Florida Department of Law Enforcement Loses in Court Over It Delaying Gun Purchases - Ammoland.com
Florida Carry’s recent legal victory will benefit every law-abiding Floridian seeking to purchase a firearm.
The Florida Carry, Inc., is proud to announce a major court victory against the administrative state in Florida. This victory will benefit every law-abiding Floridian who wants to purchase a gun. The case, Pretzer v. FDLE, was decided last week by the First District Court of Appeals.
Florida Carry General Counsel Eric J. Friday of Kingry & Friday, PLLC, in Jacksonville, with substantial assistance from U.S. Law Shield, brought the lawsuit against the Florida Department of Law Enforcement (FDLE) and director Rick Swearingen, who Mark Glass later succeeded.
“The case was filed to challenge their creation of a decision-pending response,” Friday said. “People had been waiting months to have a decision rendered by FDLE on a firearm purchase.”
When the case was originally filed, five plaintiffs had waited from one to eight months. Once FDLE was served, Friday said, the plaintiffs were all cleared within 48 hours of being named in the suit.
“They had the ability to clear them,” Friday said. “They just weren’t doing it.”

FOIA Request Issued to USPS to Determine Cause of Special AR-15 Delivery Delay - Ammoland.com
A Freedom of Information Act Request was sent to the United States Postal Service Office of Inspector General Tuesday by this correspondent via Return Receipt mail. The purpose is “to request information about a presumed investigation conducted after the U.S. Postal Inspector Service was notified about a shipment delayed in transit.”
Regular readers will recall remember the time Len Savage, president of Historic Arms LLC, sent the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) unassembled parts for an evaluation and they assembled it into an unmarked Short Barrel Rifle (SBR) with a brace in what looked suspiciously like an entrapment – after a four and ½ year wait. It took the Bureau so long to respond that the return postage Savage had originally included was no longer sufficient, as it had been raised twice.
We’ve been friends for a long time and in gratitude for my support over the years, including on AmmoLand and Firearms News, and much to my delighted surprise, Savage decided I should have the gun. It’s important to make this disclosure lest anyone challenges my motives or journalistic ethics. If they were compromised, I wouldn’t have mentioned this.
Savage shipped the rifle (now with a 16″ barrel) to my local Federal Firearms Licensee on July 2. It was estimated on the receipt to be delivered July 6. It was not. Every day thereafter I checked the tracking number, a couple times a day, and it was always still “in transit.”

Headpins - Head Over Heels
This album, man I just found this album again after YEARS of looking. I had forgotten about it until I found "You're Still the One" earlier. So a little more searching and here is the album. I hope you enjoy it. I know I am going to be enjoying it immensely.
Headpins - You're Still The One
A band from my youth in the 1980's. Until I was looking for something completely different and rediscovered their music on YouTube, which I had never thought would have a small band from Canada.
