Election RecapShooting enthusiasts dodged a “major bullet” during the past election by defeating Hillary as President. While there were many factors that influenced the outcome, shooter’s votes likely made a major contribution to help Donald Trump win. We must keep in mind the fact that there are many politicians who still want to ultimately enact total gun confiscation. Please do not stop being politically active based on the outcome of the November 8 election. The NRA is still our best advocate for protecting the second amendment.
