NRA Statement in Response to President Obama’s Gun Control Proposals

Fairfax, Va. – Throughout its history, the National Rifle Association has led efforts to promote safety and responsible gun ownership. Keeping our children and society safe remains our top priority.

The NRA will continue to focus on keeping our children safe and securing our schools, fixing our broken mental health system, and prosecuting violent criminals to the fullest extent of the law. We look forward to working with Congress on a bi-partisan basis to find real solutions to protecting America’s most valuable asset – our children.

Attacking firearms and ignoring children is not a solution to the crisis we face as a nation. Only honest, law-abiding gun owners will be affected and our children will remain vulnerable to the inevitability of more tragedy.

Do Wayne Pacelle’s Initials Also Stand for Witness Payoff?

Big news came out over the holidays when the ASPCA announced that it would pay Feld Entertainment, owner of the Ringling Bros. circus, almost $10 million to settle a federal lawsuit accusing the ASPCA and others of violating the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations (RICO) Act. It’s a crack in the defense, and we’re sure that leaders of the Humane Society of the United States—which is still a defendant in the litigation—didn’t sleep well that night.  Keep reading here…

Winchester Unveils Innovative AA® TrAAcker™: See Why You’ve Been Missing

GW:  Interesting concept.   I’ve used other tracer-type shotgun ammo for the purpose of seeing where the shots were going but I still had trouble seeing anything.  This may hold promise.

EAST ALTON, Ill. (Jan. 14, 2013) – A fired 12-gauge shotgun shell unleashes a column of shot from a shotgun barrel at about 1,200 feet per second – too fast for the human eye to see the pellets in flight. This can make it extremely difficult to master the correct lead on flying clay targets or game birds.
What if that changed? What if it was possible to track the flight of the shot string? Thanks to Winchester® Ammunition, it’s happening in 2013.

Legendary innovation at Winchester continues with the AA® TrAAcker™, the first shotgun shell to feature a weighted wad that actually tracks with the shot string. This allows the shooter or an instructor to quickly determine where the shooter is missing – making it easy to adjust and nail flying targets shot after shot. Read more
