--- Quote ---"Sometimes the most effective gun rights activists are the ones who work quietly and don’t attract a lot of attention. Network Affiliated Instructor Chris Zeeb (http://www.neccwtraining.com) is a good example.

 Three years ago, disheartened by gun rights compromises at the Nebraska Legislature, he established a new gun owners group from nothing more than an idea. We spoke with Zeeb at a convention in January, and he graciously shared his story, which should prove inspirational
for anyone who is dissatisfied with the status quo where they live."

--- Quote ---Zeeb: There was a senator who introduced an assault weapons ban in Nebraska, to ban guns based on appearance. I testified at the public hearing, and the large national
organization for firearms rights walked in to that hearing and they did not oppose that bill! They went neutral on the assault weapons ban bill. I was just dumbfounded. I
thought, “You guys are supposed to be representing gun owners? Whom in Nebraska did you talk to that wants this law? You know what? That’s it!”

Nebraska's gun owners have no idea how much Chris has done for them.  Same goes for all the other NFOA leaders who've put in so much time bending ears and working the Legislature.  Without them we would be in a much worse position than we are today.

Chris Z:
Thanks go to Tim Tyrell for having the vision of the organization....... I just got the fire lit under me after Tim moved away!!!


Damn what a horrible picture they used of me....
