Bearing Arms' Cam & Company

Clay target shooting is one of the fastest-growing high school sports in the nation, and it's especially booming in Minnesota, where 350 of the state's high schools are fielding teams. It's hard to find anyone critical of teaching high schoolers how to be safe and responsible with firearms while having a great day at the range... unless you talk to gun control activists who despise the idea of teenagers learning real gun safety and having fun doing so.

Biofire founder Kai Kloepfer joins Cam to discuss the launch of the company's "smart gun", its outreach to gun owners, and whether it can pick and choose its battles in the gun control culture wars.

The number of concealed carry applicants is plunging in at least one New York county in the wake of the Bruen decision, while those who are trying to exercise their fundamental right to bear arms are being subjected to unconscionable delays of 16 months or more in many cases.

Are ammunition magazines "arms" protected by the Second Amendment, or just an accessory that can be regulated or banned without infringing on anyone's rights? As Cam details, that's one of the questions at the heart of the federal trial over Oregon's Measure 114 taking place this week.

Illinois Gov. J.B. Pritzker and Democrat lawmakers are making it harder to challenge their unconstitutional infringements on the right to keep and bear arms with a new law limiting where those legal challenges can take place; forcing downstate residents to travel hundreds of miles to the state capitol of Springfield or Chicago in order to defend their fundamental civil liberties.

Rep. Andrew Clyde (R-GA) joins Cam with an important update on H.J. Res 44, a resolution that is designed to put a halt to the ATF's new rules on pistol stabilizing braces. After Clyde revealed on Friday that GOP leadership tried to tie a vote on the resolution to Clyde's support for the debt ceiling agreement, the congressman tells Bearing Arms that leadership is now feeling the heat from 2A groups and gun owners across the country.

Attorney Peter Tilem joins Cam to discuss New York City's ridiculous gun laws, which have now ensnared a 65-year-old man who shot a mugger. While the armed citizen isn't yet facing any charges in connection with the shooting, authorities have charged him with more than two dozen felony counts of illegal gun possession for not registering some of his collection with the city.

The D.A. in Queens, New York, has charged a 65-year-old man who shot a suspected mugger with illegally possessing his handgun and is weighing murder charges, but the family of the suspected assailant says they blame the state for putting their troubled relative on the streets when he needed serious help with his mental illness.

Holly Sullivan of the Connecticut Citizens Defense League joins Cam with an update on a massive anti-gun bill expected to receive final approval in the state Senate this week, as well as what gun owners can do to start changing the anti-gun political environment in the state.

According to one reporter for the Michael Bloomberg-funded outfit The Trace, the answer is yes. Alain Stephens says he believes there's been a political move to discourage gun ownership by limiting or prohibiting gun ranges... even as anti-gunners mandate extensive training requirements to carry a firearm or simply keep one in your home.

A new law establishing an "Extreme Risk Protection Order" is coming to Michigan, but dozens of counties are already objecting to the measure and encouraging local police and sheriffs to take a hands-off approach to enforcement.

Columnist LZ Granderson says the NBA (and the country at large) has a problem with "gun culture", but as Cam explains, what he's really describing is a culture of criminality far removed from responsible gun ownership.

Did the Supreme Court uphold a ban on so-called "assault weapons" this week or deliver gun control advocates an historic victory? Not at all, but you'd never know it by listening to the absurd narrative advanced by the anti-gun media.

Bearing Arms contributor, firearms instructor, and New Jersey concealed carry holder John Petrolino joins Cam to break down Tuesday's decision halting enforcement (at least for now) of several parts of the state's "carry killer" anti-gun legislation.

Corey Fraser and his attorney Elliott Harding join Cam to discuss the hugely important decision by a U.S. District Judge last week that found the federal government's prohibition on retail handgun sales to adults under the age of 21 is a violation of Fraser's (and others) Second Amendment rights.

An anti-gun activist says she's committed to repealing the Second Amendment and has set her sights on Colorado, where she's hoping hordes of "white women putting their bodies on the line" will show up for a sit-in at the state capitol until Gov. Jared Polis signs an executive order banning all gun sales and implementing a mandatory "buy back" of all lawfully-owned firearms.

Detroit firearms instructor and Second Amendment advocate Rick Ector says it would be a violation of the Second Amendment as well as state law for the city of Detroit to turn its downtown area into a "gun-free zone", but tells Bearing Arms Cam & Co that the anti-gunners on the city council may be floating the idea in an attempt to undo the state's firearm preemption law altogether.

Anti-gun activists are being widely mocked by their 2A counterparts after claiming a firearm-themed hoodie featured in a tweet from Sen. Rand Paul actually depicts "AR-15s having sex", is full of sexually explicit and misogynistic imagery, and is grooming kids to become gun-lovers.

But as gun owners know all too well, in blue states the Second Amendment is still being treated as a second-class right at best, and all too often a privilege to be doled out by the state. Gun Owners Action League executive director Jim Wallace joins Cam with a firsthand report at what's happening in Massachusetts when it comes to the Second Amendment, and why he believes this is the most important civil rights fight of our time.

The Washington Post claims that Democratic AGs are "using the courts to win" on gun control, but their reporting fails to mention even a single case in recent months where judges have sided with anti-gunners and ignores the multiple decisions that have kept many newly-imposed gun laws on ice while they're being litigated.

FASTER Colorado's Laura Carno says she's hearing from school districts across the state who are adopting policies allowing for armed school staff, with the Covenant School shooting in Nashville serving as a painful wake-up call for many educators concerned about keeping kids safe on campus.

Tennessee Gov. Bill Lee's done some good things for Second Amendment supporters, including signing constitutional carry into law. But as Cam explains, the governor's call for a special session to pass a "temporary mental health restraining order" bill is off-base and out of step with both public safety and our fundamental civil rights.

California Rifle & Pistol Association head and Second Amendment attorney Chuck Michel joins Cam to discuss the latest legal fights against Illinois' ban on "assault weapons", the many court challenges to California gun control laws, and what could be the first gun ban case to get back to SCOTUS after last year's Bruen decision.

Gun control groups have been demanding "smart guns" for decades, but now that a Colorado company is taking pre-orders for its $1600 pistol some anti-gun activists are starting to express surprising reservations about the tech.

Rep. Nancy Mace told Fox News Sunday's Shannon Bream that Republicans need to do more to respond to the threat of active shooter incidents, but while she argued that gun control isn't the answer, she also called on Congress to pass background check legislation; something most 2A advocates would argue is just another ineffective gun control "solution."
