I’ve heard nothing about this, is this really a possibility?
Flyover states need to get off the federal teet and reassert some autonomy.

Its worked for gay marriage and marijuana... no reason that it shouldn't be applied to something actually protected by the constitution.

We tried it in Kansas.
A personal firearm, a firearm accessory or ammunition that is owned or manufactured commercially or privately in Kansas and that remains within the borders of Kansas is not subject to any federal law, treaty, federal regulation, or federal executive action, including any federal firearm or ammunition registration program, under the authority of congress to regulate interstate commerce. It is declared by the legislature that those items have not traveled in interstate commerce. This section applies to a firearm, a firearm accessory or ammunition that is owned or manufactured in the state of Kansas.
They even tried to give it some teeth:
It is unlawful for any official, agent or employee of the government of the United States, or employee of a corporation providing services to the government of the United States to enforce or attempt to enforce any act, law, treaty, order, rule or regulation of the government of the United States upon a firearm, a firearm accessory, or ammunition that is owned or manufactured commercially or privately in the state of Kansas and that remains within the borders of Kansas. Violation of this section is a severity level 10 nonperson felony
None of it mattered. Some folks made some suppressors, posted about it on social media, and promptly got nailed by the feds.

Sure, you can flaunt the cultivation, sale and consumption of pot in a number of states, but if you try this with guns, you WILL get nailed to the wall by feds.

Some laws are more equal than others...

I thought one of the big states out west tried this already.
Anyway, it's a bill proposed in the Senate. It's not law yet.
