bruen and New York. That one isn’t done playing out, but one would hope that resolution would occur slightly faster than “glacial;” due process and deep consideration both have value, but consideration in such matters is rarely given to the “average expected life span” of those most injured.
