[I]t is clearly stated “Firearms Freedom Act “ supporters have never planned to test these laws in criminal cases, and no one who puts himself in that situation should expect support from the NRA.
It was my understanding that Montana had planned from the gitgo to take the FFA to feral court after passage. I presume their intention would be to give current and prospective manufacturers legal cover to begin business. At least in one instance I can understand the NRA's reticence though: If the States are successful in implementing FFA, it would probably leave the NRA with a much smaller national following. The States will have accomplished what the NRA could never hope to do -- or they would have done it a long time ago...

The NRA is taking a pass on a single lawsuit. How many dozens of lawsuits does the NRA have to be involved with before you notice?
There is no longer a gun ban in Morton Grove, Illinois. Thank you, NRA.
