Montana – The Montana Attorney General, Tim Fox, has released the requested opinion about the enforce-ability of the Missoula ordinance requiring government background checks for private transfers of firearms.
You can access the AG opinion below or at the link found here:

As expected, this AG Opinion declares the Missoula ordinance to be in conflict with controlling state law, and to be unenforceable.
From the ruling: ” A city or other local government entity with self-governing powers is prohibited by Montana state law from enforcing a local regulation or ordinance requiring background checks on firearm sales or transfers within its borders. “
Addressing the Missoula ordinance this way, and putting the wheels in motion for this AG Opinion, was something MSSA initiated over a year ago. We’re glad this planting finally bore the expected fruit. This is yet another example of what MSSA does for Montana gun owners.

I did not know that Mizzou had turned into a Bastion of left-wing idiocy!
When did the low-life, scum-sucking, left-wing Marxist bottom feeders take power there?
It is time, past time, two clean the scum from the floor and Mizzou!
It started back in the 60s when the left coast moved in. Never like Missoula, then or now., as it’s not representative of Montana.
Keep up the fight gentlemen. Nice work.
