WE'RE YOUR NRA RECRUITER

Stonewall Shooting Sports of Utah has partnered with the National Rifle Association of America in an effort to recruit 500,000 new members before the 2008 elections. This campaign will include many dealers, manufacturers and retail companies. We're hoping to make significant progress between now and then. At a time when our nation's Second Amendment rights are more imperiled than ever, and yet more essential than ever, we must not sit idle.

In the last few years, the NRA community has been called repeatedly into action to defend our rights, and succeeded each and every time. Through this effort, we can send a clear message and our support to the fight in Washington. Please take a moment now and sign-up.

Your benefits will include:

--Membership card and magazine subscription to "America's 1st Freedom," "American Hunter" or "American Rifleman"

--Accidental Death and Dismemberment insurance ($5,000/$10,000/$25,000), ArmsCare insurance ($1,000), and enhanced options

--More than 200 Member Discount Program affiliate products and services

JOIN or RENEW your annual membership now for just $25 (Our special discount off the regular $35 ).

UTAH GAY EVENTS (June 6-8 and 28)

--JUNE 6-8: UTAH PRIDE "COME TOGETHER" EVENTS
Utah Pride 2008 events producers published new Festival Guidelines which would ban guests who possess legally concealed or unconcealed firearms at the events. The rules seem to violate state weapon laws, and cause Stonewall Shooting Sports of Utah to advise event guests to: 1) Not attend Utah Pride 2008 events, 2) Not attend the events armed, or 3) Not attend the events uninformed about your legal rights. Please remember that Utah laws: 1) Protect the possession of i) unconcealed weapons (including firearms which can fire in two or more mechanical actions) by any person who isn't otherwise prohibited and is 18 years of age or older, and ii) unconcealed or concealed weapons (including firearms which can fire in less than two mechanical actions) by any person who isn't otherwise prohibited, is 21 years of age or older and is issued a Utah Concealed Firearms Permit; 2) Prohibit local and state government staffers including law-enforcement officers from enforcing "any ordinance, regulation, rule, or policy pertaining to firearms that in any way inhibits or restricts the possession or use of firearms on either public or private property" "[u]nless specifically authorized by the Legislature;" and 3) Prohibit the confiscation of any legal weapons except by law-enforcement officers when they detain or arrest any person who possesses such weapons, and define such illegal confiscation as "theft of property" which is punishable as a second-degree felony when the property is a firearm, or as a third-degree felony, class-A misdemeanor or class-B misdemeanor when the property isn't a firearm, and such theft as "civilly liable for three times the amount of actual damages ... and for costs of suit and reasonable attorneys' fees."

--JUNE 28: STONEWALL DAY
This international holiday on June 28 memorializes the 1969 gay-liberation riots at the Stonewall Inn bar in New York.

GO SHOOTING

Remember our simple reminder to "Go Shooting." Most of our members shoot on their own schedules already, and we encourage that. We also encourage everyone to invite others or ask to be invited to shoot in pairs or small groups as they choose. Our suggested ranges are described at our web site by clicking on the Go Shooting link. It's free to be a group member, but the costs of shooting are determined by the ranges we attend. These costs are described at the link.
