Any news from the NRA?

Has anyone heard anything about the NRA deciding on a location for Nationals?

Has the NRA disbanded the Silhouette Committee to direct more resources to their legislative department?

Anything at all?

The committee meets tomorrow, so we should start hearing something tomorrow evening.

That is good to know. I am very interested where SB Nationals are next year!

We found out today that the folks from Ridgway were disinvited to the meeting. This was done by Dr. Bennett at the direction of Dennis Willing. Typical NRA politics, very bad sign for our sport.
Ferret Master :(

David we'll just have to sit patiently and wait. I'm really interested in what happens to the bpcr/bptr matches and the lever guns. The bpcr matches will also have an affect on the 22 bpcr.. So patiently we wait. It'll all come out in the wash. :)

I guess we need to wait and see what nefarious plans the NRA has for our beloved silhouette sport.

Perhaps it will just be apathy towards our sport?

There may very well be some apathy from some folks, but I think our shooting sports will survive. Next week we should be getting some solid info.
