Earlier today, Simon's Gun Ban on the sale and possession of 80% receivers passed the House of Delegates and now heads to the Senate.
Our best chance to kill the Ban will happen in the Senate, but unless you act, we cannot stop it.
Thanks to your efforts, we were able to flip several Democrats into voting against the bill, and even Delegate Carrie Coyner (R-62), who voted FOR the Bill in the Firearms Sub- Committee, voted against it on the floor!
You can click here for the Roll Call Vote to see how your Delegate voted.
Since the founding of Virginia, self-made firearms have been legal.
For those who don't know, an 80% receiver is not considered a firearm under Federal Law, and it is legal for anyone who can own a firearm to purchase one of these receivers and finish it themselves.
This is yet another effort by the anti-gun nuts to turn citizens into criminals. Not only that, but by eliminating the sale and possession of 80% receivers, completed or not, this is nothing but a full bore effort for complete and total firearm registration lists.
And we all know registration lists are confiscation lists.
Privacy is the number one reason people purchase 80% lower receiver kits. Because the kits are not functional weapons until further tooling, they do not have serial numbers, so they are not registered in any way. And like the 2nd Amendment clearly states, the right to own and build your own custom firearm shall not be infringed!
There are vital actions you must take right now to Stop House Bill 2276..can we count on you?
You need to call the following members of the State Senate Judiciary Committee and demand they VOTE NO, regardless of any amendments that put lipstick on the pig that is House Bill 2276!
You see, many times Senator Tommy Norment, while claiming to be a conservative, has supported anti-gun efforts. This is why it is VERY important that you call him first at 804-698-7503. Norment has schemed many times with the gun grabbers, and he must be told that he must vote NO, and even more importantly, not try to 'put lipstick on the pig' and make the bill 'better'.
Because, quite simply, this Gun Ban may fail as it is, but if hapless 'Republicans' make it less onerous, it will allow so called moderate Democrats to vote for it, and it will pass!
Over the next few days, we will be rolling out thousands of calls to gun owners in the Commonwealth, urging them to contact these state Senators and tell them to vote NO on House Bill 2276.
But we need your donations to do so.
If so, please click and donate $100, $50 or whatever you can afford. You see, for each $50 donation, we can call over 1,700 fellow patriots! Can we count on you to help us?
We cannot succeed without your help, which is why you must call the following State Senators right now and demand they vote no on House Bill 2276!
Tens of thousands of law-abiding Virginians will become felons instantly if this Gun Ban passes. We simply cannot let that happen.
But without your support, it will pass. I know for some of you donating $5000 to stop the gun grabbers is easy, while for others $50 is a stretch. But without your donations, we cannot win. You see, donations are ammunition in politics, and the gun grabbers have millions of out of state big dollar donations.
We count on you.
This is why I am asking you today to donate whatever you can afford by clicking here. Every single dime will be used to fight to stop the gun grabbers and House bill 2276. Can we count on you?
With your help, we were able to Stop Northam's Semi-Automatic Gun Ban, not only in 2020, but also during the Special Session of 2021.
Will you help us do so again?
