Congressman Rick Renzi (R-AZ) is about to introduce
legislation
which would force BATF to allow licensed firearms
dealers to
conduct face-to-face firearms sales nationwide.
In recent years, the BATF's overzealous enforcement
has prohibited
licensed firearms dealers from different states from
consummating
face-to-face handgun transfers.
This is despite the fact that, even from BATF's point
of view, a
face-to-face sale and transfer of a firearm by two
dealers who have
been licensed by the government would seem to be much
safer than
forcing the firearms to be shipped through dozens of
unlicensed
hands.
ACTION: Please contact your representative and ask
him to become an
original cosponsor of the Renzi legislation by
contacting
Congressman Renzi or by having a staff member call his
office. You
can visit the Gun Owners Legislative Action Center at
http://www.gunowners.org/activism.htm to send the
pre-written
message below.

Dear Representative:
Congressman Rick Renzi has introduced common sense
legislation that
will allow dealers to conduct face-to-face firearms
sales
nationwide.
He is currently seeking original cosponsors to his
bill. Please
call him at 202-225-2315 and tell him you will sign
this bill.
Thank you.
Sincerely,

In May, Gun Owners of America asked you to sign a
petition
requesting Rep. Tom DeLay to let Rep. Ron Paul offer
legislation
pulling the U.S. out of the anti-gun U.S.
The good news is the House Majority Leader Tom DeLay
listened to the
more than 35,000 petition signers and allowed Paul to
offer his
amendment -- which he did last week. The bad news is
that the
amendment lost 350-74.
You can see who voted to keep supporting the
gun-grabbing UN by
going to

on the Internet.
Please thank Rep. Paul for offering his amendment and
Rep. DeLay for
allowing the vote.
