New Details Leaked on Biden Administration’s Upcoming Background Check Power Grab
(NRA-ILA) – Last week, we (NRA) reported on the Biden Administration’s treacherous move to defund scholastic archery, hunting, and marksmanship programs under an obscure provision of the Orwellian Bipartisan Safer Communities Act (BSCA).

Nevertheless, it has remained unclear where the lines are to be drawn.
Now, the New York Times is reporting that…
