The Trump administration reversed a Biden-era ban on exporting guns to 36 high-risk countries, easing restrictions to boost U.S. gunmakers.
The Trump administration has reversed a Biden-era rule that restricted civilian firearm exports to 36 high-risk countries, including Afghanistan, China, Venezuela, and Jamaica, citing harm to U.S. gunmakers and unfair trade burdens.
The move, announced by the Commerce Department’s Bureau of Industry and Security, lifts licensing requirements and shortens export oversight, aiming to boost American manufacturing and global competitiveness.
Critics, including Rep. Gregory Meeks and the Government Accountability Office, warn the rollback could increase weapons diversion to criminals and cartels, especially in Latin America and the Caribbean, where most recovered handguns originate in the U.S.
The change reflects a broader policy shift to roll back previous regulations.
