Gun Laws
HandGunLaw.us – What state honors your carry permit? Can you carry in a Red Robin or bar when you travel? If you get pulled over, are you required to tell the officer? Do ‘No Gun’ signs have the force of law in the state you’re visiting?
Since laws around the country are always changing, this website shows the different state laws and how your permit may or may not be recognized in various states. Even if you travel to the same state a lot, check this often before travel to make sure you stay in compliance.
Gun Rights
SAF is the absolute best gun rights group. At a minimum, join SAF. If you’d like to more groups, join FPC as well. Thirdly, see if you have a good local gun rights group for your state.
SAF.org – Second Amendment Foundation has fought and won all the big gun cases in recent years. They currently have about 50 lawsuits going now to expand gun rights. Not all gun rights groups are created equal. This is the main one to join, so you’re a part of the fight.
FPC Firearms Policy Coalition. Along with SAF, FPC fights some of the biggest lawsuits in the country for more gun rights.
Legal Defense
Armed Citizens Legal Defense Network (ACLDN) – In my opinion, the best option. Over $4,000,000 in a legal defense fund, they also help to train you so you don’t need to use their services. Check it out, compare to the other options out there (many are scams), and see for yourself.
Gun Facts
GunFacts.info – How do you know if a “fact” you heard on the news is right? Sadly, there’s a lot of bad info out there and groups who promote bad info too. This website is dedicated to digging into the original numbers and stats provided by the FBI to help people debunk the bad and misleading myths.
John R. Lott Jr – An economist that was anti-gun and wanted to prove guns were bad with stats and numbers, became convinced that guns lower crime. After diving into study after study, he eventually wrote the books, “More Guns, Less Crime.” That was followed up by a number of other books that are simply amazing. Get all his books, as they are great intellectual ammunition on the war on guns.
