On Monday, June 12th, the Maine Senate will be holding a floor vote on LD 22, a poorly written gun bill that could result in the end of muzzleloader sales in Maine. NRA members and gun-rights-supporting Mainers are urged to contact their lawmakers and request that they vote against the Majority Report on LD 22 to protect the sale of antique firearms and muzzleloaders in Maine. To email lawmakers directly please click the TAKE ACTION button below.

LD 22 is an overly broad bill that purports to ban straw purchases, which are already illegal under federal law. The MAJORITY report puts Maine out of alignment with federal law regarding the sale of antique firearms. This bill potentially entraps retailers and firearm dealers when they sell these antique firearms. For a state with a muzzleloading hunting season, this is of significant concern for sportsmen and sportswomen across Maine. To avoid this issue, it is critical Maine lawmakers vote AGAINST THE MAJORITY REPORT to avoid conflicting state and federal laws.

Again, please contact your State Senator and ask them to OPPOSE the Majority Report on LD 22.

I hope you’re not surprised they lied. They’re pathological liars and gun control isn’t about guns, it’s about control.

No sympathy…You deserve the Tyranny you allow. The Founding Patriots grew to understand that and chose to deal with the problem. Now those in Maine must also choose. Choose Wisely.

You would think the NRA would take the extra 2 minutes to write what the law actually does in practical terms… I’m sure it’s not a good law as no gun law is legal, but c’mon guys…

I’ve also seen someone try to fire a muzzleloader too fast and catch hot embers in the barrel. The ramrod got launched through the roof metal on the firing line. The man had to go home to change his pants.

Note to self, wear brown pants to the range.

If you’re going to report, then report with more information. “This bill potentially entraps retailers and firearm dealers when they sell these antique firearms” doesn’t cut it. Readers are going off half-cocked without any useful information.

April 19, 1775 is coming sooner than later.
