I'm Al, a U.S. military veteran and Virginia gun owner. I built Mason's Vault because navigating Virginia's sweeping 2026 gun law changes — SB 749, HB 40, NFA trusts — was genuinely complicated, and the information was scattered and hard to find. Mason's Vault is a free platform that helps Virginia gun owners and gun owners across the country track firearm laws by state, document pre-ban ownership, and manage NFA trusts. No ads. No subscriptions. Just useful information. Tips help cover hosting, domain costs, and the time it takes to keep the site current as legislation changes as well as future mobile app development. Named for George Mason of Gunston Hall, Fairfax County, Virginia — father of the Second Amendment.
