Today, a friend and myself took the day off and drove down to Springfield to participate in the Illinois Gun Owner Lobby Day. There was a decent turnout, nearly 1,500 responsible gunowners. We spent the afternoon in and around the capital building visiting our State Representatives and State Senators. We definately made our presence known in a good way.

Everybody, it is so easy to contact your representatives and they have tereffic staff members that want to hear from us. Emails are good but phone calls and visiting their offices are even better. If by chance you are not a member of the ISRA, I got to see first hand the good that the orginazation does. A very small price to pay to be proactive in protecting your 2nd rights.
