An additional wrinkle: I first started my W&C application in 2020 and the system saved the partial until I returned in 2022, post-bruen.
My application in 2022, Post-Bruen, is being processed under "20HGP013888" application number.
I believe the serial numbers refer to actual applications...
What is an estimate of the availability of training classes? That will be real bottleneck. For example, assume 40 classes are run every weekend (most people probably attend 16 hours on the weekend) and each class handles 20 people. That is 3,200 people / month and it will take 12 months to...
The only "good news" is that this extreme list of TPM restrictions stands an excellent chance of receiving a temporary injunction while the actual case winds its way through the courts.
Hogan has officially directed MSP to cease using "G&S" on CCW applications.

I admit that I was part of the optimistic crowd for NYSRPA. However, I am now bracing for a denial across the board on Friday. If SCOTUS can't issue a decision defining the contours of 2A rights in a case where the defendant (NY State) has "given up", why should I expect a Grant of Cert in the...
You have misunderstood the entire situation. Once you start curtailing rights for some, in a misguided attempt to promote those same rights for others, you will embark on a never-ending adventure in which there is always an argument to restrict further rights.
Voter fraud is definitely a problem. Democrat counties intentionally let the voter roles swell over the years and never drop ineligible voters (felons, etc).
This makes voter fraud easy as any one can enter the polling booth and provide "a name" that is on the rolls and vote, or use an...
Actually, an En Banc reversal would bring the DC CA more in line with other circuits (2nd, 3rd and 4th) and reduce or eliminate any circuit split. I believe only the 7th CA has a ruling (Moore) that is friendly to "shall-issue".
Why wouldn't the opportunity to combine Peruta and Norman be advantageous to SCOTUS? This would allow SCOTUS to address both Open Carry (Norman) and the G&S ruse in CA that is used to dissuade almost everyone from applying in the first place.
It has a long trigger pull that makes it awkward for me to shoot well. If you have bigger hands, the awkward effect is even more pronounced. I have shot a Bersa 380 and the trigger was much better on the Bersa.
The bill was signed into law. Takes effect July 1st.

I appreciate your story, but recognize that this example has no application to the argument at hand. For example, indulge the following story that replaces the CCW activity with another activity:
"Person A is denied the opportunity to open a bank account because Person A has a past...
