Hi Folks,
I’ve had lots of good questions about the event. I hope I can clear most of them up here.
1) What weapons are acceptable?...
Answer: Any semi-automatic rifle is acceptable. Including AR-15, AR-10, AK’s, SKS, 1022, FAL, HK. etc.
2) Are large capacity pre-ban magazines ok?
Answer: This event is about taking a stand for a class of weapons, we have the right to own and use. A right granted by God and protected by our 2nd Amendment.
We will have news coverage, and I want to stay focused on the weapon and not the magazines for this event.
Please bring detachable magazines of 10 rounds. Feel free to bring many.
3) Can we bring black customized rifles with rails and attachments?
Answer: I encourage those types of weapons! Again, I expect some sort of media coverage. Rails are no more than accessory mounts. They longer, shiny and have sharp edges, with things hanging off. I would like the opportunity to review some of those things regularly mounted on the rails. Lights-illuminate your target and surroundings making for a safer shot. Holographic sights - make for easier safer target acquisition in lighted areas. Red dot / green dot lasers - show the exact point of impact on the target or elsewhere; in well lit and low light conditions. Because this type of sight gives the shooter instant feedback as to the bullets impact, it is probably one of the safest options of all! This is especially true for a less experienced shooter.
Lastly the flip up or offset metal sights. The ultimate redundant failsafe. Should any of the higher technology systems fail, the solid steel sights will always be there for accurate shot placement that is much safer than simply pointing and squeezing the trigger.
All the things that make these weapons look scarier, actually make them safer; especially in the hands of someone who can’t readily practice.
4) Can I bring other shooters or 2nd Amendment supporters?
Answer: yes. All pro-gun advocates are welcome. There will be places to congregate, network, and enjoy the show.
Only licensed shooters will be allowed on the firing line.
5) Are children welcome?
Answer: As much as we believe children are important to the future of firearm ownership; we don’t believe this is the proper venue.
6) What is the exact location?
Answer: the exact location will be provided several days before the shoot. Many people in the group already know the location. Communicating more details outside this group is encouraged. Obviously word will get out to an anti gun crowd. I don’t want to give them time to organize a disruption.
The location is within 10 minutes of Rochester Center.
I hope this helps. Please feel free to ask questions, share information, and keep an open dialogue.
God Bless the United States of America
