This Week in Guns 469 – The NFA’s Potato Problems

This Week in Guns 469 – The NFA’s Potato Problems

This Week in Guns 469 – The NFA’s Potato Problems

I think there's a lot of them.

Firearms Radio Network (All Shows)
This Week in Guns 469 – The NFA’s Potato Problems

They're asking for, you know, basically injunctive relief that the judge stopped the foundation from engaging in what it calls unfair competition against

including promoting or advertising the foundation's associations with the NRA under the NRA's logo.

NRA Foundation is sought to be enjoined from engaging in conduct or advertising that leads people to believe that its activities are sponsored, endorsed, or authorized by or associated or connected with the NRA.

That's...

Firearms Radio Network (All Shows)
This Week in Guns 469 – The NFA’s Potato Problems

really funny.

Firearms Radio Network (All Shows)
This Week in Guns 469 – The NFA’s Potato Problems

Firearms Radio Network (All Shows)
This Week in Guns 469 – The NFA’s Potato Problems

It's, uh, not really my monkey or circus, but they have been doing some really good work.
