ATF Set to Introduce New Frames and Receivers Rule - Ammoland.com
In a filing in VanDerStok et al, v. Bondi et al. (formerly VanDerStok v. Garland), the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives (ATF) has asked the United States District Court for the Northern District of Texas, Fort Worth Division, to stay the case for 90 days due to an upcoming rule change.
The ATF’s Frames and Receivers Rule (officially Final Rule 2021R-05F, titled “Definition of ‘Frame or Receiver’ and Identification of Firearms”) is a 2022 regulation issued by the ATF. It updated the regulatory definitions of “firearm,” “frame,” and “receiver” under the Gun Control Act of 1968 (GCA). The rule effectively restricts the sale or transfer of most unfinished firearm frames and receivers that are not serialized – colloquially known as “80% firearms.” Although the official term is privately manufactured firearms (PMFs), anti-gun groups have demonized these items as “ghost guns.”
The rule was published in the Federal Register on April 26, 2022, and took effect on August 24, 2022. It remains in force following the U.S. Supreme Court’s 7-2 decision in Bondi v. VanDerStok (2025), which upheld the rule against a facial challenge.

Hegseth Signs Memo Allowing Soldiers to Carry Personal Sidearms on DOW Property - Ammoland.com
Military policy on carrying personal firearms just got flipped by Secretary of War Pete Hegseth, who signed a memo directing military base commanders to allow personnel—“namely, uniformed service members”—to carry privately owned firearms “while in their nonofficial duty capacity on DOW property within the United States.”
Hegseth signed the memo while announcing the new policy on a video posted on “X” on Thursday. In his announcement, which ran just over 2 minutes, 30 seconds, Hegseth noted, “Before today, it was virtually impossible—most people probably don’t know this—for War Department personnel to get permission to carry and store their own personal weapons aligned with the state laws where we operate our installations. Effectively, our bases across the country were gun-free zones, unless you’re training, or unless you’re a military policeman, you couldn’t carry. You couldn’t bring your own firearm for your own personal protection onto post. Well, that’s no longer.”

Having internet issues in my area.
even using data on my cell phone, connectivity is really bad, whether I'm on Wi-Fi, wired direct, or on 4G or 5G. I don't know exactly what the issue is, but it started last night. After fighting with it for several hours I said the heck with it and went to bed. I just got up an hour ago, and I am STILL fighting with garbage connectivity.
So updates today may be scarce.
