Colonel Oliver North to become the President of the National Rifle Association of America     Carrie’s Take Aways   The attack on the NRA and our second amendment unlike anything we have seen before. Those opposed to our Second Amendment Rights are coming at us from every direction in a complex and sophisticated attack with unlimited funding. The midterm elections this year are not just important; they are critical to the preservation of our Second Amendment rights. We MUST elect pro gun candidates to maintain majorities in congress and the senate. Typically there are 20-25 seats to fill. This year there are approximately 75. One of the most important tasks of the NRA ILA is to support and work to get pro gun candidates elected. This of course takes resources of dollars and people. As you know the dollars it takes to do this in today’s elections is skyrocketing. To get 75 pro gun candidates into office is a monumental task. You must vote and we all must do what we can to financially support ILA   Donations to NRA support NRA programing, donations to ILA support political efforts.   https://donate.nraila.org/Donate       The people behind the NRA are amazing people.  The Board of Directors, the staff and the volunteers are passionate patriots.

Shoot Like A Girl was established in 2008 by the show’s guest, Karen Butler, with a mission to grow the number of women who participate in shooting sports by empowering them with confidence. The first five years focused on archery. The concept was if women could try to shoot a bow, they would love the feeling they get from shooting and join the sport. They developed a process called Test Shots™, and in five years Shoot Like A Girl put bows in the hands of nearly 3,500 women and grew the number of women archers! December 2013, Shoot Like a Girl added Firearms Test Shots™ where women can shoot a 9mm pistol, .223 rifle and compound bows in a safe controlled environment.
