ALBUQUERQUE, NM — Gun-rights organizations, three Albuquerque firearm retailers and a prospective buyer sued New Mexico Attorney General Raúl Torrez on October 19, asking a federal judge to block enforcement of the state’s seven-day firearm waiting period against them, their customers and their members. The complaint in NSSF v. Torrez, filed in the U.S. District Court for the District of New Mexico, follows the earlier Ortega v. Grisham challenge. The plaintiffs contend that state officials continue enforcing the delay against people outside that earlier case despite the challengers’ court victory. The National Shooting Sports Foundation, National Rifle Association and Second…

WASHINGTON, DC — The U.S. Supreme Court declined Monday to hear a challenge to Maine’s 72-hour firearm waiting period, leaving in place an appeals court decision that removed a preliminary injunction against the law. The October 19 order in Beckwith v. Frey does not decide whether Maine’s restriction complies with the Second Amendment.

Firearms instructor Andrea Beckwith, East Coast School of Safety, individual purchasers and firearms businesses sought review of an April 3 First Circuit decision.…

Made of 3D-printed, Purposely Induced Porosity titanium, Zastava’s ZVUK suppressor is a seriously lightweight way to hush up your AK.One of the great things about suppressors exploding in popularity is that it’s made room in the market for more niche, specialized designs. Why have one ultra-versatile suppressor that you swap between several guns when it’s never been cheaper, easier, or faster to have multiple dedicated cans for individual firearms? That’s how I’m treating Zastava’s ZVUK suppressor, anyway, as the can that will stay married to my WASR-10.Of course, at its core the ZVUK is just a HUB-compatible .30-caliber suppressor, so…

JUNEAU, AK — Acting Alaska Attorney General Cori Mills is urging the next Legislature to resolve a conflict between state firearm rules and changed federal enforcement, while lawmakers from both parties are discussing legislation to address it. Mills announced the request October 15. Alaska’s News Source reported October 16 that state Sen. Scott Kawasaki, a Fairbanks Democrat, wants legislation to advance next session and Republican Rep. Mike Prax is working on a companion measure. Those efforts are proposals, not an enacted fix. The Department of Law has asked police to consult state prosecutors before bringing charges under the affected state…
PROSSER, WA — A man jailed after fatally shooting his half-brother near Prosser, Washington, was released October 15 after Benton County prosecutors said further review indicated he likely acted in self-defense.

Prosecutors said there was insufficient evidence to continue holding him, according to local reporting by NonStop Local and the Tri-City Herald. Investigators initially received a report of a drive-by shooting at a home in the 24000 block of North…

The plaintiffs, William Wehr-Darroca and Gary Stemple, want the court to reverse a standing dismissal and allow their Second Amendment lawsuit to proceed. Their new filings seek a route back into court rather than announcing a decision against the magazine restriction. The District’s law generally prohibits…
