Gun Tests Magazine Ammunition Testing Protocol

GunReports.com publishes the detailed ammo-testing protocol from Gun Tests magazine, the most commonly requested addition to Gun Tests coverage. Gun Tests' focus is on performance before the bullet hits the target. 'We realize that results from our test gun can’t be extrapolated to every possible gun readers might own, we wanted to test ammunition in a fashion most consumers would be able to duplicate, and in fact, should conduct on their own. But our framework can potentially save you money and time by narrowing the list of candidates you might try in your own gun, and you can also follow our system to see if a given round performs for you like it did for us.

Gun Owners of America makes one final push against ObamaCare

(GunReports.com) — From Gun Owners of America (GOA), a non-profit lobbying organization formed in 1975 to preserve and defend the Second Amendment rights of gun owners: Write your representative one final time.

Firearms Retailer Defense Fund Launched

Firearms Retailer Defense Fund Launched

January 13, 2009

Printer Friendly | Email |

ORLANDO, Fla. -- The Firearms Retailer Defense Fund is a new non-profit corporation created to assist independent retailers with legal expenses should they need to defend themselves against industry-altering litigation.

FRDF will accept donations to help independent firearms retailers defray legal expenses they may incur to defend unfair law suits filed by municipalities, politicians or anti-gun organizations.

A legal expert in the firearms industry, Christopher Chiafullo, Esq. from The Chiafullo Group, LLP (and also an appointed member of the FRDF Board of Directors), commented: “Retailers should not feel alone when a plaintiff comes knocking on their door, and FRDF is just one of the resources that will help protect them. A plaintiff’s aim to put a retailer out of business through “bankruptcy by lawsuit” is a very real thing. Having the proper resources and industry expertise in the retailer’s corner will increase his likelihood of success when facing that seemingly impossible fight.”
