On July 15, 2025, the Firearms Policy Coalition (FPC) filed a motion for summary judgment in a lawsuit challenging federal laws that prohibit licensed firearm dealers from selling handguns to out-of-state buyers. The FPC argues that the ban is unconstitutional under Supreme Court precedents, which require modern firearm regulations to align with the Second Amendments text and historical context. The lawsuit, announced via an X post, seeks to allow individuals to purchase handguns across state lines, a practice currently restricted to in-state transactions. FPC President Brandon Combs emphasized the cases potential to dismantle an outdated restriction, citing their recent success in overturning Californias non-resident carry ban.
