A flurry of new gun control laws go into effect in California on January first, some more draconian than others, but all intended to restrict guns rights.

A victory for collectors of vintage military firearms, and common sense, as the President signs legislation that requires historic weapons to be made available for public sale. The NRA has the story:

The House of Representatives passed a national concealed carry bill on Wednesday by a vote of 231-198.

Congress is weighing legislation to tighten the gaps in the existing background check system for firearms purchases. While that legislation may not be as effective as its proponents hope, background check failures are very real.

Gun control backers are crowing over the elections results from Virginia and New Jersey, as well as Washington state, where they claim gun control candidates won the day.

It didn't take long, but Democrat Sen. Diane Feinstein has introduced legislation to ban more than 200 types of firearms as well as creating a ban on bump stocks. But what does the bill really do?
