The Pentagon is using military medical and personnel records to identify service members with current or past diagnoses of gender dysphoria as it moves to separate transgender troops under the Trump administration’s ban, according to a Federal News Network investigation published Monday. The effort has led commanders across the military to receive notices identifying troops in their units who may fall under the policy and directing them to begin the separation process, per the report. The outlet cited multiple service members, advocates and internal military documents. An internal Air Force email obtained by Federal News Network said the Office of…

Timothy Gick admits he wasn’t excited about helping with Toys for Tots in 2022. The Marine reservist already had plenty to do while activated in the San Francisco Bay Area, and a trip to the toy warehouse meant more work. Once he got there, though, he began looking through the donations and wondering what he might make for kids himself. “I hadn’t been around toys in years,” Gick told Military.com. The result was Mission Match, a game product line from his company Adigeni LLC, under the brand Not A Very Good Teacher. The fitness-focused project, Mission Match: Hyperion, was tested…

The legality of so-called assault weapons is sitting in the scales of justice with the U.S. Supreme Court. An amicus shoots through the “dangerous and unusual” defense of bans. Viramontes v. Cook County, consolidated with Grant v. Higgins, are cases challenging local and state prohibitions respectively on commonly owned semi-automatic firearms. The cases will likely put an end to categorical bans on so-called assault weapons. 46 amicus briefs have been filed in these cases. One brief submitted by the Hawaii Rifle Association takes a novel approach to language used in Heller.The 79-page brief authored by…

Ask anyone the kinds of things that preppers stockpile and you’ll hear the same things every time: food, water, flashlights, batteries, first aid kits, etc. These things are the foundation of any serious prepper plan, and for good reason. They’re things that will keep you alive when the power goes out or the store shelves empty. But there’s another category of gear that a lot of experienced preppers rarely bring up in conversation. These are things that don’t make it into the typical beginner checklists, not because they’re useless, but because they sit in a legal gray area or carry…

Straw buys are overhyped as a source of guns, at least in my opinion, but they’re still an issue. Even if you dislike the laws that lead to such things, the truth is that it’s illegal, and it’s going to be leveraged for more gun control at every opportunity. Yes, even if there’s no interest in actually enforcing the laws in the first place. Which is why the National Shooting Sports Foundation is teaming up with the ATF and the Department of Justice.NSSF®, The Firearm Industry Trade Association, together with the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco,…

The U.S. military has disabled advertising trackers on its phones and computers that can reveal a service member’s location, according to letters the armed services sent to Congress. Those disclosures, reported by Reuters and released Friday by Sen. Ron Wyden (D-Ore.), show that most mobile-device protections were put in place only this year. The Air Force said it disabled advertising identifiers on its computers and phones about two months ago. U.S. Special Operations Command said it had “recently” disabled them on its Windows devices. The Army said it had blocked the identifiers on Windows computers “since before 2021” but had…
