President Donald Trump just delivered a long-overdue message to the global gun confiscation cartel: America is not taking orders from the United Nations.
In a major move for national sovereignty and Second Amendment freedom, the Trump administration has formally withdrawn the United States from the United Nations Register of Conventional Arms (UNROCA), a UN-run reporting system that gun rights advocates have warned for years is part of the international bureaucracy’s long game to pressure nations into “standardized” gun restrictions.
What Is the UN Register of Conventional Arms?
UNROCA is a so-called “voluntary” United Nations registry where participating countries report information about weapons transfers, including categories of conventional arms and, in many cases, small arms and light weapons.
Supporters claim it promotes “transparency.”
But gun owners know how this game works.
Transparency is always the excuse and control is always the goal. Because once international bureaucrats start collecting data, they don’t stop at tracking tanks and fighter jets.
The same institutions pushing global disarmament narratives always work their way down to the civilian level, using “international norms” as the wedge to attack private gun ownership.
Why It’s Bad for America
UNROCA is not just paperwork. It’s a pipeline. A pipeline for global elites to normalize the idea that firearms ownership should be regulated, monitored, and eventually restricted under the banner of “international cooperation.”
That is exactly why gun rights groups have been sounding the alarm for years about the broader UN infrastructure behind these schemes, including the infamous UN Arms Trade Treaty.
The gun confiscation cartel has never hidden what it wants: fewer guns, more restrictions, and ultimately a world where self-defense is a privilege reserved for the government and the politically connected.
NAGR Has Led This Fight for Over a Decade
For more than a decade, the National Association for Gun Rights (NAGR), Texas Gun Rights’ national affiliate, has been leading the charge to remove the United States from all UN involvement tied to international gun control frameworks, especially the UN’s ATT.
While other organizations played nice, issued press releases, and hoped the problem would go away, NAGR went straight into the lion’s den.
NAGR President Dudley Brown has now testified before the United Nations multiple times overseas in recent years, confronting global disarmament activists directly and warning that Americans will never surrender their God-given right to keep and bear arms to foreign bureaucrats.
NAGR’s message has been consistent: the UN has no authority over American freedom, and no treaty, registry, or “agreement” should ever be allowed to become a backdoor attack on the Second Amendment.
Chris McNutt: “Texas Won’t Bow to Global Gun Grabbers”
Texas Gun Rights President Chris McNutt praised Trump’s withdrawal as a major step in cutting off international influence over American gun policy.
“The United Nations is not our government, and they have no business tracking, regulating, or influencing anything related to firearms in the United States,” McNutt said. “This UN registry scheme was never about ‘transparency.’ It was about control. Texans aren’t going to bow to global gun grabbers, and we sure as hell aren’t going to let foreign bureaucrats write the rules for our rights.”
McNutt added that gun owners must stay alert, because the gun confiscation cartel never stops pushing, even when they lose.
“They will rebrand it, rename it, and try again,” he said. “The only way we win is by staying aggressive, staying organized, and refusing to compromise one inch.”
