CCRKBA Blasts Party-Line Passage of Feinstein Gun Ban

3:00pm Friday, March 15, 2013
BELLEVUE, WA - Thursday's strict party-line vote by the Senate Judiciary Committee to move anti-gun Sen. Dianne Feinstein's measure banning so-called "assault weapons" was an insult to millions of law-abiding American citizens who own such firearms and have harmed nobody, the Citizens Committee for the Right to Keep and Bear Arms said. "Instead of banning the most popular firearm in the country...

Be Wary of Media Reports. We All Agree -- Let's Fix NICS

7:00am Wednesday, March 13, 2013
Be wary of a national news media in search of information they work hard to find that fits a pre-existing narrative. Ever since the tragedy at Sandy Hook Elementary School, reporters have been trying to drive a wedge between organizations that speak up for the Second Amendment. They often find support for their efforts from anti-gun organizations and politicians. After all, conflict makes news...

Number of companies refusing to sell to government entities in anti-gun states continues to grow

3:00pm Tuesday, March 12, 2013
by Jim Shepherd The number of companies announcing a formal policy of not selling to law enforcement, individual officers, states or municipalities that have passed anti-gun ordinances or laws since the tragic December shooting in Connecticut is growing - daily- and there's no sign that the trend toward "new laws mean no new products" is slowing. If anything, more companies are getting behind the...

Firearms Industry Moves - Literally, Maybe

3:00pm Tuesday, March 05, 2013
by Jim Shepherd Nearly the end of February and there's no respite in sight for Second Amendment supporters coast-to-coast. California, Colorado, New York, New Jersey, Maryland and Illinois have gotten the most ink, but only a few states don't have some gun legislation being considered. Those fights may prove considerably more costly than most anti-gun politicians seem to think. As is normally the...

Owning firearms is a First Amendment exercise, too!

7:00am Tuesday, March 05, 2013
by Alan Gottlieb Following the hysteria generated by gun prohibitionists in the wake of the Sandy Hook tragedy, a nationwide rush on gun stores began as citizens bought semiautomatic modern sporting rifles, handguns and ammunition, in effect "making a political statement" about proposals to ban such firearms. Making political statements is what the First Amendment is all about. The so-called "...

Foolish to think 'It can't happen here'

3:00pm Monday, March 04, 2013
by Thomas Lucente As the gun control debate rages on, I have taken some flak for stating, quite correctly, that the sole purpose of the Second Amendment is for the citizenry to protect itself from the government. Period. End of debate. Of course, that leads to nothing but derision from leftist gun-grabbers. The government, their argument goes, is not going to kick in your door. I suspect a few...

Consent of the Governed? Time for Long Look in the Mirror

7:00am Monday, March 04, 2013
by Paul Markel It is no stretch of the imagination that the current political climate is more divisive than it has ever been in modern times. As a nation, we have always had competing parties in our government. However, like a family that argues amongst itself, when an external threat materialized, historically we put aside partisan issues and united. That was the way our parents and grand-...

New video crushes myth about large capacity magazines, says CCRKBA

7:00am Friday, March 01, 2013
BELLEVUE, WA – A new video obtained by the Citizens Committee for the Right to keep and Bear Arms destroys the myth surrounding so-called "high capacity magazines" by proving that determined shooters using smaller capacity magazines can fire just as fast, and in some cases even faster despite having to reload. The startling video demonstration, conducted under the supervision of Boone County, Ind...
