In This Episode It’s an ACP Round Table! Join Weer’d, Erin, David, and Oddball as we discuss: The ATF has their new ruling on Pistol Braces, and it sucks! The ATF and the FBI have a watch list of people that alerts when they buy a gun.  (We already knew this, but it's good to see evidence.) Erin found an amazing tool that shows defensive gun use as it appears in the media aggregated in an interactive map. Last week we talked about the pending Illinois Assault Weapon Ban, and in the time it took to publish that show, the thing passed.  Thankfully, most of the state has chosen not to cooperate! A Federal Judge blocks the New Jersey anti-carry laws. Another Federal Judge allows the same in New York,  but it isn't all bad. We discuss a Canadian Mountie who broke the law, and made out pretty well because he's law enforcement. Finally, Wells Fargo is becoming more anti-gun, this time cancelling the business account of a gun shop in Florida. Did you know that we have a Patreon? Join now for the low, low cost of $4

Shannon Watts is leaving Moms Demand Action, and we speculate what her reasons might be. A woman in Philadelphia defended herself with a lawfully carried gun, and that's not even the most interesting thing about this story. Illinois is attempting to ban "Assault Weapons" and further restrict the Second Amendment to residents. The ATF is further cracking down on 80% Firearms. A friend of Erin was shot in Chicago! And saving the best for last, the Bumpstock Ban has been declared unconstitutional by the 5th Circuit!
