The
U. S. Dept. of Justice just asserted that 18 USC 1715, from 1927, which
prohibits ordinary citizens from mailing handguns thru the U S Mail, is
in fact unconstitutional.
The
law, which is one of the earliest U S "gun control" measures, was
designed specifically to cut into the interstate movement of firearms,
possibly in violation of state and local firearms prohibitions.
This is part of the case of Shreve v U S Postal Service from July 2025, PA.
The
opinion directs the DOJ to stop prosecutions under this act and "urges"
the postal service to revise Publican 52, which gets into the nuts and
bolts of this issue.
