Nonviolent Felons Have Second Amendment Rights, 2A Groups Argue in SCOTUS Brief

WASHINGTON, D.C. – Today, Firearms Policy Coalition (FPC) announced the filing of an important Supreme Court brief in the case of Melynda Vincent v. Attorney General Pam Bondi, a challenge to the federal lifetime ban on the exercise of the right to keep and bear arms for nonviolent felons. FPC is joined by FPC Action Foundation (FPCAF), the National Rifle Association of America (NRA), and the Second Amendment Foundation (SAF) as parties to the brief, authored by attorneys Joseph G.S. Greenlee and Erin M. Erhardt of NRA’s Institute for Legislative Action.

An “analysis of the nation’s historical tradition of firearm regulation shows that there is no tradition that supports disarming peaceable persons” like Vincent, the brief argues. Indeed, it goes on, “[h]istorically, no individual was disarmed because the law he violated was classified as a felony. Moreover, upon completing their sentences, offenders not only had full access to their Second Amendment protected rights, but able-bodied males were required to keep and bear arms under the state and federal militia acts.”

“This powerful brief highlights why the Supreme Court should take up this case and settle this issue once and for all by holding that non-violent people cannot be disarmed for life,” said FPC President Brandon Combs. Read more

FPC Urges U.S. Senate to ‘Hold the Line,’ Pass Suppressor Reforms

WASHINGTON, D.C. – Today, Firearms Policy Coalition (FPC) urged the U.S. Senate to hold the line and pass President Trump’s “One Big Beautiful Bill Act” with the legislation’s current suppressor reforms intact.

Late last month, the House of Representatives passed the Act with three important provisions relating to suppressors, one removing the vital hearing protection devices from the extreme regulations of the National Firearms Act (NFA) and two others zeroing out the currently-required additional taxes for making or transferring the safety devices.

Notably, research by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) shows that “[t]he only potentially effective noise control method to reduce students’ or instructors’ noise exposure from gunfire is through the use of noise suppressors that can be attached to the end of the gun barrel.” The CDC’s conclusion has been affirmed by many other health experts, not to mention real-world experience. In fact, late last year, the American Academy of Otolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery endorsed “the use of firearm suppressors as an effective method of reducing the risk of hearing loss, especially when used in conjunction with conventional hearing protective measures.” Read more

Identifying Individual Birds at Your Feeders

This male Baltimore Oriole has a distinctive yellow-orange colored plumage that provides insights into its behavior and the fact that it is the only male Baltimore Oriole to visit Paul’s feeding station recently (photos by Paul Konrad).
A partial-albino Baltimore Oriole provided the best example of an individually marked bird and showed that it spent time visiting Paul’s feeding season in 2022 and 2023. Keep an eye out for any identifying plumage to help you study the behavior of individual birds in your yard.
Article and Photos by Paul Konrad

There are a lot of things you can learn about birds when you have a chance to recognize and observe individual birds that visit your feeding station and birdbath. Studying the behavior of individual birds can provide insights that take you to another level of enjoying birds. But too often, one male of a species looks like another, as do all the females – at least to humans. Every once in a while though, a bird comes around that shows some identifying characteristic, such as a male Baltimore Oriole that dropped by about 10 days ago that is colored yellow-orange rather than deep Baltimore orange.

It’s always something of a breakthrough when you have a bird that you can re-identify Read more

ZEISS Elevates Tripod Design With New Pro-Series Tripod Kits

With the introduction of their four new Pro-Series Tripod Kits, ZEISS has corrected everything you never liked about a tripod.

Created from the ground up, ZEISS Pro-Series Tripod Kits have addressed all the drawbacks inherent to existing tripods, achieving new levels of ruggedness, stability, rapid setup and user friendliness. For example, ZEISS’ single-point leg adjustment, found on the MAX-DUTY models, fully extends—or collapses—each leg with a quarter turn of an oversized, easy-to-grip twist lock. No more fumbling with multiple adjustments on each leg, which consumes time and makes simple leveling difficult.

Strength and reliability begin with those legs, built with ten layers of rigid carbon fiber connected to an aluminum framework. All Pro-Series Tripod Kits include Arca-Swiss mounting systems, the most widely accepted, most secure such system in the world. This allows rapid, reliable and easily interchangeable mounting of a myriad of devices, including the ZEISS tripod accessories.

Unusual in the industry is that ZEISS is marketing the Pro-Series as fully complete kits. “Most premium tripods are sold bare bones,” according to Kyle Brown, ZEISS director of marketing/product. “You pay a premium price, but then still must spend hundreds more on a ballhead and other components just for basic operation. We believe that when you purchase a top-tier tripod, your investment should deliver everything you need to get started as a complete package. That is why all Pro-Series tripods come as full kits.” Read more
