Now if we can get these same states to follow suit with Montana and pass a bill stating Federal Firearms Laws doesn't apply to firearms and ammo made in their states! This would send a clear cut message to Washington D.C. telling them to leave our firearms a lone!!

23 State Attorneys General Tell Attorney General Holder No Semi-Auto Ban

Saturday, June 13th, 2009 at 9:41 am

Washing, DC - -(AmmoLand.com)- On June 11, the top law enforcement officials of nearly half the states signed a letter to U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder, expressing their opposition to reinstatement of the federal ban on semi-automatic firearms.


“We share the Obama Administration’s commitment to reducing illegal drugs and violent crime within the United States. We also share your deep concern about drug cartel violence in Mexico. However, we do not believe that restricting law-abiding Americans’ access to certain semi-automatic firearms will resolve any of these problems,” the letter said.
The letter notes congressional opposition to bringing back the ban, and calls for increasing enforcement of existing laws.
We encourage NRA members to let these state officials know we appreciate them standing up to the incessant clamor for gun control that is currently coming from anti-gun groups and their media allies.
