Los Angeles Backs Down, Repeals Ordinance Targeting NRA

City is the Latest Governmental Body to Face Legal Reckoning Over Unlawful Attack

The Los Angeles City Council today voted to formally repeal a controversial city ordinance requiring contractors seeking to do business with the city to disclose ties to the National Rifle Association (NRA). The decision is another legal victory for the Association, which argued that the ordinance violated its First Amendment right to free speech in court and won an injunction blocking the law.

“The same City officials who vowed to defend this ordinance are on the run,” said Jason Ouimet, executive director of NRA’s Institute for Legislative Action. “In addition to the NRA members they wronged, city officials must now answer to voters and taxpayers for their failed experiment, and explain why they recklessly subjected the city to legal and financial exposure.”

Initially approved on February 12, 2019, City Ordinance No 186000 took effect on April 1, 2019. The NRA filed suit against the city on April 24, 2019. The NRA argued that the ordinance would unjustly cut off “revenue streams necessary for the NRA to continue engaging in protected speech and association” by discouraging membership and stigmatizing business relationships and sponsorships.

The Court agreed. On December 11, 2019, U.S. District Court Judge Stephen V. Wilson granted a preliminary injunction blocking enforcement of the ordinance, stating that the NRA was likely to show that the law violated its rights and would cause irreparable harm. Read more

Hawke Optics Vantage 30 WA FFP Riflescope

Value and Extreme Performance Blend in Two New Vantage 30 Wide-Angle First-Focal Plane Scope Models

Hawke® Optics, a world leader in high quality sporting optics with outstanding performance in the field at amazing value to consumers, proudly adds new Vantage 30 WA FFP riflescopes to the line for 2020. These wide-angle, first focal plane riflescopes offer long-range accuracy and outstanding quality at a price that is easier on the budget than the competition.

With both the 4-16×50 Vantage 30 WA FFP and 6-24×50 Vantage 30 WA FFP scopes, the First Focal Plane Half Mil Dot reticle increases in size as you increase the magnification. At the lowest setting, the reticle works similar to a red-dot scope for shooting. At the highest magnification, the reticle fills the view window. This provides range-finding abilities as the Half Mil hash marks on the reticle remain true, making it easier to estimate bullet drop at longer distances. FFP scopes are generally more expensive to produce, but that’s why you will want the Vantage advantage. Read more
