Did the Supreme Court Just Ignore California Gun Shows???

The Supreme Court of the United States just denied cert in BNL Productions v. Newsom, the challenge to California's controversial gun show bans. But does that mean the fight is over? Not even close.

In this episode, we bring on CRPA President and constitutional attorney Chuck Michel to unpack what this denial actually means, the potential impact of the Smith & Wesson v. Mexico case already on the SCOTUS docket, and what future challenges to the California gun show ban may look like.

We also explore:

The difference between commercial and political speech under the First Amendment

Why this issue is about more than gun sales — it’s about the survival of gun culture

The evolving Second Amendment litigation landscape post-Bruen

And how CRPA is still fighting back in court despite this latest development

🛑 California’s war on gun shows is part of a broader push to dismantle lawful gun ownership culture. Stay informed. Stay involved.
