Who is Robert Cekada and What Does His Nomination as ATF Director Mean for Gun Owners?
We here at 2 If By Sea Tactical, hope Mr. Cekada can help guide the Justice Department towards more pro-freedom arguments and support us gun owners and the 2nd Amendment. He is given an unenviable task. One that the ATF has repeatedly failed with deadly consequences. We are praying we will be a voice of reason and help us seize on the window we have for this short period of time to roll back restrictions.

Are FRT Triggers Legal in Minnesota or Just a Controversial Grey Area?
So regardless how the Federal Supreme Court rules when it finally steps into the FRT case, they more than likely will continue ruling on Administrative Procedure Act grounds.

The ultimate cure for states such as ours that is so heavily divided would be for the Supreme Court to take up and start ruling on the 2nd Amendment like they do the others.

Minnesota's Special Session on Gun Control Is It About to Happen?
The Founding Fathers understood what they were doing when they inserted the 2nd Amendment to the Constitution. They had just successfully led an armed rebellion over the largest and best trained military the World had ever seen to that point. They understood the implications, and dangers that such a stance would mean. However, they deemed the rewards and values of Freedom were greater than any risks.

Glock's 2025 Bombshell: What Surprised the Firearm Industry
Whether it is because of the financial burden of defending oneself in court. Or press hit pieces that follow; or outright bans in states via the Governmental Gatekeepers in their prospective states, Glock has opened up everyone to lawsuits. What may follow this decision could be dark for our industry and embolden those who want to see the 2nd Amendment erased entirely. We must remain vigilant and pray that Glock’s decision had actual meaning and is only a blip on the radar.
