Alert From Association For Gun Rights-
I hope you're not one of those gun owners who said, "They'll never come for my shotguns."
If you are, I'm afraid the rain is about to fall on your parade.
You see, the ATF is coming for your shotguns ... with a vengeance.
The ATF wants to ban the importation of any tactical shotgun it views as not meeting the "sporting suitability" use as defined in the Gun Control Act of 1968.
That means all they need to do is make up a bunch of "features" that don't (according to them) "fit" a sporting use of a shotgun.
It's an open door for an outright shotgun ban ... the very same shotguns that are probably in your gun safe right this minute.
This ban may seem too horrible and too outrageous to be real. But believe me when I tell you: This is no hoax.
Make no mistake: This ban will affect hundreds of gun makers who produce shotguns that are currently in use not only by law enforcement and the military in the United States but also home owners who simply want an effective home defense shotgun.
The real question is, what can you do about it? For starters, get informed about these guns.
Thanks for your support,
Dudley Brown
Executive Director
PS - The ATF is proposing to ban importation on all tactical shotguns it asserts don't have any "sporting" use. If they succeed, this will be the most dangerous interpretation of the 1968 Gun Control Act ever envisioned and will outlaw thousands of perfectly legitimate home defense shotguns.

This is all about banning the Saiga-12 semi-autopmatic shotgun, imported from Russia. There has been a lot of feature creep since the somewhat sporting version of the Saiga-12 was first imported. It's based on the same low cost and reliable AK-47 action. US aftermarket products include 20 round drum magazines, muzzle brakes, six spiked PorkyPine retractible bayonets,etc. Services sprouted up to fine tune your Saiga-12 for reliable CQB use, and they became very popular in three gun matches. The Saiga-12 kept drifting farther from hunting and more toward tactical uses.
We need to repeal the 1968 GCA. The second amendment has nothing to do with "sporting use", and we shouldn't sit still for this big government tyranny.
I agree the Second Amendment says nothing about what type of firearm a citizen is allowed to keep!
Any ban on a type of firearm is a stripping away of our freedom!
The greatest freedom we have as American Citizens is the right to defend ourselves against any kind of threat!!! We should be able to use what firearm we wish!
