HR 45

[Farman]

Has anyone heard anything new about this bill. As far as I could find it's still in committee. But I got a call from NRA yesterday looking for more donations to fight this bill. What's up?

If you don't see the threats out there from any number of fronts, then you must have you whole body buried in the sand.

FYI - I'm a card carrying member - there are many threats on the table more immediate than this one - maybe NRA is just preparing in advance here, but it seems to me their primary focus is fundrai$ing - JMO
