Legislation To Protect Hunting On Public Lands Gains Momentum – Nearing 40 Sponsors

During this Memorial Day weekend, reflect on those special opportunities that are available in the United States – particularly your opportunities to hunt on America’s public lands. Hunting opportunities that have existed for our parents, grandparents and those who preceded them must be protected for future generations. This is our Hunting Heritage that we pass to the next sportsmen and women.  It is this heritage that SCI is protecting in its endorsement of legislation called ...

NEWTOWN, Conn. -- The U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia today dismissed a lawsuit brought by the radical anti-hunting Center for Biological Diversity and six other groups demanding the Environmental Protection Agency ban traditional ammunition containing lead components.

     Traditional ammunition represents 95 percent of the U.S. market and is the staple ammunition for target shooters, hunters and law enforcement, with more than 10 billion rounds sold annually.

55 of Colorado's 62 County Sheriffs File A Lawsuit To Block Recently Passed Anti-Gun State Legislation

Weld County, Colorado - In the wake of the tragedy in Aurora, Colorado passed some of the strictest gun control measures in the country.

     But in recent months, an overwhelming 55 of the state's 62 county sheriffs have joined a lawsuit aiming to block the measures.

     "These bills do absolutely nothing to make Colorado ...

We need more of this...  Especially appropriate for the woman who shot her boyfriend twice, stabbed him 27 times and slit his throat...  Oh the horror...  the horror... 

I'm just sayin'...

If you can get arrested for hunting or fishing without a license, but not for being in the country illegally ...you might live in a country founded by geniuses but run by idiots.

If you have to get your parents’ permission to go on a field trip or take an aspirin in school, but not to get an abortion ... you might live in a country founded by geniuses but run by idiots.

If the only school curriculum allowed to explain how we got here is evolution, but the government stops a $15 million construction project to keep a rare spider from evolving to extinction ... you might live in a country founded by geniuses but run by ...

Hillary Clinton testimony during the Benghazi hearings:  "What difference does it make how these men died?!" 

      The stunning part of this Benghazi story is that Tyrone Woods and Glen Doherty killed 60 of the attacking force.  Once the compound was overrun, the attackers were incensed to discover that just two men had inflicted so much death and destruction.

     The news has been full of the attacks on our embassies throughout the Muslim world, and in particular, the deaths of Ambassador Chris Stevens and three others in Benghazi, Libya.

The Good Old Days of the firearms industry....  alas! 

NEWTOWN, Conn. -- The National Shooting Sports Foundation (NSSF), the trade association for the firearms industry, has joined with 54 county sheriffs, Magpul Industries, the Colorado Outfitters Association, several firearms retailers, disabled individuals and other parties in a federal lawsuit brought today in the United States District Court for the District of Colorado in what is a broad-based challenge to Colorado's recently enacted gun-control laws.

     Last Friday the California Dept. of Justice suddenly announced that the technology to microstamp firearms is now unencumbered by patents. As a result, a law passed in 2007 becomes effective immediately. Every newly introduced model of semiautomatic handgun in the state now must have a microstamped firing pin that, theoretically, would accurately and reliably engrave a firearm's identification information on each cartridge casing fired from the pistol. The law was signed by Gov. Schwarzenegger in 2007 but never implemented because the technology was, and remains, patented. NSSF is exploring ...

They don't call it the "Safety" model for nothin'!
