About This Episode:

Today, Riley Bowman and Jacob Paulsen are bringing you our Legislative and Legal Updates episode — and we're calling it The Glock Wars for a reason. Multiple states are moving simultaneously to ban the most popular handgun in America, a state AG is using civil litigation to do what gun control advocates said they'd never do, and a major new purchase permitting system is about to go live. The good news: the feds are fighting back in court, a long-standing carry restriction just got challenged, and one state's gun grabbers went 0-for-the-session. Buckle up!
