Scholastic Shooting Sports Foundation

Columbia, MO --(Ammoland.com)- The Scholastic Shooting Sports

Foundation (SSSF) announced today that Larry and Brenda Potterfield,

founders and owners of MidwayUSA, donated $1.6 Million Dollars to the

Scholastic Shooting Sports Foundation (SSSF) and Scholastic Clay

Target Program (SCTP).

The donation was presented to the SSSF Executive Director, Russ

Arnold, and members of the SSSF Board on October 21st in Columbia,

MO at the MidwayUSA Corporate Headquarters.

Although the Potterfield name is synonymous with MidwayUSA, this

generous gift is a personal donation from Larry and Brenda Potterfield.

The purpose of the donation is to grow and sustain youth shooting

programs for as many high school and college students as possible.

“Brenda and I are proud to partner with the Scholastic

Shooting Sports Foundation to support getting more kids

involved in shooting sports today,” said Larry Potterfield,

Founder and CEO of MidwayUSA. “We strongly support

initiatives like this because we believe we have an obligation

to help change the future for the better.”

The only way to guarantee the future of the shooting sports is to attract

more young men and women and the Potterfields see SSSF as a major

player in accomplishing this necessary goal.

“Thanks to the generous support of people like Larry and

Brenda Potterfield, the Scholastic Shooting Sports

Foundation will be able to introduce the clay target sports to

more youth across the nation and give them the opportunity

to participate in high-quality team-based competitions like

SCTP,” said Russ Arnold, Executive Director of SSSF. “A

donation like this from the Potterfields will go a long way in

helping us achieve our mission of developing more young

shooters, and furthering the future of our sport.”

Larry and Brenda Potterfield founded both MidwayUSA and the

MidwayUSA Foundation and are strong advocates of the shooting sports

and use donations like this one to further opportunities for shooting

programs. MidwayUSA, which was founded and is owned by the

Potterfields, is the world leader in the distribution of shooting and

reloading supplies and equipment.

The Potterfields have a long history of generous support of shooting

organizations. In 2008, they established the MidwayUSA Foundation

with over a half-million dollar personal donation. The MidwayUSA

Foundation is a not-for-profit foundation that is designed to provide

financial support and backing for both training and education in

shooting, hunting, and outdoor skills, as well as firearms safety. The

Foundation’s first endowment was the creation of the Scholastic

Shooting Trust Fund, which was developed to provide alumni and

interested patrons with a way of financially contributing to the shooting

teams of various colleges and high schools.

About The Scholastic Shooting Sports Foundation (SSSF)

The SSSF is a 501(c)(3) non-profit educational foundation. The purpose

of the foundation is to raise money to support and promote youth

development programs in the clay target shooting sports, and to provide

a positive and supportive program for assisting young athletes in their

growth and development as they tread life’s pathway toward becoming

productive and contributing members of society.

The Scholastic Clay Target Program (SCTP) is the vehicle used by the

foundation to make this happen. The SCTP is focused on providing,

promoting, and perpetuating opportunities for young athletes to safely

and enjoyably participate in a high-quality, team-based sport led by

trained and dedicated adult coaches focused on enhancing the personal

growth and development of their athletes.

The SSSF is responsible for all aspects of the Scholastic Clay Target

Program (SCTP) across the United States, including participant

registration, coaches, state advisors, state and national championships,

promotion, communications, websites, public relations and growth

strategies.

Article On Assault RiflesMisleading & BiasedNOV 22, 2010 04:13P.M.

The Buffalo New’s Article On Assault Rifles Misleading &

Biased

Shooters Committee on Political Education

Buffalo, NY --(Ammoland.com)- Another recent article on so called

“assault rifles” was very misleading and biased. The violent crime

problem should not focus on “too many guns on the street,” but rather

on too many criminals on the streets.

An automobile is dangerous only if there is an impaired, or illegal driver

behind the wheel. Guns are not dangerous unless they are in the hands of

those who are irresponsible or who have a bad attitude. Millions of

Americans have guns of all types and are not a problem because they are

honest, law-abiding people.

However, the article promoted a ban on guns that have only cosmetic

differences than those typically used for competition, hunting and home

defense.

If bans worked, Prohibition would have been the success story of the

Twentieth Century. It was the only Constitutional Amendment to be

repealed. If bans worked, we would not have a drug problem. Gun bans

also won’t work because criminals, who are the real problem, don’t obey

laws. It is more productive to focus on getting criminals off the streets.

Possession of any gun by a felon is a federal offense. Project Exile, which

has been little used in New York would automatically send a felon caught

with a gun to a federal prison for five years.

Illegal purchase of a firearm is also a federal crime, including the straw

purchases mentioned in the article. To solve a problem we have to define

the problem and the problem is criminals. Get them off the streets and

the problem is solved.

It’s Time For Gun Owners ofAmerica Membership To GrowNOV 22, 2010 03:55P.M.

After Big Wins In Elections, It’s Time For Gun Owners of

America Membership To Grow

Gun Owners of America

Washington, DC --(Ammoland.com)- Gun Owners of America was

able to help elect 5 new pro-gun members to the United States Senate

and more than 40 pro-gunners to the House of Representatives!

AND YOU MADE IT POSSIBLE. Thank you.

In an election where we were the ONLY NATIONAL GUN GROUP to

help many of these candidates, it highlights just how critical the gun

issue is to Americans, and how important you were to those victories.

GOA could not have done the work without the support of our members

— and now, more than ever, we need your help to double or even triple

our membership before 2012!!!

Why? Because 2012 will be a presidential election year and the radical

left wing in America will once again be “all in” for Barack Obama.

If they turn out their forces to help Obama win re-election, those voters

will translate down to votes for anti-gun members of Congress again, just

as they did in 2008.

We can’t let that happen without a fight.

Gun Owners of America and GOA Political Victory Fund used

limited resources this year to make great gains to protect the Second

Amendment. If you can help us grow now, by alerting your family,

friends and neighbors, to the work of GOA and the need for them to

become members, we will be able to win additional races in 2012!

Believe me, the anti-gun left in this nation has not given up. They see the

2010 election as a hiccup, not the end of the battle or the war. And we

can’t look at it that way either.

The bottom line in elections is that there is strength in numbers, and if

GOA doubles in size NOW, we can multiply what we did this year by

several times. That is real “bang for the buck.”

With our limited resources this year, we were able to travel around the

country giving the voting records of the pro-gun and anti-gun candidates

to their voters. We were able to make thousands of phone calls directly to

pro-gun voters in the target districts. We were able to send mailings and

e-mail alerts to our members to ask them to volunteer in key races.

And the payoff is those 5 new Senators and over 40 members of the

House I mentioned above.

But our work is far from over!

Anti-gun Harry Reid is still in control as the Majority Leader of the

United States Senate. Nancy Pelosi still wields her power in the House.

AND BARACK OBAMA IS STILL PRESIDENT!

As I said, we cannot sit back now and think we won the war. We won the

first battle over the Obama Administration and the radical left who still

hold the leadership in the Senate.

That’s why Gun Owners of America needs you.

There is a reason why Congressman Ron Paul calls GOA the only “no

compromise gun lobby in Washington.”

There is a reason why Senator Tom Coburn calls GOA the “real gun lobby

in Washington D.C.”

And that reason is YOU!

Our members help put pressure on Congress every time we send one of

our alerts asking you to contact your representatives about gun

legislation.

When our lobbyists hit the halls of Congress and tell members we are

opposed or supportive of a bill, they know our membership will also let

them know WE ARE ALL WATCHING HOW THEY VOTE.

Just think how much more effective we can be if we double or triple our

membership in the next 12 months!

2010 has been the “easy year” when it comes to election gains. We went

out and picked the “low-hanging fruit.”

The races in 2012 will be for tougher districts, tougher candidates and

we’ll also be fighting the Obama factor — where the radical left-wing will

be pouring huge amounts of money and manpower to help make him a

two-term president.

So, if you’ve just sat back to enjoy the many victories of November 2nd,

DON’T!

WE NEED YOU!

You are our best salesperson to tell our story to your friends, neighbors

and everyone you communicate with around the country.

Tell them that for a small membership donation of $20 or $30, they can

be a major factor in not only stopping anti-gun laws… they can be part of

the organization that is fighting to repeal the anti-gun laws already on

the books.

I don’t care if they are hunters, shooters, collectors or just people who

understand that the Second Amendment is critical to all our other

freedoms, we need them as members of GOA.

And if they sign up to receive our GOA e-mail alerts, they can be part of

our lobbying team of people all over the country who call, write and e-

mail our elected leaders on important gun issues.

GOA and our members have stood alone many times when others

compromised, or said legislation or Presidential appointments could not

be stopped — and we have proved the naysayers wrong.

WE WILL NOT COMPROMISE — your rights are not “bargaining chips”

to be used at the negotiating table, and we will never treat them as such.

Don’t read this article on AmmoLand and do nothing. Pass it on to

everyone you know and ask them to join Gun Owners of America now by

going to:

http://www.gunowners.org/ordergoamem.htm

It will make a huge difference in the outcome of the 2012 elections and

the future of this nation. Thank you.

College President InsultsSurvivors Of America’s SecondDeadliest Mass ShootingNOV 22, 2010 03:27P.M.

College President Insults Survivors Of America’s Second

Deadliest Mass Shooting

Students for Concealed Carry on Campus

Any Campus, USA --(Ammoland.com)- Dr. Bill Holda, president of

Kilgore College in Kilgore, TX, will have to do some fast backpedaling if

he’s to have any hope of outrunning his recent comments about the 1991

massacre at a Luby’s Cafeteria in Killeen, TX – the second deadliest mass

shooting in U.S. history, surpassed only by the 2007 Virginia Tech

massacre.

Dr. Holda recently angered both survivors of the shooting and concealed

carry advocates by claiming that some of the victims of the massacre

(which became a rallying cry for supporters of lawful self-defense)

actually shot each other.

Six days after the November 2 elections, Texas State Representative-

Elect David Simpson (R-Longview) pre-filed a bill that would allow

holders of state-issued concealed handgun licenses to carry concealed

handguns on Texas college campuses. This did not sit well with Dr.

Holda, who chastised the move as “unfortunate and ill-advised”i and

criticized Simpson for filing the bill without first consulting him. Holda

proclaimed, “What we want is for representatives to file legislation

based on a good body of information.”ii

As an example of the type of information he believes Simpson failed to

consider, Holda pointed to the Luby’s massacre, telling a local TV

station, “[During the Luby’s massacre] you had multiple shooters, and

innocent people were killed by other people who had concealed, licensed

handguns, because they weren’t sure who was the shooter and who was

a defender.”iii

Holda’s frightening depiction of the 1991 mass shooting suffers from

only one flaw: It is a complete and total fabrication that lacks even a hint

of truth. The State of Texas did not begin issuing or honoring concealed

handgun licenses until 1996, five years after the Luby’s massacre. At the

time of the shooting, state law made it a serious crime for anyone other

than a law enforcement officer to carry a handgun. All of the victims (23

killed, 20 wounded) were shot by the lone gunman himself.

Bill Holda’s grievous misstatement of fact is not sitting well with at least

one survivor of the Luby’s massacre. After watching her parents die in

the attack, Dr. Suzanna Gratia Hupp became one of America’s leading

advocates for the legalization of concealed carry. She testified before

Congress and several state legislatures that she very well could have

stopped the gunman had she not been required to leave her gun in her

car.

Dr. Hupp, a former Texas State Representative and the

author of From Luby’s to the Legislature, responded to

Holda’s comments by stating, “I’m not sure which is more

offensive, the apparent complete fabrication of Dr. Holda’s

Luby’s Cafeteria story or the lack of journalistic effort by the

reporter to correct his fictional tale.” Addressing Bill Holda

directly, Hupp added, “Dr. Holda, the only person who had a

gun was the madman slaughtering those around me like fish

in a barrel. I defy you to name one place in this country where

a mass shooting has occurred despite the people there being

allowed to carry concealed handguns for protection. These

madmen go where they know they will get a high body

count.”

Bill Holda’s statement about the Luby’s massacre is unparalleled in its

audacity, but it is not the only time he has stumbled over the facts, in his

rush to speak out against the pending “campus carry” bill. Holda

recently accusediv Texas legislators of hypocritically pushing campus

carry legislation while refusing to allow concealed handguns in the

House and Senate galleries. In reality, licensed concealed carry is now

allowedv throughout the Texas Capitol, including in the chamber

galleries.

Dr. Holda also describedvi Simpson’s legislation as an unfunded

mandate and suggested that the bill is not in keeping with a fiscally

conservative agenda, despite the fact that no provision of the bill places

any fiscal demands on colleges or universities. The bill, as written, would

simply place colleges and universities under the same rules as churches,

movie theaters, shopping malls, office buildings, grocery stores,

restaurants, banks, etc.

Dr. Bill Holda is not shy about his belief that he should have been

consulted prior to the filing of this bill, yet everything he has said on the

subject has been not only wrong but monumentally and offensively

wrong. By repeatedly demonstrating his ignorance of the facts, Bill

Holda serves as a perpetual rebuttal to his own assertion that college

officials, not state legislators, are best equipped to determine whether or

not licensed concealed carry should be allowed on Texas college

campuses.

W. Scott Lewis, Texas legislative director for Students for

Concealed Carry on Campus, lamented, “I can only assume

that this is what we have to look forward to from the ivory

tower academics who claim to know what’s best for the adults

working and studying at state-funded colleges.”

Lewis then added, “I can’t imagine that Dr. Holda is anxious

to make any more public statements on this issue, but if he is

serious about wanting a ‘good body of information,’ or if he

just wants another opportunity to stick his foot in his mouth,

my organization would welcome the opportunity to hold an

open debate on the Kilgore College campus.”

Lawsuit Filed Against PostOffice Gun BanNOV 22, 2010 02:59P.M.

Lawsuit Filed Against Post Office Gun Ban

National Association for Gun Rights

Colorado -–(Ammoland.com)- If there’s anything that makes a

concealed carry permit holder upset, its criminal safezones.

A criminal safezone is where only criminals are safe, because armed self

defense is banned. That’s why the National Association for Gun Rights

has filed a lawsuit against the United State Postal Service.

The U.S. Postal Service uses bureaucratic rules to ban your right to carry

in a Post Office, and that’s important, even if you don’t carry concealed

–- it’s the camel’s nose under the tent.

You see, the U.S. Postal Service claims citizens don’t have the right to self

defense in Post Offices.

There’s one problem with that claim: it isn’t true.

The law cited by the Post Office creates an exception for “lawful carrying

of firearms” for “other lawful purposes.” On top of that, both the Heller

and McDonald Supreme Court decisions guarantee “the individual right

to possess and carry weapons in case of confrontation.”

Sounds like it should be simple, right?

Lawsuit Filed Against Post Office Gun Ban

Well, no government bureaucracy ever gave up power without a fight.

And, given the anti-gun nature of the Obama administration, we know

they aren’t going to instruct the Postal service properly.

So I assumed you’d want your organization to act… and quickly.

Do you support this lawsuit on behalf of law-abiding citizens for their

self defense?

I sincerely hope so. I know, personally, it infuriates me to be disarmed

just because I’m picking up my mail.

But imagine how Debbie Bonidy feels. Debbie and Tab Bonidy live in the

mountains of Colorado, and are the plaintiffs –- along with the National

Association for Gun Rights –- against the Postal Service.

Debbie Bonidy doesn’t like going anywhere without her personal

handgun, which is why she went through the trouble of being trained,

proving she’s law-abiding, and getting her concealed carry permit. Not

only does the U.S. Postal Service say she can’t carry that handgun for self

protection in a Post Office, but they arrogantly claim she can’t even leave

it in her car when in their lot.

If we win this lawsuit, that outrageous policy will change in every Post

Office in America.

For Freedom,

Dudley Brown

Executive Director

National Association for Gun Rights

P.S. I hope you will support our lawsuit against the Postal Services’ ban

on self-defense.

We’ve already filed the suit against the Post Office, and if we win, they’ll

be forced to allow legally authorized citizens to carry in Post Offices

across the country.

groups and lobbying for pro-gun federal legislation. Brown has been a

Second AmendmentFoundation Sues NJ OfficialsFor Gun Permit DenialsNOV 22, 2010 02:39P.M.

Second Amendment Foundation Sues NJ Officials For

‘Deprivation Of Civil Rights’ On Gun Permit Denials

Second Amendment Foundation

BELLEVUE, WA --(Ammoland.com)- The Second Amendment

Foundation today filed suit in U.S. District Court for the District of New

Jersey against several New Jersey officials for deprivation of civil rights

under color of law.

SAF is joined in the lawsuit by the Association of New Jersey Rifle &

Pistol Clubs, Inc. and six private citizens whose applications for permits

to carry have been denied generally on the grounds that they have not

shown a “justifiable need.”

One of the plaintiffs is a kidnap victim, another is a part-time sheriff’s

deputy, a third carries large amounts of cash in his private business and

another is a civilian employee of the FBI in New Jersey who is fearful of

attack from a radical Islamic fundamentalist group.

Plaintiffs are represented by attorneys David D. Jensen and Robert P.

Firriolo with the firm of Duane Morris, LLP in Newark.

Named as defendants in the case are three Superior Court judges, Philip

J. Maenza, Morris County; Rudolph A. Filko, Passaic County and

Edward A. Jerejian of Bergen County, plus Col. Rick Fuentes,

superintendent of the State Police, Hammonton Police Chief Frank

Ingemi and New Jersey Attorney General Paula T. Dow.

“Law-abiding New Jersey citizens have been arbitrarily

deprived of their ability to defend themselves and their

families for years under the state’s horribly-crafted laws,”

said SAF Executive Vice President Alan M. Gottlieb.

“The law grants uncontrolled discretion to police chiefs and

other public officials to deny license applications even in

cases where the applicant has shown a clear and present

danger exists.

“If being a kidnap victim, or part-time law enforcement

officer, or the potential target of a known radical group does

not clearly demonstrate a justifiable need,” he continued, “the

defendants need to explain what would. Do citizens need

guns to their heads or knives to their throats before the state

considers their need to be justified?

“Supreme Court rulings have made it clear that the Second

Amendment prohibits states from completely banning the

carrying of handguns for self-defense,” Gottlieb said. “Nor

may states deny citizens the right to carry handguns in non-

sensitive places or deprive them of the right to carry in an

arbitrary and capricious manner.

That’s what is happening today in New Jersey, and we intend

to stop it.”

The Second Amendment Foundation (www.saf.org) is the nation’s oldest

and largest tax-exempt education, research, publishing and legal action

group focusing on the Constitutional right and heritage to privately own

and possess firearms. Founded in 1974, The Foundation has grown to

more than 650,000 members and supporters and conducts many

programs designed to better inform the public about the consequences of

gun control. SAF has previously funded successful firearms-related suits

against the cities of Los Angeles; New Haven, CT; and San Francisco on

behalf of American gun owners, a lawsuit against the cities suing gun

makers and an amicus brief and fund for the Emerson case holding the

Second Amendment as an individual right.

Maryland NPR RemindsHunters To Stay Safe DuringFirearm Deer SeasonNOV 22, 2010 02:21P.M.

Maryland NPR Reminds Hunters To Stay Safe During Firearm

Deer Season

Maryland Department of Natural Resources

Annapolis, MD --(Ammoland.com)- The Maryland Natural Resources

Police (NRP) encourages hunters to put safety first as this year’s firearm

deer season opens November 27, the day with the greatest concentration

of hunters afield.

“Tree stand incidents account for most hunting accidents,”

said NRP Superintendent Colonel George G. Johnson IV.

“There have already been three tree stand related hunting

fatalities this hunting season.”

All hunters should use a full-body safety harness that keeps the hunter

tethered to the tree and prevents a fall to the ground. NRP reminds

hunters to inspect their safety equipment prior to use and replace any

worn or broken pieces. The Maryland Department of Natural Resources

(DNR) has produced a helpful video, demonstrating how to use a tree

stand and full-body safety harness that can be viewed above.

The improper use of weapons has been another cause of accidents.

Hunters should inspect, be familiar with, and practice with the weapon

that is to be used prior to the start of the hunt.

When handling a weapon, hunters should always follow two

cardinal rules:

• Treat every gun as if it is loaded and never point the firearm at

anything unless intending to shoot.

• Positively identify the intended target and make sure the area

beyond is devoid of other hunters or property before the trigger is

pulled.

Before hunting, all hunters should follow these laws and

regulations before they go hunting:

• Hunters must obtain and possess a hunting license while hunting.

• A course in firearms and hunter safety is required for those who

did not hunt prior to July 1, 1977.

• Hunters must possess written permission from landowner before

hunting on private property.

• Hunters and companions must wear a fluorescent cap or outer

garment that contains 250 square-inches of fluorescent orange

color.

• Possessing loaded weapons in a vehicle is prohibited. This includes

ammunition in the magazine or chamber.

• It is illegal to shoot or hunt from or across a roadway.

• Hunting within 150 yards of a residence, camp or other building is

prohibited without advance permission of owner or occupant.

• Before removing the deer from the location of the kill, a field tag

must be filled out and attached to the deer. It must be recorded on

the hunter’s Big Game Harvest Record.

• Hunters must check-in the deer within 24 hours of field tagging to

the Department of Natural Resources via the internet at

www.gamecheck.dnr.state.md.us or the call the Big Game

Registration phone line at 1-888-800-0120. The confirmation

number must then be entered onto the Big Game Harvest Record.

Citizens are encouraged to call the Natural Resources Police

Communication Center at 800-628-9944 with poaching complaints,

public lands enforcement questions or maritime enforcement questions.

Nevada Conservation ProjectsSelected for Elk FoundationGrantsNOV 22, 2010 12:53P.M.

Nevada Conservation Projects Selected for Elk Foundation

Grants

Rocky Mountain Elk Foundation

MISSOULA, Mont. --(Ammoland.com)-More than 3,900 acres in

Nevada are slated to be enhanced for elk and other wildlife as a result of

several projects selected to receive 2010 grants from the Rocky Mountain

Elk Foundation.

The new RMEF funding, totaling $58,330, also includes an education

project grant that will benefit schoolteachers and students in Nevada.

“”We’re proud to continue our long tradition of funding

outstanding conservation and education projects in Nevada,

thanks to our volunteers across the state and their dedicated

work in organizing and hosting banquets and other

fundraisers over the past year,” said David Allen, RMEF

president and CEO. “Since 1984, our grants have helped

complete 184 different projects in Nevada with a combined

value of more than $14.8 million.””

This year’s RMEF grants will help fund the following projects:

Habitat Enhancement

In the Humboldt-Toiyabe National Forest, RMEF grants will be used to

help thin 1,500 acres of pinyon-juniper invasion in shrub habitat used as

summer range by elk in the White Pine Mountains area; install two

1,800-gallon tanks, water collection devices and wildlife drinking

mechanisms to improve two 640-acre sections of the White Pine/Grant-

Quinn Range; and prescribe burn 1,000 acres and hand-thin 350 acres to

remove conifer encroachment in sagebrush habitat in North Schell Creek

area.

Conservation Education

RMEF is providing sponsorship for the Great Basin 2010 Teachers

Workshop to help instructors and, by extension, students better

understand the wildlife, biology, ecology, geology, archaeology and

history of the region.

Another RMEF grant will be used to help with appraisal of a property

being considered for acquisition, which would permanently protect

habitat and open public access.

Habitat projects are selected for grants using science-based criteria and a

committee of RMEF volunteers and staff along with representatives from

partnering agencies and universities. A committee of RMEF field staff

and volunteers selects education projects.

Partners for 2010 projects in Nevada include the Bureau of Land

Management, Nevada Department of Wildlife, U.S. Forest Service, other

organizations, agencies and landowners.

About the Rocky Mountain Elk Foundation:

Snowy peaks, dark timber basins and grassy meadows. RMEF is leading

an elk country initiative that has conserved or enhanced habitat on over

5.8 million acres—a land area equivalent to a swath three miles wide and

stretching along the entire Continental Divide from Canada to Mexico.

RMEF also works to open, secure and improve public access for hunting,

fishing and other recreation. Get involved at www.rmef.org or 800-CALL

Friends of NRA Announces 2011Gun of the YearNOV 22, 2010 12:44P.M.

Friends of NRA Announces 2011 Gun of the Year

Friends of NRA 2011 Gun of the Year

Friends of NRA

Charlotte, NC --(Ammoland.com)- Thanks to collaboration with Colt

and Baron’s Engraving, Friends of NRA is pleased to announce the 2011

Gun of the Year: a custom made Colt 1911 that honors the firearm’s 100

years of service in the United States Armed Forces and will be a great

addition to any firearm enthusiast’s collection.

Following its success in trials, the Colt pistol was formally adopted by the

Army in the year 1911, thus gaining its designation as the Colt Model

1911. Later adopted by both the Navy and Marine Corps in 1913, the

high-demand for the pistol during both World Wars undoubtedly led to

its universal popularity today.

The Colt 1991TM Series is a direct descendant of the original 1911A1 and

after more than nine decades many consider it the standard which has

often been imitated, but never duplicated. The pistol dually serves as

both a staple of the military and as an iconic symbol for it. After two

years in development and in honor of the 100th Anniversary of the 1911

model, the combined efforts of Friends of NRA, Colt Manufacturing and

Baron’s Engraving bring you the exclusive 2011 Friends of NRA Gun of

the Year – A unique Colt Model 01991Z Government .45ACP with

commemorative engraving illustrating every major war in which the Colt

prevailed.

“It was an honor working with two respected, American

owned companies to develop this exclusive pistol for Friends

of NRA events,” said John DaSilva, National Manager of

Events and Marketing.

“We know our volunteers are very excited and pleased with

the opportunity to feature the Colt 1911 pistol at fundraising

events beginning in 2011.”

The 2011 Gun of the Year is custom made with a 24 karat gold plated

barrel bushing and screws on the grip panels and ornate embellished

slides. The serpentine Colt logo and “2011 Gun of the Year” text is

featured in a 24 karat selective gold fill on the right side of the firearm’s

slide with sculpted roll engraving boasting a scrolling banner with the

phrase “Military U.S. Standard” alongside the names of every major war

it participated in. The left side slide features the rampant Colt horse and

“Colt 1911 100 Years” embellished in 24kt gold fill and sculpted roll

engraving showcasing four military vehicles used by the U.S. throughout

wartime.

Offered only at your local Friends of NRA events, each pistol has a 5”

barrel, carbon steel polished blued finish, 7+1 capacity, standard grip

safety, spur hammer and custom rosewood grips with an NRA medallion

recessed on both panels. Every specially produced Colt commemorative

pistol in this limited edition is individually serialized in sequential order

from “1911NRA0000” through “1911NRA1150.” Each is encased in a Colt

Blue Custom Shop box with white sleeve and can be added to your

existing Colt collection.

Friends of NRA is a grassroots fund-raising program that fosters

community involvement, raises money, and gives 100 percent of the net

proceeds to qualified local, state, and national programs. Working with

the NRA’s field staff, thousands of volunteers nationwide participate in

the program by organizing committees and planning events in their

communities. Over the course of its history, over 12,000 events have

been held which have reached over two million attendees. Monies raised

at these events go to The NRA Foundation, a 501(c)(3) charitable

organization.

Visit the Friends of NRA website at www.friendsofnra.org. For more

DaSilva at (703) 267-1356 or jdasilva@nrahq.org.

Michigan DNRE Announces Furbearer Trapper Registration

Hours

Video Add by AmmoLand Shooting Sports News and not MDNR.

Michigan Department of Natural Resources

Michigan --(Ammoland.com)- The Department of Natural Resources

and Environment today announced the furbearer registration hours at

DNRE Field Offices and Operations Service Centers statewide for the

2010-2011 season.

Anyone taking a bobcat, river otter, fisher or marten must bring the

animal to a designated furbearer check station for examination. DNRE

staff members collect biological data from the harvested animals,

including sex, age and physical condition of the specimen. An official seal

is then attached to each pelt to show it has been inspected.

“Registration for these furbearers is mandatory, as the

information gathered helps us determine proposed bag limits

and season structure for the future,” said DNRE furbearer

specialist Adam Bump. “Cooperation from trappers and

hunters in this effort is appreciated.”

DNRE offices with specially designated furbearer registration

Wisconsin Gun OwnersTo FightFor Constitutional CarryNOV 22, 2010 10:56A.M.

Wisconsin Gun Owners To Fight For Constitutional Carry

Will a new republican majority in the Wisconsin legislature restore

your right to bear arms? Not without your pressure, they won’t.

Constitutional Carry

Wisconsin Gun Owners

Madison, Wis. --(Ammoland.com)- With sweeping Republican

victories all across Wisconsin, our chance to seize the moment for

concealed carry is now.

On Nov. 2, State Republicans clinched the “Super Trifecta” by winning

majorities in the Wisconsin House, Senate and the Governor’s seat.

We now have every opportunity in the world to restore our right to carry.

But there’s one problem. Without intense grassroots pressure, these

politicians will sell you out and won’t lift a finger to fight on your behalf.

If you don’t believe me, click here to see the long list of those who oppose

your right to carry. That’s right. They think they can throw you a few

crumbs and you’ll turn a blind eye to this mistreatment.

Well, that’s not going to fly. Allow me to explain.

There are two forms of concealed carry we could lobby for:

Constitutional Carry (known as Vermont- or Alaska Carry) and “Shall-

Issue” carry.

• Constitutional Carry treats your right to bear arms as the

Constitution expressly says it should … as an inalienable right.

• Shall-Issue concealed carry, on the other hand, requires a permit,

fee, background check and usually a law enforcement agency to

“issue” you a permit.

There is no reason why Wisconsin gun owners shouldn’t demand a

complete and total repeal of the ban on carrying concealed handguns

now that Republicans (who claim to be pro-gun) control our legislature.

Even so, there is little doubt in my mind that Republicans will do as

they’ve always done: Grovel at the feet of anti-gun groups, snatching

victory from the jaws of defeat …

… unless you and I and thousands of other WGO members

across Wisconsin demand republicans support a clean bill.

And the only way that will happen is if you take action today.

Now, we believe we need two forms of concealed carry in Wisconsin.

Why not offer permits as an option for those who want one so they can

travel armed to other states?

But for those who don’t believe the right to bear arms should be licensed,

Constitutional Carry would mean those folks simply carry here in

Wisconsin without a permit.

My question to you is, will you work with me and key legislators to

ensure concealed carry legislation gets passed when the new legislative

session begins?

Please act right away. I’m anxiously awaiting your reply.

Very Truly Yours,

Corey Signature Corey Graff Executive Director

About:

WGO works for grassroots gun owners, not politicians. While many gun

lobbies fight for “reasonable gun control,” WGO sets a higher standard:

Defining the terrain of pro-gun political battle. Sure, many groups claim

they’re “pro-gun” — all the while they provide cover for anti-gun deals

cut by politicians — but only WGO truly informs gun owners, remaining

committed to a 100% pro-gun position. We oppose all gun control —

Smith & Wesson

SPRINGFIELD, Mass.--(Ammoland.com)- Smith & Wesson Holding

Corporation (NASDAQ: SWHC), parent company of Smith & Wesson

Corp., the legendary 158-year old company in the global business of

safety, security, protection and sport, announced today the Nevada

Department of Public Safety (DPS) has chosen to equip its officers with

new patrol rifles from Smith & Wesson.

The Nevada DPS has received 500 M&P15X tactical rifles to complete the

agency’s full conversion to the new Smith & Wesson firearms. Nevada

DPS joins a number of law enforcement agencies that have converted to

Smith & Wesson tactical rifles, including the Nebraska State Patrol,

which also recently selected duty rifles from the Company’s M&P Series.

Nevada DPS

During the department’s selection process for a new patrol rifle, the

Nevada DPS made a decision to change from the individual authorized

carry program to a single operating system and platform for all of its

officers.

The Nevada DPS tested several manufacturers’ rifles during the

evaluation period and ultimately selected the Smith & Wesson

M&P15X tactical rifle. Officials indicated that the M&P15X was

standard with several of their preferred features including a quad-rail

forend for multiple accessory attachment points, a folding battle sight

and a gas operated system.

Along with the 500 M&P15X rifles, Smith & Wesson provided the

Nevada DPS with a training and armorers course package. As the

department continues its full conversion over to the new Smith &

Wesson rifles, officers will complete a certification course before being

issued the new patrol rifle.

Nebraska State Patrol

After an extensive testing and evaluation period that involved eight

different firearm manufacturers and 17 different submissions, the

Nebraska State Patrol decided to equip its officers with M&P15 tactical

rifles. During the review period, the Nebraska State Patrol acknowledged

the M&P15 rifle for its accuracy, high quality components, and ability to

operate reliably throughout frequent firing. The department also noted

that the semi-automatic rifle was fully supported with training and

attentive customer service from Smith & Wesson.

Smith & Wesson recently completed shipments of 475 M&P15 rifles to

the Nebraska State Patrol. Officers have completed certification courses

and the M&P15 rifle is currently in service.

“The decision by both the Nevada DPS and the Nebraska

State Patrol to convert to our M&P15 rifles continues to

reinforce the positive reputation that these firearms have

earned with police forces throughout the United States,” said

Leland Nichols, Vice President of Global Sales for Smith &

Wesson.

“Today, we offer over 16 variants of the M&P15 rifle, each

designed with a specific set of features needed to address

different military and law enforcement requirements. Much

like the success that the M&P pistol has achieved, the M&P

Rifle Series is clearly winning the confidence of law

enforcement officers.”

Kowa Genesis 44 WhitetailBinocularsNOV 22, 2010 10:17A.M.

Kowa Genesis 44 Whitetail Binoculars

Kowa USA

Los Angeles, California --(Ammoland.com)- The Kowa Genesis 44 is

building a reputation as the best whitetail binocular on the market and

for good reason.

The Genesis series binoculars are the first binoculars to use Prominar

XD lenses. The pure fluorite crystal of Koa’s Prominar lens are paired

with convex lenses made of glass with special dispersion properties to

reduce chromatic aberration lifting optical quality to an amazing height.

Even in the challenging light of dawn and dusk, this binocular produces

clear and sharp views of deer at a distance.

Kowa Genesis 44 Whitetail Binoculars

These high performance binoculars use advanced technology to create a

brighter image with high contrast and remarkable color reproduction

that can’t be duplicated by a normal achromatic lens.

The Genesis 44 is waterproof and filled with dry nitrogen gas to prevent

the lens from fogging.

The prism is phase coated to insure sharp images and outstanding

contrast.

The binoculars feature C3 coating, which is far superior to aluminum or

silver coating, for super bright and sharp images.

The Genesis 44 boasts a wide field of view, which is ideal for open range

hunting and its close focus range on 5 feet is perfect for observing brushy

wood thickets.

The magnesium alloy body decreases the weight of the binocular while

providing a rugged structure that can withstand the toughest hunting

conditions.

The Genesis 44′s light weight, durability and clarity make it the go-to

binocular for the hardcore whitetail hunter.
