California’s Glock ban is now in effect, the Trump Justice Department is fighting back, and a federal judge has refused to temporarily block the controversial gun law. On this episode of Armed American Radio, nationally syndicated host Mark Walters is joined by Paul Markel of Student of the Gun for a hard-hitting discussion about California gun control, Second Amendment rights, Glock pistols, the DOJ lawsuit, and the growing battle over so-called “machine gun convertible pistols.”
Mark breaks down the federal court’s refusal to issue a temporary restraining order against California’s Glock ban and examines the judge’s stunning reasoning that the law does not create irreparable harm because it restricts firearms dealers from selling certain pistols rather than banning their continued possession.
But the conversation goes much deeper.
If California bans ordinary law-abiding citizens from buying certain Glock pistols, should Glock continue selling and servicing those same firearms for California law enforcement agencies? Should gun manufacturers refuse to provide police and government agencies with firearms, magazines, or equipment that civilians in those same states are prohibited from owning?
Mark Walters and Paul Markel tackle the controversial question head-on, examining the double standard of “rules for thee but not for me,” the firearms industry’s responsibility in the fight for the Second Amendment, and whether gun owners would reward companies willing to take a stronger stand against unconstitutional gun control.
The discussion also highlights CMMG’s approach to restrictive states, the role of the Ninth Circuit, the Trump administration’s Department of Justice and Civil Rights Division, and the potentially historic Supreme Court cases that could ultimately reshape the future of so-called assault weapons bans and other restrictions on commonly owned firearms.
This episode is about far more than Glock. It’s about California gun laws, Second Amendment litigation, constitutional rights, government exemptions, law enforcement carve-outs, gun manufacturers, firearms industry accountability, and the future of the right to keep and bear arms in America.
If the government can ban a commonly owned firearm for ordinary citizens while exempting itself from the same restrictions, what does that say about equal protection, individual liberty, and the Second Amendment?
Listen now as Mark Walters and Paul Markel break down the California Glock ban, the federal court battle, the DOJ challenge, and the question the firearms industry can no longer ignore.
