S13E21: Legislative Updates – The Glock Wars
About This Episode:
In this episode we cover a range of legislative and legal developments affecting firearms owners, including Colorado’s permit-to-purchase system and similar proposals in states such as New York, California, Illinois, and Maryland. We also discuss a New Jersey subpoena for firearm dealer records in a lawsuit involving Glock sales, along with privacy concerns tied to those records.
We further review federal litigation, including DOJ lawsuits over magazine limits and Denver’s assault weapons ban, a challenge to the federal post office carry ban, and a cert petition in Maryland over sensitive places restrictions. We close with Minnesota’s failed gun control bills and a discussion of how AI-assisted legal research can produce faulty citations in Second Amendment cases.

Regarding the New Jersey AG trying to get the records of Glock sales;
The NJ State Police already has a record of every firearm sold. They can use that data to make their case against Glock, however that data cannot be released to the public (by law). These subpoenas are an attempt to bypass that privacy guarantee and put the ownership data in the public record. If successful, they can repeat this privacy end-run strategy to out the owners of ARs, Colt, S&W, etc.
