TODAY IS NATIONAL AMMO DAY--NOV. 19

One of the ways that we can help protect our 2nd Amendment rights is to observe National Ammo Day, which is today.

And the only way to observe National Ammo Day is to go out and buy some ammunition!

Let's keep gun-and-ammo manufacturers and dealers in business. The goal is for each gun owner to buy 100 rounds of ammo today. If that is impossible, at least go out and buy what you can.

Some of you may be able to buy even more than 100 rounds.
