SAF Files Opening Brief with Supreme Court in ‘Assault Weapons’ Ban Lawsuit

Leave a comment

Following closely on the heels of celebrating its 52nd anniversary, the Second Amendment Foundation (SAF) and its partners have filed their opening brief with the U.S. Supreme Court in cases challenging assault weapons bans in Cook County, Illinois and Connecticut.

On June 30, the Supreme Court agreed to hear two SAF cases – Viramontes v. Cook County and Grant v. Higgins – challenging the prohibitions of many commonly owned rifles, including the ubiquitous AR-15, in Cook County, Ill., and Connecticut. While legal and broadly adopted by Americans all over the country for a litany of lawful purposes – including self-defense – a minority of states have sought to outright ban the possession of these types of firearms. The question presented in Viramontes and Grant is whether those states may categorically ban a widely defined class of the most commonly possessed firearms in the country. SAF’s opening brief explains precisely why the Second Amendment, and well-established Supreme Court caselaw, have already concluded that no, they may not. Read more

Ammunition Depot Launches AmmoVault, a New Way to Buy, Store and Ship Ammunition Over Time

Leave a comment

Ammunition Depot, one of the largest online retailers and suppliers of ammunition in the United States, today announced the launch of AmmoVault, a new ammunition reserve and storage service that lets shooters purchase ammunition over time, have it securely stored and request shipment when they are ready.

Periodic demand surges can quickly tighten ammunition availability, reduce selection and push prices higher. AmmoVault gives shooters a way to build a real ammunition reserve during normal market conditions, so they are not starting from zero when demand spikes.

Customers can open a free AmmoVault account, choose what they shoot, set a budget and purchase schedule and begin with as little as $5. They can build their reserve automatically through a recurring subscription or add ammunition through one-time purchases whenever they choose. Read more

Tree Spider’s Redesigned Speed Pro and Micro-LT Harnesses Are Up to 30% Lighter

Leave a comment

MUSKEGON, MI – Every hunter checks their firearm or bow before heading to the stand. Fewer check their harness. That gap in thinking is exactly what’s driving one of the deadliest trends in the deer woods.

Falls from treestands have quietly overtaken gunshot wounds as the leading cause of injury and death among deer hunters in North America. Estimates widely cited in the hunting-safety community — and often traced to the Treestand Manufacturers Association — put the toll at 30 to 50 hunters killed or permanently disabled by falls every year in the U.S., with thousands more injured badly enough to need medical attention. And by most tracking, roughly 95% of those serious injuries happen to hunters who weren’t wearing a harness at all.

Here’s the part that should stop every hunter in their boots: Most of those falls don’t happen while sitting still. They happen during the climb — the ascent or the descent — the exact moments a harness is doing its most important work. Read more

SCI Finger Lakes, NY Chapter Offers Wild Game Processing Opportunities for Student Hunters

Leave a comment

Following Cornell University’s recent decision to prohibit the processing of wild game animals in community kitchens, the Finger Lakes Chapter of Safari Club International (SCI) is reaffirming its commitment to helping student hunters access safe, sanitary, and appropriate facilities for processing legally harvested game.

Student hunters interested in taking advantage of these opportunities should contact Kuneytown Sportsmen’s Club at 315-568-9710. Referrals to other local sportsmen’s clubs with full kitchens are also planned.

The Cornell policy change stems from a 2025 incident in which students processed a legally harvested black bear in a residence hall kitchen after alternative options became unavailable. University officials later clarified that the students had not violated existing hunting rules or university rules at the time, but subsequently updated housing policies to prohibit the processing of wild game in communal kitchens.

The SCI Finger Lakes Chapter believes the incident highlights an important need within the hunting community: ensuring that students who hunt legally and ethically have access to suitable locations where harvested game can be handled safely and responsibly.

“Hunting is about conservation, responsibility, and respect for wildlife,” said SCI Finger Lakes President and Outdoors Tomorrow Foundation Executive Director Keith Tidball. “When students participate in hunting traditions, they deserve to have access to proper facilities and knowledgeable mentors who can help them process their harvest safely and correctly. The Finger Lakes Chapter is committed to being part of that solution.”

Tidball did take issue with some of the reports he felt villainized the hunters despite their operating entirely within the law, saying he was saddened that the tone of the piece seemed to implicitly, if not explicitly, shame the students for doing something perfectly legal and natural.

“The sort of sleuthing regarding the legality of their actions, and the permissibility of processing fish or game on Cornell campus in particular contributes to the ‘othering’ of hunters and anglers and those that prefer to live close to nature and their ancient humanness, suspiciously regarding them instead of celebrating their efforts to escape the increasing disconnect from nature impacting society,” Tidball wrote in a Facebook post he said was also sent to local newspaper editors.
