A federal court injunction has just gone into effect that could have major implications for the future of the NFA.Last year, as part of the One Big Beautiful Bill Act, the tax for certain NFA items was reduced from $200 to $0. That was already a huge win, but gun rights activism groups didn’t stop there. On August 5th, a federal court essentially ruled that aspects of the NFA are now unconstitutional.We are not lawyers, and all of this legalese gets complicated fast, but here’s a summary of what happened and what it means for gun owners as best as we currently understand the situation.Congress holds the broad power to lay and collect taxes. Because the extra burdens related to registering NFA items were only ostensibly in place to help facilitate the tax collection process, this was all ruled as being constitutional.

NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles! Three detransitioners claim they were pressured by doctors and hospitals when they were young to pursue gender transition, including medical treatment in two cases while they were minors, according to a new HHS-commissioned report.The stories of Clementine Breen, Soren Aldaco and Luke Healy were featured in the Department of Health and Human Services’ “Wolves in White Coats: How Doctors and Hospitals Pushed and Profited from the Fraud of “Gender Medicine” report released on Thursday. The HHS-commissioned report alleges financial incentives encouraged hospitals and doctors to provide gender transition treatments and identifies insurance billing practices that it says may be improper or warrant further investigation.Breen was only 12 years old and struggling with a changing adolescent body and unresolved trauma from earlier sexual abuse when the then-minor learned about gender transition online. Breen alleges, according to the HHS report, that doctors at Children’s Hospital Los Angeles told Breen’s parents the preteen was “100% trans” and at high risk of suicide without medical intervention.According to the report, Breen began puberty blockers at 12, testosterone at 13 and underwent a double mastectomy at 14.HHS OFFICIAL WARNS OF IRREVERSIBLE RISKS AS TRUMP ADMIN RESTRICTS FUNDING FOR YOUTH…

MoreFor most people, their EDC is carried in an inside-the-waistband holster. The problem with that is that you have to wear your shirts untucked. For some, this really isn’t an option for various reasons, and they need their shirt tucked in. A tucked-in shirt doesn’t have to mean leaving your EDC at home. With the right holster, belt, and shirt choice, you can stay armed and still look put together. Why Carry Tucked Various reasons for wearing a tucked-in shirt include attending a formal event, such as a wedding or an awards ceremony, working in an office setting where an untucked shirt is not allowed or looks unprofessional, or simply because it appears neater and more orderly. What Type of Holster Carrying your EDC with a tucked-in shirt requires a holster engineered for tuckable wear, without sacrificing access to your pistol when needed. The DeSantis Slim-Tuk is purpose-built for tucked carry, with a J-clip that leaves room to tuck fabric behind it. For the purposes of this article, I tested out the DeSantis Slim-Tuk Holster that fits the bill for tucked carry. It features a J-clip that provides space to tuck your shirt behind, allowing you to carry your pistol…
The funeral of Lindsey Graham, an infamous war-mongering senator, was full of more “gifts” and a celebration of war. In fact, Vladimir Zelensky, Ukraine’s ruler, and Benjamin Netanyahu, Israel’s ruler, led a procession at United States Senator Lindsey Graham’s funeral service. Zelensky described Graham as a “true friend” of the war-loving Ukraine. As for Netanyahu, Graham was also a close friend and ally, having a habit of cozing up to countries hell-bent on being in a constant state of war. In fact, Graham bragged earlier this year about “coaching [Netanyahu] on how to lobby [Trump] for action” against Iran. In additional video footage released by the Wall Street Journal on Sunday, Graham can be seen speaking to Netanyahu by phone, telling the Israeli prime minister that he was “going to try to get him to join with y’all in Lebanon, to maybe fly some with you.” Graham is well known for his constant demands for involvement in conflicts and war, and the desire for more funding to use more military force around the globe. His legacy will match the theme of his funeral. As RT put it: Graham’s legacy is one of constant agitation for US involvement in foreign wars. At the…

The top U.S. commander for the Middle East has warned troops that cellphone videos shared online can help Iran target American bases, and sources told Reuters some deployed personnel could soon be ordered to surrender their phones. Any crackdown on mobile communications would add a new dimension to the conflict for the thousands of U.S. troops in the region, many of whom still rely on phones to periodically message loved ones and assure them they are well.Adm. Brad Cooper, in a previously unreported letter, said Iran was benefiting from being able to see the success or failure of its strikes in near real-time by searching news reports or online posts by journalists referencing “reactions, photos, and footage from the cellphones of our troops.”“The direct, unavoidable cost of this open-source intelligence could be measured in the lives of American service members and civilian residents in targeted Gulf countries,” Cooper, head of U.S. Central Command, wrote in his July 28 letter, a copy of which was obtained by Reuters. He called on troops to “redouble our focus on operational security,” without prescribing specific steps in the memo.The warning underscored the mounting tensions between real-time news reporting on the war, often aided by…

The U.S. Marine Corps is offering early separation to enlisted Marines in two dozen military occupational specialties as part of a force-shaping effort tied to budget constraints.According to the July 1 policy message, the service announced the Voluntary Enlisted Early Release Program as “a deliberate force-shaping initiative” that allows eligible Marines to apply for separation before the end of the fiscal year.Yvonne Carlock, a spokeswoman for the service’s Manpower and Reserve Affairs, told USNI News that the program was “designed to balance the Marine Corps’ end strength and ensure long-term fiscal health and operational readiness.”The program allows certain enlisted Marines to leave active duty early if they meet eligibility requirements. According to the message, eligible Marines must serve in one of 24 military occupational specialties and have an end-of-active-service date on or before Sept. 30, 2026.The eligible fields range from infantry jobs and amphibious vehicle crews to Marine Corps band members and other specialties.The move comes despite the Marine Corps meeting both its recruiting and retention goals ahead of schedule last year. Earlier this year, the service also offered reenlistment bonuses of up to $50,000 for select enlisted jobs.The early-release program appears aimed at reshaping specific career fields rather than…
Palmetto State Armory has just launched the PSA 570 series, a modular, pump-action, 12-gauge shotgun system.After teasing it for the past couple of SHOT Shows, Palmetto State Armory has just launched the PSA 570. This 12-gauge shotgun system takes inspiration from both the Remington 870 and the Mossberg 500 and combines it with plenty of PSA’s original ideas. The PSA 570 was designed to be a modular system, and previous information about the concept included the ability to convert the shotguns to semi-auto, but we haven’t heard anything new about that yet. At least for this initial launch, the 570 is just a pump-action, but PSA says that more components and configurations will be released in the future, so keep an eye out for further developments.The initial PSA 570 launch features four models. Two come sporting PSA’s own furniture, and two come wearing Magpul MOE furniture, with each type available in either black or FDE. The furniture is also 870-pattern, so you can replace it with any aftermarket option that you want. Besides the furniture, the rest of these initial 570 models are the same. They’re 12-gauge, compatible with 3-inch shells, have 7-round magazine tubes and 18.5-inch barrels (fixed cylinder…
This article was originally published by Michael Snyder at The End of the American Dream under the title: On August 12th We Will Witness A Total Solar Eclipse, A Rare Parade Of 6 Planets, And The Peak Of The Perseid Meteor Shower It is not often that we get to experience three major celestial events on the exact same day. On August 12th, a rare parade of 6 planets will be visible before sunrise. Mercury, Mars, Jupiter, Uranus, Saturn, and Neptune will all be lined up across the morning sky. The only planet that we will not get to see will be Venus. Subsequently, there will be a spectacular total solar eclipse that will be visible in much of the northern hemisphere. And after the Sun goes down, the heavens will be teeming with shooting stars during the peak of the Perseid Meteor Shower. It truly will be one of the most memorable days that astronomers have experienced in a long time. It is normally quite rare to see a planetary parade that includes six different planets in the night sky. And it is exceptionally rare for such a planetary parade to occur on the date of a total solar…

The House of Representatives passed its version of the National Defense Authorization Act last week, leaving in place a controversial provision that would encourage co-development and co-production between the U.S. and Israeli defense industrial bases. The House’s version of this provision, known as Section 219, proposes further integration between the U.S. defense industrial base and Israel’s. It comes amid a dramatic shift in U.S. public opinion about military aid to Israel.Both the House and Senate versions of the provision would shift the model of security cooperation the U.S. and Israel now employ. Though there is already co-production between the two countries on weapons systems, those efforts historically have been limited to defensive systems like the Iron Dome. The House version creates an executive agent position within the Pentagon who would seek out and advocate for co-production opportunities.Rep. Ro Khanna, D-Calif., tried unsuccessfully to pass an amendment striking the measure when the bill was being debated in committee last month. Rep. Thomas Massie, R-Ky., has also been a vocal opponent. Proponents of the measure, including House Armed Services Committee Chair Mike Rogers, R-Ala., have argued it “actually improves oversight and accountability of these programs by designating a single official responsible for…
