USA --(Ammoland.com)- “As one of the thirteen original colonies, North Carolina maintains the moral and legal concept that the right to keep and bear sporting arms is one of the fundamental privileges granted by our American Democracy,” North Carolina Governor Terry Sanford informed GUNS Magazine when asked for a public comment on his stance on the issue.

“This privilege should be infringed upon only when deemed necessary, through the will of the people in a democratic action, to insure public safety or to prescribe the manner of taking game,” he continued. “We do not anticipate any legislation abrogating these premises.”

No, but anticipate it or not, defining a fundamental right as a granted privilege subject to majority consensus on something as nebulous as “public safety” opens the door for literally anything those who want to abridge those rights can think up and manipulate public opinion on. Presumably, Gov. Sanford would also have no objection if enough voters could be bamboozled into backing a state-imposed religion or no religion at all, or prohibitions on free speech, or the lifting of them on warrantless searches or cruel and unusual punishment…

But wait a second: Terry Sanford? North Carolina’s governor is Bev Perdue. Sanford gave up that office back in ’65.

USA --(Ammoland.com)- Licensing should not be part of exercising the right to keep and bear arms, the grassroots group Georgia Gun Owners asserts in a press release issued today.

Announcing the pre-filing of the Georgia “Constitutional Carry” Act of 2012 (HB679) by State Representative Jason Spencer, the bill promises to eliminate the requirement to have a Georgia Weapons Carry License to carry firearms openly or concealed, as is currently established lawful practice in Vermont, Alaska, Arizona and Wyoming.

Per Georgia Gun Owners, the legislation will…

Mossberg 935 Magnum Turkey Gun

North Haven, Connecticut - -(ShootingWire.com)- For turkey hunters looking to step up to a high performance autoloader, Mossberg has expanded their offering and introduces two 930 Turkey guns with a new pistol grip stock, allowing greater handling and control when sighting in on Ol’ Tom.

The new Mossberg 930 turkey models are the latest iteration of the 930™ family of autoloading shotguns. The pistol grip full-length stock offers a 13″ length of pull, making it ideal for shooting from a blind, or leaning up against a tree when calling in a long beard. The 24″ ported barrel and the dual gas vent system make this compact package easy to maneuver while minimizing recoil and muzzle lift. This design enables greater versatility and better balance for the hardcore turkey hunter.

The new pistol grip 930 is extremely versatile – developed for use with 12 gauge 2-3/4″ and 3″ factory loaded shotshells…from low-brass 1 oz target loads to non-toxic, heavy hitting magnum rounds. The receiver is drilled and tapped from the factory making it ideal for red dot scopes or other optic systems. The Uni-Line receiver has a soft, angled edge that marries the receiver with the stock perfectly, providing instinctive eye/sight alignment for instant target acquisition. Another feature on this value packed autoloader is an easy-to-operate, quick-empty magazine button that unloads the shotshells from the magazine in a quick, convenient manner. All Mossberg 930 Turkey models feature XX-Full extended choke for a tight, consistent pattern and the fully adjustable front and rear fiber optic sights allow for low light shooting conditions. The new 930 Turkey with pistol grip stock is available in two configurations: Mossy Oak® Obsession® and with matte blued barrel/black synthetic stock.

The 930 Autoloader ranks as one of the best values in American-made 3″ Autoloaders on the market today – an eye catching, top-of-the-line shotgun that any hunter or shooter would be proud to own.

Mossberg 935 Magnum Turkey Gun

North Haven, Connecticut – The Mossberg 935 Magnum series has certainly taken more than its fair share of gobblers, continuing to prove itself as the pinnacle in performance for a 3 ½” autoloading shotgun. Mossberg expands this product line this year with the introduction of a pistol grip stock configuration on their 935 Magnum™ Turkey model.

The pistol grip, full-length stock offers a 13″ length of pull, which provides ease of mobility when calling in “Boss Tom.” The dual gas-vent system releases excess gas to aid in recoil reduction and eliminate stress on operating components making for a rugged and reliable turkey gun.

Developed for use with 12 gauge 3″ and 3-1/2″ factory loaded shotshells, the 935 Magnum comes from the factory with a 22″ overbored barrel. Unlike other brands, which offer “backbored” barrels, Mossberg’s overbore design spans the entire length of the barrel, providing a gas cushion for the shot charge. Not only does this reduce felt recoil, it reduces pellet deformation and internal friction. The result is exceptionally uniform, dense shot patterns that Mossberg models are known for. Couple this with Mossberg’s X-Factor™ Ported Tube, and you have the recipe for a tasty turkey dinner.

Drilled and tapped from the factory, the receiver is ready to accept bases for red dot scopes, or other optic systems. Another feature on this value packed autoloader is an easy-to-operate, quick-empty magazine button that unloads the shotshells from the magazine in a quick, convenient manner. The fully adjustable front and rear fiber optic sights make for rapid target acquisition in low light shooting conditions. The pistol grip 935 Magnum Turkey is available in Mossy Oak® Obsession®.

NJ Gun Ban Vote - On Monday, November 17, the New Jersey Assembly is scheduled to vote on A2116, legislation banning most firearms over .50 caliber.

Though previously amended in an attempt to address gun owner concerns, the legislation would still ban virtually all firearms over .50 caliber, including many popular modern day muzzleloaders. A2116 is so poorly drafted that it would even outlaw firearms manufactured during the Revolutionary and Civil War eras and their modern day replicas.

Instead of targeting criminals, A2116 singles out law-abiding gun owners and punishes them by banning their guns.

Please contact your Assembly Members IMMEDIATELY and respectfully urge them to oppose A2116. Their contact information can be found by clicking here.
