Put it in the mail.
Bondi and the DoJ just today declared that 18USC 1715 - the prohibition on mailing handguns and other “concealable firearms” is unConstitutional per Bruen and thus unenforceable, and USPS is therefore directed to change their firearms regulations. See here: https://www.justice.gov/olc/media/1423701/dl To whit: Section 1715 regulates the ability to transport, receive, and maintain constitutionally protected firearms, which burdens the right protected by the Second Amendment. But section 1715’s purpose and burden find no analogue in this Nation’s history and tradition of firearm regulation. See Bruen, 142 S. Ct. at 2129–30. We therefore conclude that the statute violates the Second Amendment insofar as it burdens the rights of law- abiding citizens to ship and receive arms in common use for lawful pur- poses. Accordingly, the Executive Branch may not, consistent with the Constitution, enforce section 1715 with respect to constitutionally pro- tected firearms, and the Postal Service should modify its regulations to conform with the scope of the Second Amendment as described in this opinion. T. ELLIOT GAISER Assistant Attorney General Office of Legal Counsel Folks, this is huge.
