Trump to Speak at NRA Forum, First President to Do So Since 1983

Carrying inside the main hall will probably be fine still.

If the NRA allow's the Secret Service to circumvent the GA law and the 2nd amendment right that we all pay them to support....then there will be a total meltdown of membership here in Georgia.....I for one will absolutely never renew my membership. We are now in a "perfect storm" ...Let's see if the NRA bows down to the Government.........

Ya do realize that federal law allows them to do this?

18 U.S. Code § 1752

Don't like it? Get Federal law changed.

Please don't.

Yeah, after hearing back from them, I probably won't even carry down there since I do plan on going to the leadership conference.

Honestly, I'm going for the main floor and to see the stuff and check out vendors. There may be a few sessions I go to, but the big events like this I'm OK with watching in YouTube or something.

I'm guessing last year would have been the same scenario there, since you had multiple candidates there and at least one Senator.

MY 3 day passes FINALLY came and now even Jynx wants to go to the NRA Convention.

Got mine the other day as well.

Kind of surprised it's just a printed piece of paper. I expected a badge like you get a trade shows...

Same. I thought that was just a flyer... was looking for a way to call and tell them they only sent holders.. and not badges!

If anyone wants me to hold their firearms while they attend the conference, let me know.



All joking aside, I wonder if they have lockers or anything?
