Here's the requested comment we provided, I guess it didn't make the cut. 🤷‍♀️

"MOC strongly supports the U.S. Postal Service’s proposed rule to allow the mailing of lawful handguns. For nearly a century, an outdated 1927 federal ban treated handguns differently from long guns despite both being constitutionally protected arms. The Department of Justice correctly determined that this restriction violates the Second Amendment, and USPS is right to conform its rules accordingly.

Responsible Michigan gun owners already ship fi****ms legally through private carriers under strict conditions (unloaded, securely packaged, tracked with signature confirmation, and fully compliant with federal and state law). Adding USPS as an option simply expands access for law-abiding citizens without creating new loopholes. Criminals do not obey mailing regulations or background-check requirements, they obtain guns through illegal channels regardless. Attorney General Nessel’s opposition reflects the same anti-gun politics that routinely burdens legal firearm owners in Michigan while doing nothing to stop actual crime."

Concealable handguns have been banned from being mailed unless they come from licensed dealers since 1927.

Michigan Open Carry, Inc, by way of President Casey Armitage, Vice President Dean Greenblatt, and Legislative Director Tom Lambert, provided testimony at yesterday's Judiciary Committee Hearing in support of HB 4138, 4139, and 4140 to repeal Michigan's "Red Flag Laws."

"Lambert told The Midwesterner after the meeting that “it’s only a matter of time until this law either collapses under its own weight or it’s struck down by the courts.""

Michigan’s Extreme Risk Protection Orders violate due process, undermine constitutional rights, and sweep up law-abiding citizens without adequate safeguards, opponents told lawmakers Wednesday. Testimony in support of repeal featured legislators, gun rights advocates, and attorneys who argued the...

"The moment to act and be heard is now. On Wednesday at 10:30 a.m., the House Judiciary Committee will hold a hearing on these bills. Gun owners, civil liberties advocates, and concerned citizens should attend and provide testimony in support of Red Flag Repeal. Your voice can help protect our rights for generations to come."

Michigan's Extreme Risk Protection Order laws represent a dangerous overreach that undermines fundamental constitutional protections.
