This is still a significant win.

This doesn’t mean state legal machine guns though. State laws will still exist so you’d still do Nebraska time if you had one.

What it does mean is if Biden passes an AWB, local police will not escalate it to the ATF if you’re caught with one. This is actually where the majority of federal gun charges originate from. If the NSP caught you with a non federally compliant firearm that didn’t violate a Nebraska law, nothing happens now. Without it, the NSP would arrest you and hand you off to the ATF.

Any idea if the crazy pistol brace point system gets put into effect by the FATF,
would this sanctuary state status prohibit Nebraska law enforcement from reporting
someone to the feds if they had an unregistered braced pistol ?

Asking for a friend.

It’d be risky. Nebraska has its own NFA SBR law that requires compliance with federal law for legality.

Thanks. I was unaware NE had that law on the books.

Rick, Asking about LB194 here. 2A Preservation Act by Sen. Halloran.

Wondering if the above mentioned Law would mean that State and local
law enforcement would still be required to enforce new rulings by the ATF
in spite of this bill being passed (Pistol Braces etc.)?

Wouldn't it be necessary to strike the above law for LB194 to serve it's intended
purpose?

I emailed requesting that it be passed out of committee but wonder if it would
be of any practical benefit for us ?

Thanks.

@Rick_NE

I stopped by Senators Halloran's office when I went down to testify against LB482 and asked them to look into this.

I also visited with Trish from NFOA. She will ask their attorney to look into it.

Thanks again
