An easy way to send a letter to your representatives

General silencer discussion. If you want to talk about a specific silenced rifle or pistol, it is best to do that in the rifle or pistol section for that brand.

All NFA laws apply.

Nice, I am guessing that Ruger Jr. now running the show has chosen to be on the right side of all attempted "civilian disarmament" issues. It has taken Ruger (the brand) years to wipe off the stain of the late Ruger Sr.'s treachery in regards to the 1994 gun ban.

It's a nice gesture, but I have been told by an actual Congressman that e-mail and form letters are the least-regarded method of communication. They're sort of just counted up by staffers and treated like polling data, more or less. Phone calls are second-lowest, physically-mailed-in letters may occasionally actually be read, and in a bizarre admission of how backwards and outdated our government is, faxed letters are the most likely to be read. Of course, I was told this almost ten years ago, so that may have changed. But since then, I have recently read that e-mail campaigns still aren't considered interesting. No mention was made of telegrams or smoke signals.

Ten years ago...I guess go back in your shell and disregard, some of us feel the need to do what we can. :roll:

The most effective way to get representatives' ears is to
raise monies loudly and openly, mentioning their names
for removal from office, and getting fire brands to run against
them.

Beware of the slithering Harry Reid, and his ilk, whom the NRA
gave funding to, believing his phony bleating that he was
for the Second Amendment when he feared losing his election.
Now it is " ... fooled you again, dummies."

And, a pox ( the clap) on each and everyone of those 3 million Republicans
who stayed home during the last election. [ Imagery of them
taking turns lying face up under George Soros's potty seat. :) ]

Ten years ago was just when the conversation took place.

I write letters all the time. Mostly about the FairTax, though.
