The rules for YouTube gun content just got a lot stricter. The popular video platform will no longer allow videos that sell firearms or link to sites that sell firearms. Videos that demonstrate how to install certain accessories will be strictly prohibited. Videos that teach how to manufacture a firearm, ammunition and “high capacity” magazines (over 30 rounds) are also getting nixed.

“While we’ve long prohibited the sale of firearms, we recently notified creators of updates we will be making around content promoting the sale or manufacture of firearms and their accessories, specifically, items like ammunition, gatling triggers, and drop-in auto sears,” a YouTube spokesperson said in a statement, according to The Federalist.

Tim Harmsen from YouTube’s Military Arms Channel said he and other content creators were told the changes would be applied retroactively and they have 30 days to comply. That means content creators have to comb through years worth of work—in some cases—and remove any video found to be in violation of the new policy. Harmsen also said YouTube would issue three strikes before permanently banned from the platform.
