The Supreme Court hears Viramontes, the assault weapons ban case, on December 2. So what does the other side actually argue? Michael plays an interview with Everytown Law's top Second Amendment litigator and answers her point by point: "weapons of war," the six appeals courts that upheld bans, history and tradition, and a common-use argument that ends up making our case for us.
Then Navy veteran Tate Adamiak, sentenced to 20 years after the ATF called his inert replicas and movie props machine guns, on the Sten replica the ATF lab rigged to fire one round, the raid with no warning, and the frozen accounts that left him "too rich" for a public defender. His full, uncut interview is on our channel as a Magnum Show episode. And Kostas Moros of the Second Amendment Foundation on the settlement that ends Contra Costa County's ban on red dots, weapon lights and single-action pistols like the 1911 for CCW holders.
Also this week: what the ATF's new NFA guidance does and doesn't mean in California, Alisha on the difference between owning a gun and being ready to use it, Stump My Nephew on the FN Auto-5, and Sam on US v. Miller, the first big NFA case.
