CCRKBA: Russian Outrages in Ukraine Prove Need for Armed Populace

BELLEVUE, WA. – Newly-revealed Russian outrages including the attacks on a maternity hospital and innocent women and children further reinforces the necessity for all European nations to have an armed and trained populace, the Citizens Committee for the Right to Keep and Bear Arms said today.

“Several news agencies are reporting these barbaric attacks,” said CCRKBA Chairman Alan Gottlieb, “which should erase any doubt about the intent of the Russian invaders, and the need for every able bodied citizen to have the tools to fight back. This is not a game of hypotheticals. Innocent women and children are being targeted.

“Other European nations should take a lesson from what is now unfolding in Ukraine,” he continued. “In this country, our founders wisely included the constitutional protection of the fundamental right to keep and bear arms, but nations in Europe have no such provisions. Still, we believe it is incumbent upon all nations to adopt a proactive stance, considering what we’ve seen unfolding over the past three weeks.

“An armed and trained population can defend their homes and their homeland,” Gottlieb observed. “Right now, other countries should be promoting private gun ownership rather than preventing their citizens from having firearms and being well-trained in their use.

“We’ve read and heard criticisms from the gun prohibition crowd about stressing the importance of our Second Amendment to the security of a free state,” he added, “but those critics are speaking from the comfort of a currently safe nation. While they seem content to discuss the Ukraine tragedy from an academic perspective, the people actually living through that horror have no such luxury, nor do citizens of adjacent nations who are justifiably concerned about their own safety with each passing day of conflict.

Meprolight Back-Up Sights – to Stay in The Fight

Things don’t always go according to plan, especially in combat. Gear and equipment will malfunction or break. Meprolight’s engineers, having served in the Israel Defense Forces, knew first-hand the value of having a go-to-back-up plan. Out of their experience, they designed a pair of back-up sights, giving shooters the option of selecting the one that keeps them in the fight in case their optic goes down.

Meprolight® upgraded the FRBS by offering it with a Hyper-Bright™ front sight featuring an extremely bright colored ring with tritium illumination in your choice of green, yellow, or orange.

NSSF Free Webinar: ‘Zero Tolerance’ Policy Update

‘Zero Tolerance’ Policy Update – Biden’s Efforts Targeting ‘Rogue Gun Dealers’

The ATF has been directed by the Biden Administration and the leadership in the Department of Justice to implement a “Zero Tolerance” policy targeting what they are calling “Rogue Gun Dealers.” Unfortunately, with this new policy, the expectations for FFLs have been set even higher where compliance is concerned, to the point where even a single violation could create a scenario for licensure revocation.

In this session (March 21, 2022 at 11 A.M. EDT), you’ll hear from John “JC” Clark with FFL Consultants and a member of the NSSF Compliance Consultant Team who is currently supporting several Federal Firearm Licensees that are actively attempting to save their FFL and livelihoods due to receiving a Notice of Revocation. Learn what “Zero Tolerance” means and gain insights into what these FFLs are experiencing and why you need to pay attention before, not after, an ATF inspection. Read more

NSSF Welcomes Rep. Bergman’s FIND Act Introduction in Congress

NEWTOWN, Conn. — NSSF®, the firearm industry trade association, welcomed the introduction of H.R. 6970, the Firearm Industry Nondiscrimination (FIND) Act, into Congress by U.S. Rep. Jack Bergman (R-Mich.). The bill has 55 original co-sponsors. This vital legislation will end the ability of corporate entities from profiting from taxpayer-funded federal contracts while discriminating against a Constitutionally-protected industry at the same time.

“This legislation is critical to ensuring ‘woke’ corporations don’t use their financial might, funded by taxpayers, to deny essential services to the firearm industry,” said Lawrence G. Keane, NSSF Senior Vice President and General Counsel. “Corporations, in particular financial institutions, have been dictating public policies from boardrooms that throttle firearm businesses, which are Constitutionally-protected. This bill will no longer allow those corporations to benefit from taxpayer dollars while at the same time using those funds to deny Americans their Second Amendment rights. We thank Congressman Bergman for his leadership to ensure fairness in business, reasserting Congress’s role in ensuring the federal government isn’t picking winners and losers in the marketplace based on politics and protecting the ability of a lawful industry to compete for services without artificial and agenda-driven barriers.” Read more
