You don't hear that other than a few Fudd hold-outs and poseurs presenting to be gun-owners now. SHOT Show is a big reflection of this. You used to not see many black rifle booths, everything was Fuddville and Real Tree camo, jerkey, knives, custom wood stocks, blue steel and walnut.
Now those booths are looked at strangely as people walk by.
I remember the American Riflemen cover from one of the issues in 1989, with all the AR15s, AKs, HKs, etc. on the front as examples of what had been banned by CA legislature, with a warning that this could happen to the Nation now. They were right.
I did my NRA certs much later, nowhere near when my grandfather was alive.
I'm in for the 24th.
Also an NRA member.
If the Libs hate it so much, then they must be doing a lot of good.
I don't read all of their posts but I do support what they (I mean, WE) do and stand for.
