Here’s How Gun Shops Can Transfer NFA Items
YOU ASKED, WE BUILT IT.
Since our “One Big Beautiful Lawsuit” win, people have been joining GOA in numbers we have never seen.
So much so, that our payment processor crashed.
We understand the interest, because thanks to the ruling, GOA members are now protected from the registration requirements of the National Firearms Act for the first time in 92 years.
Many calls and emails have asked the same question, so we are acting on it.
We set up a corporate membership.
We did this so firearms dealers (FFLs) can be protected by our win as well, and get those previously regulated items to their customers who want them.

When GOA wins an injunction, the relief usually covers our members.
Courts decide who counts as a member, and paying dues is one of the things they look at.
We have always treated Caliber Club supporters as GOA members and we will continue to do that, but the Caliber Club was never set up as a dues program for business entities.
Corporate membership fixes that.
If your business is a corporate member, its claim to coverage is a lot easier to prove.
Corporate membership will be renewed yearly. It also includes GOA membership for owners, officers, and employees of your business.
**If you are not an FFL yourself, tell your FFL.** The shop you buy from has the same questions you do, and this is built for them.
And before you go, one caution while all of this shakes out.
If you have specific questions about how the injunction applies to you or to your business, talk to a lawyer in your state.
We cannot give you legal advice about your own situation, and this is not the moment for anyone to be guessing.
We have asked the administration, ATF and DOJ for formal guidance for our members.
We have not gotten it.
We will keep pressing until we get answers, and you will hear from us the moment we do.
Are you signed up for a GOA membership?
Right now, this is one of the only ways to be protected against many of the provisions in the National Firearms Act.
GOA members will enjoy protection against the registration requirements for SBRs, SBSs, AOWs and Silencers – although keep in mind that several states have their own restrictions which are not affected by the federal court’s ruling.
If you’re already a GOA member, please consider making a donation, because we’re not going to stop fighting until the rest of the NFA is dead and gone.
But for now, secure your coverage from the registration requirements by becoming a member or donating at the link here!
FL VICTORY: Byron Donalds Wins Primary Election
Florida’s gun owners get to celebrate the Second Amendment wins that happened during last night’s primary elections.
Why?
Because GOA was the only gun rights organization involved in this election. Not just the only group to endorse. GOA was the only gun rights organization that showed up at all to fight for the Second Amendment, PERIOD. And our members and supporters made that fight possible—standing with Florida gun owners to defend their rights at the ballot box.
GOA made sure Florida’s Republican primary was a race that put all of the candidates’ Second Amendment records under a bright spotlight — and the results speak for themselves.
Byron Donalds won.
GOA endorsed Donalds because his record from Tallahassee to Congress stood clearly above the rest — and Florida gun owners will now reap the reward.
|
In 2018, Donalds stood against Republican leadership and voted NO on the Parkland gun-control bill. Other candidates in this race, like Paul Renner, voted YES, helping enact the Under-21 Firearm Purchase Ban and Florida’s Red Flag law. Jay Collins supported allowing law enforcement to bypass Florida’s firearm waiting period while leaving it in place for everyday Floridians. All while Byron Donalds has called for the outright repeal of Florida’s firearm waiting periods altogether. Donalds’ record speaks for itself: |
|
And he re-emphasized his commitment to the Second Amendment when GOA spoke with him. |
Calling for the full repeal of the Parkland gun-control law
Last night’s result drives it home: Florida gun owners won because GOA and its members refused to sit on the sidelines — and the candidate with the strongest Second Amendment record took the nomination.
This is a major victory for every Florida gun owner who demands no-compromise representation in Tallahassee.

Florida: Vote GOA on August 18
Florida gun owners, Election Day is TODAY, Tuesday, August 18 — and it’s time to VOTE.
The future of our Second Amendment rights in Florida will be shaped by who shows up to the polls in this primary election.
At the top of the ticket, Gun Owners of America is backing Byron Donalds for Governor of Florida.
When Florida passed the Parkland gun-control law, Byron Donalds voted NO.
And he isn’t stopping there.
Byron Donalds wants to repeal the Parkland gun-control law in its entirety.
That’s the kind of leadership Florida gun owners deserve: not politicians who simply promise to slow down attacks on the Second Amendment, but leaders willing to roll back gun control and restore our rights.
Byron has earned an A+ GOA rating and a 100% pro-gun record.
Vote Byron Donalds for Governor TODAY.
But the fight for our rights doesn’t stop at the top of the ticket.
From Congress to statewide and legislative races, Florida voters have an opportunity to elect a strong slate of GOA-endorsed candidates who will fight for the Second Amendment.
SEND SECOND AMENDMENT FIGHTERS TO CONGRESS
In Florida’s 1st Congressional District, vote Jimmy Patronis. Patronis has fought government tracking of lawful firearm purchases, defended constitutional and open carry, and introduced the Firearm Freedom Act to repeal Florida’s machine-gun ban.
In FL-14, vote Mike Beltran, who has earned an A+ GOA rating and a 100% pro-gun record standing up for the Second Amendment and Florida gun owners.
|
In FL-3, vote Kat Cammack. In FL-11, vote Carey Baker. In FL-13, vote Anna Paulina Luna. In FL-17, vote Greg Steube. |
|
And in Florida’s 19th Congressional District, vote Catalina Lauf, who has earned an “A” rating from GOA for her strong commitment to the Second Amendment. Lauf has pledged to fight federal gun-control measures, opposed red-flag laws that lack due process, and called for rolling back regulations that infringe on the rights of law-abiding gun owners. |
These congressional races matter. We need representatives in Washington who understand that the Second Amendment is not negotiable — and who won’t cave when our rights come under attack.
DEFEND THE SECOND AMENDMENT IN TALLAHASSEE
For Florida Chief Financial Officer, vote Blaise Ingoglia.
Ingoglia has defended the Second Amendment, voted against the Parkland gun-control legislation in 2018, and helped repeal Florida’s hurricane-related gun-sale ban in 2025.
And voters in Florida State House District 10 should support Marshall Rawson, a candidate who understands that the right to keep and bear arms protects something fundamental: your right to defend yourself and your family.
