Hello everyone and welcome back to This Week in Guns, brought to you by Patriot Patch Company, VZ Grips, MAF Corporation, and FFL Payments. This show offers commentary on the latest firearms industry news, information and buzz. I’m your host Matthew Larosiere and I’m joined by the ratman.



 



Key Points:

- The Mexican government is determined to somehow extract rent from American gun companies, but is failing in increasingly entertaining ways..

- The 4th Circuit upheld Maryland's assault weapons ban, demonstrating the ongoing legal battle over a false distinction between civilian and military firearms.

- Polymer80 has quietly shut down, highlighting the significant pressures and challenges faced by firearm-related businesses, including legal battles and regulatory changes.
