I have some issues with this article. But, as long as the Senate honors their Constitutional oath, legislation is a long way off. So, don't destroy your bump stock yet. They should repeal the Hughes Amendment, also, but I'm not going to hold my breath on that one.

I've renewed my GOA membership and gave a small donation. I haven't seen anything that would indicate that the NRA has thrown its weight behind it. Is the NFOA planning on financial support for the GOA in this endeavor? But I did read an article that indicated that the NRA's strategy was to squash proposed legislation so that it would get regulatory action which the article claimed that it would be easier to challenge the regulatory action. If so, if the regulatory action is defeated, the ball would probably, and quite likely, end up back in Congress for legislative action - most likely in the House. This issue could drag on for a few years. But, who knows?

Good question. I will add it to our agenda for the next Board Meeting. An important note to add, supporting GOA's efforts would be something pursued only with the support/direction of membership

I'd be all for supporting any organization that's actively opposing gun control. Unfortunately, and as a life member it pains me to say this, that doesn't include the NRA anymore.

My 2 cents, while I like the idea of supporting the GOA’s efforts and encourage everyone to individually do so I do not think the NFOA should as an organization be financially involved. The NFOA is an affiliate of the Citizens Committee to Keep and Bear Arms, which we provide no financial support to. Also the SAF has partnered with the NFOA and completely financially backed cases with us, with the NFOA not covering any of those costs (but encouraging member support for both of these organizations).
