Dear Friends,
For those who haven't heard, in Texas a Federal lawsuit has been filed seeking to strike down the law that requires a prospective handgun purchaser must be 21 years of age or older. The goal of the suit is to establish that the same laws that currently apply to rifle or shotgun purchase and ownership should also apply when it comes to a handgun.
The following is the text of an e-mail that I received from the NRA:
"To strengthen our case, we are in need of the following:
Young people, age 18-20 who would be willing to sign an affidavit that they would like to purchase a handgun, if it were legal.
And,
FFL dealers, who would be willing to sign an affidavit that they would like to sell a handgun to a person 18-20 years old, if it were legal.
In both cases, Texas residency is not required, although it would be a plus.
These folks would not be plaintiffs, but would be supporting witnesses."
"Please contact the NRA Institute for Legislative Action (ILA) at ILAlegal@nrahq.org or call (703)267-1661 for more information.
Thank you for your support."
Any help or assistance provided will be greatly appreciated. If you have any relatives or friends in Texas who support the 2nd Amendment, please copy and paste the information above and pass it along. I'll be adding my personal support to this as well. If they win in overturning the Federal law, it could help here in North Carolina as well.
Sincerely yours,
