Correct, Jack. That's why I don't think the NRA's agenda is about hunting.

But it does appear that they presume to speak for all gun owners. I know there are gun owners and pro-gun folks on this forum, -- whom I affectionately referred to as "our gun-totin' friends" -- and I wonder how they feel about that.

999, I am not talking about war-time, combat situations. I'm concerned about what happens when that hammer acquires a lobby powerful enough to force legislation that enables it to nail anybody, anywhere.
