The U.S. is making it easier to sell guns online.

The U.S. administration, led by President Trump, has proposed changes to regulations allowing direct home delivery of firearms purchased online. This change could significantly boost online firearm sales, potentially benefiting Donald Trump Jr., who owns shares in GrabAGun, an online firearms retailer often referred to as 'Amazon of guns.' The proposal would allow licensed sellers to deliver firearms directly to customers within the same state after an online identity check and a seven-day waiting period. Critics argue this poses risks to public safety and threatens traditional brick-and-mortar gun stores. Trump Jr.'s spokesperson denied any involvement in the proposal, while GrabAGun's CEO stated neither he nor Trump Jr. were aware of the plan. The ATF estimates half of all firearm buyers—nearly 3.3 million people annually—could eventually opt for home delivery.
