We protect our community not because we have chosen this role, but because it is inseparable from who we are.

Alex Pretti understood the threat and rose to meet it. His example shines bright. His fearlessness must become our own.

We stand with the people of Minnesota.
We Keep us Safe.

New reporting from WaPo has foreshadowed an attack on trans rights by the ATF - we've known that its been coming for months.

New blog on changes to the 4473, why they matter, and why you probably shouldn't put off exercising your right to self defense.

You love to see it. 😍

That said we've also talked with FFL's about this and have thoughts about how to best advise on the situation.

We'd be interested in getting your feelings/opinions on some things - we've sent you a dm here before with signal contact info, if interested.

We've had information that this change to the 4473 was coming for over a month now from insiders - unfortunately every attempt we've made to connect with legal professionals to consult with on further guidance has led nowhere.

When they demand our silence is exactly when we must be loudest.
2026 will test that - for second amendment rights and for trans existence itself.
We're ready.

We appreciate your support!

We'd also like to note that the NY guide is likely the next which will be released. It's somewhere around halfway-done and as you guessed, its been leagues more work than any other state.

Barring any complications, it should be up before the end of the year.

Figuring out how to update your carry permit after a name change shouldn't require a law degree or wading through hostile forums.
