Firearm market shifts after assault weapons ban ends
After the federal assault weapons ban expires, states with remaining bans keep restrictions while others see modest demand. Dealers report lower prices for former banned models, modest traffic, and limited new markets beyond collectors. Gun shop owners warn the change will barely affect most shooters and police or military buyers.

Jackson judge shown search tapes
Santa Maria Calif Michael Jacksons attorneys Thursday showed a judge videotapes of the search of the singer Nevada Ranch to press their claim that law enforcement officials improperly took evidence. The defense seeks to bar items seized from Jacksons home and a private investigator from being admitted as evidence in the trial set for January 31. A sheriff testified investigators entered an office identified by a ranch employee as Jacksons. The judge struck that testimony as speculative. Jackson has pleaded not guilty to child molestation conspiracy and administering an intoxicating agent.
