An Official Journal Of The NRA | From the Editor | It is Hard to Spin This

5 days ago | americas1stfreedom.org | Frank Miniter

A CBS 60 Minutes segment last February tried to put a face to President Donald Trump’s (R) new Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE). In a feat of investigative journalism, they managed to catch three DOGE employees—Elon Musk’s “nerd army”—going to work. The three men were dressed as casually as Silicon Valley wonder kids typically are as they quietly went into the building.
An Official Journal Of The NRA | Gun Skills | Reloading 4: Load Refinement

3 weeks ago | americas1stfreedom.org | Frank Melloni

By now, you’ve probably settled on reloading tools and an inaugural set of components and have likely been to the range to test your very first handloads. If you’ve followed sound advice, your rounds probably went pop and hit the paper, which is an excellent place to start. Still, handloading gives the shooter full control over the rounds they send downrange, so if you’re not 100% satisfied with the accuracy or the function of those cartridges, there are plenty of avenues for improvement.
An Official Journal Of The NRA | From the Editor | This is Making Gun-Control Groups Stark, Raving Mad

1 month ago | americas1stfreedom.org | Frank Miniter

Within the first 24 hours of President Donald Trump’s (R) inauguration, the web link for former President Joe Biden’s (D) gun-control office, which was known as the “White House Office of Gun Violence Prevention,” went dark. The gun-control group Brady had a meltdown. “By shuttering it, Trump is putting the interests of the gun lobby above our kids, our communities, and our country,” said a statement from Brady.
An Official Journal Of The NRA | Gun Skills | Reloading 3: Progressive Presses

1 month ago | americas1stfreedom.org | Frank Melloni

Once you’ve started reloading your own ammunition, you might find yourself at the range a bit more frequently. (The joke is that you don’t really save any money because you just shoot more.) If that’s the case for you, it might be time to upgrade to a progressive press. Progressive presses combine several tasks into a single stroke and can produce more than 1,000 rounds an hour in some cases.
An Official Journal Of The NRA | What Supreme Court Justices Said About Mexico’s Lawsuit

1 month ago | americas1stfreedom.org | Frank Miniter

On March 4, the U.S. Supreme Court justices heard oral arguments from opposing attorneys in Smith & Wesson v. Estados Unidos Mexicanos, a civil suit in which Mexico—with the help of U.S. gun-control proponents—is suing American gun companies for $10 billion because of violence committed by Mexican drug cartels on Mexican citizens.
An Official Journal Of The NRA | Gun Review | Mossberg 940 Pro Thunder Ranch

1 month ago | americas1stfreedom.org | Philip Massaro

The shotgun has long been relied upon as a defensive tool; even the phrase “riding shotgun” harks back to the armed guard on a stagecoach, who’d ride next to the driver to defend the vehicle. True, it’s not much use for long distances, but it can be very, very effective at home-defense distances.
An Official Journal Of The NRA | Shooting Straight With Dan Reid

1 month ago | americas1stfreedom.org | Frank Miniter

California’s 39 million residents have long been on the frontlines of the legal, legislative and cultural war over our Second Amendment-protected rights. Some of California’s gun owners have publicly spoken out as they packed up and moved to freer states. To save their businesses from the animosity of the state government, some notable gun manufacturers have also fled the state. Retreating, however, is not an option for this civil-rights association.
An Official Journal Of The NRA | Could The Washington Post Go Pro-Second Amendment?

1 month ago | americas1stfreedom.org | Frank Miniter

The Washington Post’s owner, Jeff Bezos, announced that the newspaper’s opinion section is taking a turn away from woke propaganda and could be heading to the center. “I’m writing to let you know about a change coming to our opinion pages,” Bezos wrote on X. “We are going to be writing every day in support and defense of two pillars: personal liberties and free markets.
An Official Journal Of The NRA | What DOGE Should Do To The ATF

If Joe Biden had gotten his way, the firearms manufacturers he called “the enemy” would have been reduced to only serving the government, gun stores would have been regulated into extinction and the “Necessary and Proper Clause” in Article 1 of the U.S. Constitution would have been expanded (or overlooked) to give the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) the power to rewrite gun-control laws.
