CCRKBA Calls for Full Disclosure of ASLGVP Membership, Funding

When an organization consists of elected public officials, there must be complete transparency.

BELLEVUE, WA – In response to this week’s launch of a new gun control organization consisting of state legislators from all 50 states, plus Puerto Rico, the Citizens Committee for the Right to Keep and Bear Arms today called on the American State Legislators for Gun Violence Prevention to immediately publish a roster of their members, and disclose their funding sources.

“Private lobbying organizations might expect to have some degree of privacy,” said CCRKBA Chairman Alan M. Gottlieb, “but when an organization consists of elected public officials, there must be complete transparency. The public deserves to know who belongs to this organization, and who is providing financial support.”

He noted that the group’s mailing address is at a Post Office box in New York City’s Madison Square Station.

Reuters reported that the ASLGVP had not released information on its preliminary donors, acknowledging only that fundraising efforts are in progress. Another report said that the group had not yet published a list of members, said to number around 200 lawmakers, over concerns about “political backlash.” The group was launched by Democratic New York Assemblyman Brian Kavanagh.

“If these state lawmakers are worried about political backlash back home,” Gottlieb observed, “they must have good reason for that. Reports say Kavanagh founded this group because Congress has not adopted certain gun control measures. This has become the argument of the gun prohibition lobby. They failed to pressure Congress, so now the strategy is to attack gun rights at the state level, where presumably members of this new anti-gun lawmakers’ group will push their gun control agenda through the state legislatures.

Modern Hunting Optics

Review by Glen Wunderlich

In a newly released book, John Barsness has done all the research necessary for thoughtful hunters to  understand hunting optics in his book, Modern Hunting Optics.  Ever had trouble sighting in a firearm and thought the scope was at fault?  It could be, but more likely, the issue is with “farmer tight” installation of scope rings.  But, how tight is too tight.  It’s in the book.

So is a compilation of modern scope comparisons’ brightness.

Spotting scopes, binoculars, hunting scopes (including red dots) are all explained, along with how to sight in guns.

A great Christmas gift to any avid hunter or shooter.  For an in-depth review and ordering information, click here…

Remington “Corrects” CNBC Reporting

Yesterday afternoon, CNBC erroneously reported that Remington Arms was recalling 7.85 million rifles. This report was fundamentally inaccurate and, once again, CNBC did not comply with the most basic tenet of reporting – fact checking. Even a cursory review of the court filings would have revealed CNBC’s errors. That said, other news sources picked-up and repeated the misinformation about the proposed settlement. In response, the Plaintiffs’ counsel immediately took steps to correct CNBC’s inaccuracies by clarifying the terms of the proposed settlement in their own press release, which, in part, stated: Read more
