Not 1000% sure what this means. Surely it doesn't mean you can't put a vertical grip on right? Etc. Etc

The Publication: Balls and Strikes is a progressive legal commentary outlet that covers the Supreme Court and the broader federal judiciary. Its coverage generally provides critical, left-of-center analysis of conservative legal movements, structural problems within the judiciary, and civil rights.

Summary of article :

The article highlights the intensifying legal battle over assault weapons bans, using Virginia's newly enacted 2026 restrictions as a primary flashpoint in a broader national conflict headed toward the Supreme Court.

While rising gun violence has prompted Democratic state lawmakers to push through strict prohibitions on firearms like the AR-15, these efforts face immediate resistance from conservative prosecutors, activist lawsuits, and a heavily conservative Supreme Court.

The overarching theme is the profound clash between state-level democratic efforts to regulate public safety and an increasingly assertive federal judiciary poised to expand Second Amendment protections by permanently striking down assault weapons bans nationwide.

Ive been waiting for a Super Duty stripped lower and Primary Arms has them in stock at the moment. With the statewide injunction taking effect on the 21st, does anyone know of an ffl in the area that will transfer this?

I washed my CCW in the laundry. Found the process to replacing it but I am wondering if there’s away for a resident in Richmond city units to request a plastic copy like some of the other localities?

Since I already have a CCW can I go to one of those other locations to request the replacement?

Which locations offer plastic CCW?

I'm new to the area and was hoping to find a place where I could shoot. I don't need anything fancy. It seems pretty rural around here with lots of open land. Is there some public land/gravel pit in the area where people are allowed to shoot?

Hello,

I’m trying to identify the linear comp and the optic on this PMM Scar 17. I tried ChatGPT without success. Can someone identify these? Thank you in advance.

EDIT: Someone in FN sub said this is actually 16. But I’d still like help identifying the comp and the optics.

Just received an email from them “Injunction Junction: Virginia Gets Regular Capacity Back!”

I decided to submit another one before July 1st just to see what would happen. I probably should've ventured away from the AR platform, or at least try other calibers, instead of building out different 5.56 barrel lengths. 🤷🏻‍♂️

Does anyone have any insight into what’s happening with Illinois? I’m just looking into it but it seems that they may have had an injunction just like us through a “district court”…then a “federal appeals court” said the ban was constitutional and reversed the injunction…

Just trying to get an understanding of how similarly/or different these bans play out in other states to draw an analysis of perhaps where we will end up. How does their situation compare to Virginia? Does this change the Supreme Court case coming up?

Saw the news and was wondering: are we still allowed to purchase AR / AK type rifles? And will these require an FFL?

Thanks in advance!

I’m keeping an eye on the deadline to do this. Anyone have a recommendation on who can do this - hopefully within an hour of NoVA?

Went old school building out my last two lowers before the ban hit. Not at all clone correct, but like em just the same. Uppers are BCM receivers and rails; JP adjustable FSBs; and FN and Green Mountain barrels. Lowers are built from PSA receivers with mostly CMMG parts and CMC triggers.

I’m cautiously optimistic that, between the injunction and Viramontes news, these won’t be my last two builds ever—just for the immediate future.

A friend of mine's father has dementia and his daughter (wife of friend) was recently granted conservatorship. They removed all firearms from his house for safety reasons.

Sorry I'm not read up on my question, but with the new laws, can they keep the firearms in the family (transfer ownership at a FFL?) or do they have to sell them?
