NSSF Issues Statement on Connecticut Legislative Proposals

NEWTOWN, Conn. — The National Shooting Sports Foundation (NSSF), the trade association for the firearms and ammunition industry, issued the following statement today:
The firearms industry has a long history in Connecticut and to this day has a sizeable economic presence and workforce in the Constitution State. We are disappointed therefore that the General Assembly’s Task Force could not reach a bipartisan agreement on proposals to prevent future violence involving the criminal misuse of firearms.
NSSF agrees with suggestions that the focus should be to keep firearms out of the wrong hands, but an outright ban of the most popular semiautomatic rifle in the United States today, as some are suggesting, for what are essentially cosmetic reasons would make no one safer and is unfair to the millions of people who have purchased them legally and use them responsibly for hunting, shooting competition and home defense. It also holds the real prospect of affecting employment in our state because underlying issues go deeper than whether manufacturing exemptions would be issued. We will review all proposals in more detail and will continue to be a resource to achieve our common goal of a safer Connecticut.

A Beagle and a Bunny

By Glen Wunderlich

Rabbit and hare hunting have never been easy for me over the past 40 years.  I’ve tried shotguns from the diminutive .410 gauge to the more-than-adequate 12-gauge scatterguns. Additionally, rimfires have been employed at times for an added challenge not entirely necessary in the name of fairness. It’s not that I’m that bad of a shot, either, although I’m far from an expert with a smoothbore.

Without a good dog, several factors contribute to the degree of difficulty:  Tiresome trudging through deep snow and the element of surprise. Deep snow speaks for itself, when foot travel is cumbersome at best and impossible other times without snowshoes. Hard work and snowshoes go hand-in-hand, although they can be the only means to get into bunny country at times. Read more
