Late word yesterday that the American Wildlife Conservation Partners (AWCA) has
decided not to hold its 2013 meeting in Colorado. The decision to relocate was
prompted by “concerned messages” from the National Shooting Sports Foundation

law-abiding gun owners.
The U.S. Senate has announced that anti-gun legislation will be heard on the floor next week. While that could change at any time, right now it means that your Second Amendment freedoms are on the chopping block, and you need to take immediate action to save them. Read more
