Your Immediate Action Required; National Right-to-Carry Reciprocity Act Going to House Floor Soon

Friday, November 04, 2011

We continue to report on the importance of H.R. 822—the “National Right-to-Carry Reciprocity Act of 2011” and to detail the truth about why the legislation is very good for gun owners. The bill will be heading to the U.S. House floor soon, and it is imperative that you contact your U.S. Representative IMMEDIATELY and urge him or her to support this critically important legislation.

A great deal of misguided, unfounded, and incorrect information has been circulated about the legislation, but the allegations are simply not true.

Simply put, H.R. 822 is a good bill and is good for gun owners. The bill will enable America’s millions of permit holders to exercise their right to self-defense while traveling outside their home states by requiring states to recognize each others' lawfully-issued carry permits, just as they recognize driver's licenses and carry permits held by armored car guards.

H.R. 822 does not create a federal licensing or registration system; does not establish a minimum federal standard for the carry permit; does not involve the federal bureaucracy in setting standards for carry permit; and it does not destroy or discourage the adoption of permitless carry systems such as those in Arizona, Alaska, Vermont and Wyoming.

Again, H.R. 822 will soon be on the House floor. Please IMMEDIATELY contact your member of Congress and urge him or her to support the earliest possible consideration of H.R. 822.

You can find contact information for your U.S. Representative by using the "Write Your Representatives" tool at www.NRAILA.org. You may also contact your Representative by phone at (202) 225-3121. Additionally, you may CLICK HERE TO EMAIL YOUR MEMBER OF CONGRESS.

H.R. 822 is a good bill for gun owners. Don’t listen to false claims. Read the bill yourself and READ OUR FACT SHEET to get more facts.

To listen to an NRANews interview about H.R. 822 with the bill’s sponsor Rep. Cliff Stearns (R-Fla.), please click here.

GALLUP POLL: SUPPORT FOR HANDGUN BAN HITS NEW LOW

The most recent Gallup Poll on American attitudes on gun control laws show that support for handgun control, which has steadily decreased for nearly thirty-five years, is at an all-time low. Only 1-in-4 now favor a ban on individual ownership of handguns, with the remaining opposed to any handgun ban. The poll also showed most Americans oppose reinstatement of the Clinton Semi-Auto Rifle Ban of 1994 and that a majority generally opposes any new restrictions on firearms ownership.

The full report can be found at ...

Firearms Interstate Commerce Reform Act Introduced in U.S. Senate

WASHINGTON - Recognizing the need to revamp outdated and restrictive gun laws, U.S Senators Mark Begich (D-Alaska) and Orrin Hatch (R-Utah) have introduced the Firearms Interstate Commerce Reform Act. The bill allows for the interstate sale of firearms and removes several antiquated and unnecessary restrictions imposed on interstate firearms transactions.

“Utahns and Americans everywhere have a right to bear arms, and this legislation ensures that onerous and outdated restrictions on everyone’s Second Amendment rights are no longer in place,” Sen. Hatch said. “By removing these restrictions, we can ensure that the constitutional freedoms we seek to protect remain intact.”

“Current laws restricting interstate commerce of firearms not only lag behind common sense and new technology, they are unfair and burdensome,” Sen. Begich said. “This legislation cleans up decades-old laws that are unnecessarily restricting the rights of Alaskans and other Americans to purchase and sell firearms.”

“The National Instant Criminal Background Check System has made many restrictions enacted in 1968 obsolete. It’s time to bring the law into the 21 st century. This important legislation will modernize and streamline interstate firearms transactions. The NRA and gun owners across the nation thank Senators Hatch and Begich for their leadership on this issue,” said Chris W. Cox, executive director of the NRA Institute for Legislative Action.

The Firearms Interstate Commerce Reform Act removes a number of restrictions from the Gun Control Act of 1968, which only allowed licensed dealers to sell rifles and shot guns to residents of a different state under a lengthy series of conditions. The restrictions were supposed to prevent buyers from evading “background checks” available at the time, which were mainly carried out through state laws requiring local police chiefs to issue firearms permits.

However, since 1998, all people buying firearms from dealers in the U.S. have been subject to computerized background checks under the FBI’s National Instant Criminal Background Check System; a system much more sophisticated and advanced than what was available in 1968. As a result, the complex system of state laws currently restricting the interstate commerce of firearms is outdated. In some cases, current law requires citizens to jump through so many hoops, it hinders or even prevents these sales.

The new law would allow:

Individuals to buy handguns, as well as rifles or shotguns, from licensed dealers in another state, subject to the background check requirement. The buyer and dealer would still have to meet in person and comply with the laws of both states;
Dealers to engage in their business at gun shows in other states, but would have to comply with the laws in the state where the gun show takes place;
The bill would reduce theft and loss of firearms during shipment between dealers by getting rid of a provision that says dealers may not transfer firearms to one another face to face, away from their business premises. Currently, dealers who agree on a sale are forced to return to their businesses and ship firearms to one another which involves some risk of theft or loss. The new law would allow an in-person exchange.

Similar legislation has been introduced in the House.

Management Plan for Colorado Public Lands Will Affect Target Shooting

Friday, September 30, 2011

The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) has released a resource management plan (RMP) for 500,000 acres managed by the agency’s Colorado River Valley Field Office located in Silt and within the counties of Eagle, Garfield, Pitkin, Roult, Mesa, and Rio Blanco. The planning area extends from Vail in the east to Parachute in the west and from Toponas in the north to Aspen in the south.

This RMP, which outlines four management alternatives, can be viewed by clicking here. A list showing how recreational shooting is treated in each of the alternatives can be found below.

Alternative A is the “no action” alternative. It explains current management and is used to compare the three new management alternatives. The RMP states that there are no BLM-approved target shooting sites, but approximately nine sites are historically known for target shooting.

The comment period is open until December 16 and BLM will announce in advance public meetings regarding this RMP. Comments can be e-mailed to co_crvrmp@blm.gov. For further information, you may contact John Russell, RMP Project Manager, at (970) 876-9025 or by e-mail at jdrussell@blm.gov Ask to be added to a mailing list to receive notices of the meetings.

If you enjoy target shooting on these lands, it is extremely important that you review the plan to determine how it will affect your future access for target shooting. This new RMP will set the course for public use management for years to come. Please attend at least one of the public meetings and take the time to e-mail comments to the BLM.

Alternative A:

Restrictions on use:
Firearm Use Restriction. Prohibit the discharge of firearms for recreational target shooting on the following BLM lands (Figure 2-31, Appendix A):
· Developed recreation sites
· Within 300 feet from the centerline of North Hardscrabble Access Road (Spring Creek) located in Township 5 South, Range 85 West, Track 80, Sixth Principal Meridian

Alternatives B and C:

Restrictions on use:
Firearm Use Restriction. Prohibit the discharge of firearms for recreational target shooting on the following BLM lands (Figure 2-32, Appendix A). The purpose of the restriction is to protect visitor safety by minimizing potential for accidental shootings (43 CFR 8364.1). Continue to permit hunting in accordance with CDOW regulations.
Same areas as Alternative A, plus the following:
· Developed recreation sites (existing and future)
· Silt Mesa on BLM lands south of the crest of the Grand Hogback in (Township 5 South, Range 91 West Township 5 South, Range 92 West Township 6 South, Range 91 West Township 6 South, Range 92 West, Sixth Principal Meridian)
· Battlement Creek within 0.25 mile of Garfield County Road 302 Township 7 South, Range 95 West Sections 14 and 15

Alternative D:

Restrictions on use:
Firearm Use Restriction. Prohibit the discharge of firearms for recreational target shooting on the following BLM lands (Figure 2-33, Appendix A). The purpose of the restriction is to protect visitor safety by minimizing potential for accidental shootings (43 CFR 8364.1). Continue to permit hunting in accordance with CDOW regulations.
Same areas as Alternative B, except not including the following:
· Silt Mesa on BLM lands south of the crest of the Grand Hogback in Township 5 South, Range 91 West; Township 5 South, Range 92 West; Township 6 South, Range 91 West; and Township 6 South, Range 92 West, Sixth Principal

COURT OF APPEALS RULES FELONS HAVE RIGHT TO BEAR ARMS FOR PROTECTION

The Colorado Court of Appeals has ruled that a person charged with Possession of a Weapon by Previous Offender (i.e. convicted felon) is entitled to raise the affirmative defense of his/her right to keep and bear arms for personal protection as set forth in the Colorado Constitution, Article II, Section 13.

In People v. DeWitt, the appellant, previously convicted of felonies in 1985 and 1988, was convicted of possession of a weapon by a previous offender when he was found to have been in possession of a handgun when police were called to an altercation involving DeWitt at a grocery store. At trial, DeWitt attempted to introduce a jury instruction stating he had an affirmative defense in the form of a constitutional right to carry a weapon to defend his person, home or property, but the trial court refused to give this instruction.

In reversing the trial court, the Court of Appeals stated that persons in Colorado are afforded a constitutional right to keep and bear arms for personal defense and that DeWitt had provided evidence at trial that he obtained and carried the handgun in question for personal defense.

In a footnote to the decision, the Court of Appeals stated that, since DeWitt did not make reference to nor raise any issues involving the Second Amendment to the U.S. Constitution, the Court’s decision addressed only Colorado law.

NRA-ILA: PREPARE FOR NEW OBAMA GUN CONTROL AGENDA

As we pass the six-month anniversary of the tragic Tucson shooting, multiple press reports indicate the Obama administration is planning to unveil new, but unspecified, gun control initiatives.

At a Thursday briefing, White House Press Secretary Jay Carney said, "As you know, the President directed the Attorney General to form working groups with key stakeholders to identify common-sense measures that would improve Americans' safety and security while fully respecting Second Amendment rights. That process is well underway at the Department of Justice with stakeholders on all sides working through these complex issues. And we expect to have some more specific announcements in the near future."

Carney provided no further details on the initiatives, but he isn't the only one saying something is in the works. According to a related article on NPR.org, U.S. Rep. Carolyn McCarthy (D-N.Y.) said, “I have spoken to the president. He is with me on [gun control], and it's just going to be when that opportunity comes forward that we're going to be able to go forward.” And longtime anti-gun activist Sarah Brady has said that in March, the president told her “I just want you to know that we are working on [gun control] ... We have to go through a few processes, but under the radar.”

Rest assured we'll report any significant developments in the weeks ahead.
