Hey everyone, welcome back to Guns and Gadgets, the premiere source for Second Amendment News, and this is going to be an interesting one. This should be aggravating to the nation, and for this one, we’re heading back to New Jersey into the war zone of that state when it comes to the Second Amendment and the Constitution. That’s right, the state with some of the worst gun laws in the nation is now going after a Texas-based company for daring to sell wait for it, bump stocks. The same bump stocks that the US Supreme Court said were protected by the Second Amendment back in June of 2024 in the case called Cargill versus Garland.

Let’s break this down, because once again, the anti-gunners in New Jersey are trying to flex their unconstitutional muscles and expand their reach way beyond the borders of the state and beyond their constitutional authority. Before we dive in, I want to give a big shout out to Blackout Coffee, the sponsor for today’s video. We are unapologetically to a friendly and we’re American-owned, some of the best roasted coffee in the nation.

So here’s what’s going on. New Jersey Attorney General Matthew Plotkin, a dweeb who made his name by suing anything gun related. He’s back at it again. For instance, he sued a gun shop recently for having the balls to sell 1,000 rounds of 5.56 ammo to a person for cash without an ID. Because you know what? Freedom? Well, that same communist AG is now going after RW Arms, a Texas retailer, and accusing them of violating New Jersey’s state ban on bump stocks. Yeah, again, the same items that the United States Supreme Court said were protected by the Second Amendment.

Now here’s the kicker. RW Arms is based in Texas. They don’t operate in New Jersey, and allegedly they sold these items through their online store to residents of the Garden State. Plotkin, the AG, claims this violates New Jersey’s Consumer Fraud Act, and of course their state ban on bump stocks. States banning something that is not only legal on a national level, but protected by the Bill of Rights and verified as such by the highest court in the land. You have to ask yourselves, why the citizens of these states don’t do something more about it, right? By the consent of the governed.

If you don’t know that phrase, you need to read the founding documents. Now according to Plotkin, the company sold at least nine bump stocks to New Jersey residents after the state’s 2018 ban. He’s also claiming that RW Arms didn’t properly notify customers that these items were banned in New Jersey. Here’s a quote from Plotkin’s statement, quote, companies cannot violate our consumer protection laws and our firearm safety laws and get away with it. We will hold companies accountable when they put profits over public safety, end quote. Yeah, let’s pause right there because Plotkin’s idea of public safety is to strip law-abiding citizens of their constitutional rights, all while New Jersey’s crime continues to surge.

And as for that profit over safety line, that’s rich coming from a state that’s happy to fleece gun owners for every permit and background check under the sun. RW Arms is a Fort Worth based company that’s been in the firearms accessories business for years. They’ve gained notoriety after picking up the remaining inventory of bump stocks when ATF forced slide-fire solutions to shut down back in 2018. Now since then, RW Arms has largely operated within the bounds of the federal law. And let’s be clear, bump stocks are legal federally. While the ATF and Trump and Biden’s administration tried to treat them like machine guns, that interpretation has faced serious legal challenges, including one case and made it all the way to the Supreme Court, like I mentioned Cargill versus Garland.

Thank you, Michael Cargill. Now let’s not sugarcoat this. New Jersey’s lawsuit is a direct assault on federalism, interstate commerce, the Second Amendment, freedom, individual liberty, and anything else you can come up with that has to do with this country’s ability to be free. This is a state trying to apply its own laws to a business in another state just because a few of their residents placed online orders. If that sounds like dangerous precedent, that’s because it is. If we allow companies in different states to sue businesses that are operating within their parameters of their state and the federal law, it’s a dangerous precedent.

And it’s an attempt to sue companies out of business. It’s been going on for years. And if New Jersey can sue a Texas company for something that’s legal in Texas, and legal in the United States for that matter, what’s to stop California from suing our favorite ammo company in Florida? Or Illinois going after suppressor companies in Arizona? These are rogue states trying to criminalize behavior outside of their jurisdiction just because it doesn’t align with their gun control agenda. Let’s call it for what it is. It’s political theater and nothing else. Platkin’s up for reelection and trying to bolster his anti-gun credentials.

He’s made it his mission to target us, the law abiding gun owners, or gun stores, and gun related companies using every lawfare tactic in the book. Remember, this isn’t just his first rodeo. New Jersey has been, they’ve already passed laws trying to let residents sue out-of-state gun dealers. If a gun is used in a crime, it can be tracked back to them as the original purchaser. They’re actively weaponizing the court system to punish gun culture across this country. And that is why it’s vital that we stay informed, stay engaged, and don’t let these attacks go unanswered.

Make sure you support pro-2A legal groups actually fighting back in the courts against laws that are already passed. If you’re in a blue state, get vocal. If you’re in a red state, don’t get comfortable. Today, it’s RWRMs. Tomorrow could be your favorite dealer, or even you. And don’t forget to like, comment, and share this video, especially with folks who think online firearm sales are safe from blue state overreach. That illusion’s gone.
