Gun rights activists are on a political roll with four recent wins

Second Amendment advocates are on a bit of a political roll recently, with four major victories in just one week.

House Speaker Paul Ryan pulled an anti-gun healthcare proposal from consideration; the governor of North Dakota signed a bill letting residents carry a firearm without a permit; New Mexico lawmakers defeated a gun registry bill and the Supreme Court ruled for a defendant whom a gun rights group had supported.

“It gives us a lot of hope,” Erich Pratt, executive director of Gun Owners of America, said to Fox News. “We just spent the past eight years on the defensive. Now we are playing offensive ball.”

The gun industry is falling rapidly though. As strange as it sounds Obama was the best thing for them

Well, I am still waiting on that promise of the feds to implement some pro gun legislation, I believe the one guy said within 100 days of getting elected??? We are either near that or pasted that...

8:01 I just bought another last week. I wonder where Gov. Hogan is, that's right I forgot he's a RINO.

Notice that no good piece of RINO crap Paul Ryan didn't pull that gun stuff out of his health care bill until after he came under serious scrutiny. When that piece of crap comes up for reelection in Wisconsin please support anyone who challenges him for the Republican nomination, he has got to go.
