This week on The Second Amendment Report, we examine a federal court's ruling against the ATF's Frame & Receiver Rule and what it could mean for the agency's authority. We also discuss DOJ's new firearm-rights restoration program and whether someone should permanently lose a constitutional right because of a decades-old offense. Then we shift gears to the gun counter, exploring why used firearms and police trade-ins can offer incredible value—and whether your next $1,000 is better spent on another gun or on ammunition, training and becoming a better shooter.

This week on The Second Amendment Report, we look at what comes next after GOA's major NFA court victory and whether the ruling could ultimately lead to a broader challenge to the NFA.

This week on The Second Amendment Report, we examine a federal court ruling declaring key portions of the National Firearms Act unconstitutional and discuss what it could mean for suppressors, short-barreled firearms, and the future of Second Amendment litigation. We also look at the Idaho In-N-Out shooting and the lessons it offers about training, situational awareness, and the role of responsibly armed citizens during a violent attack. Then we recap the biggest moments from GOALS 2026, including major product announcements and why bringing the Second Amendment community together remains so important. Finally, we explore whether carrying a suppressed pistol for everyday self-defense is a practical option—or simply an interesting idea with limited real-world application.
