Virginia is on the verge of a major shift in gun laws, and if you’re a gun owner, it’s not a small one.

Right now, 10 gun control bills are sitting on Gov. Abigail Spanberger’s desk, and she has until April 13 to sign them, veto them, or let them become law by default. Based on the current political landscape, most expect these bills to be signed.

If that happens, Virginia will go from relatively gun-friendly to one of the more restrictive states in the country.

Here’s what’s in the stack:

• Semi-auto firearm and magazine bans (SB749/HB217)
Targets many commonly owned rifles, pistols, and shotguns, bans magazines over 15 rounds, and restricts possession for adults under 21.

• Public carry restrictions (SB727/HB1524)
Criminalizes carrying many common fi****ms in public places—even for otherwise lawful gun owners. Violations can mean up to 12 months in jail.

• Under-21 possession ban (SB643/HB1525)
Would apply even to young adults who already legally own fi****ms.

• Reciprocity changes (SB115)
Virginia could stop recognizing out-of-state carry permits, which would likely trigger other states to stop recognizing Virginia permits in return.

• Expanded training mandates (HB 916)
Adds new requirements for concealed carry classes and removes NRA and USCCA courses from qualifying.

• Firearm storage and vehicle laws (SB496/HB110)
Creates new rules for how fi****ms can be stored in vehicles.

• “Ghost gun” ban (SB323/HB40)
Makes possession of unserialized fi****ms a felony—punishable by up to 10 years.

• Gun industry liability laws (SB27/HB21)
Opens the door to lawsuits against manufacturers and retailers for how products are marketed and sold.

• Expanded “gun-free zones” (SB272/HB626 & SB173/HB229)
Applies to public buildings, campuses, and certain medical facilities.

These laws target law-abiding citizens and commonly owned fi****ms, while doing little to address criminal behavior.

These aren’t small tweaks. This is a system-level change:

• Who can own fi****ms
• What types are allowed
• Where you can carry
• Whether your permit is recognized
• How the industry itself is allowed to operate

For gun owners in Virginia, the next few weeks matter.

Because once these laws are signed, the fight doesn’t end; it moves to the courts.

Brandishing a pistol to “scare” someone will land you in jail! Killing your child over an argument about alcohol…..speechless!

A 28-year-old Texas woman, Tabatha Jones, has died after she was allegedly shot by her mother, 49-year-old Shanika Battle, in an argument about alcohol, according to an arrest affidavit from the Dallas Police Department viewed by PEOPLE.
