Or how they are related to the NRA. I have read numeous articles of gun shp owners being threatened for offering safe weapons. As a life long gun owner I have no problems with tight restrictions on who can own a weapon as do the majority of my gun owning, hunter, and rancher friends. I think the NRA has used our poorly worded Constitution to line their personal pockets.
