Tomorrow, the Maine House is scheduled to vote on Legislative Document 1000, which would establish a firearm range safety group within the Department of Inland Fisheries & Wildlife. This legislation is the first step in undermining Maine’s strong range protection laws. Please contact your State Representative and ask them to OPPOSE LD 1000.
CLICK HERE TAKE ACTION!
LD 1000Â directs the Department of Inland Fisheries & Wildlife to establish a working group to review firearm range safety and access to firearm safety information in the State. This legislation is the first step towards rolling back important shooting range protection laws in Maine. Shooting ranges provide a safe environment for law-abiding individuals to learn, practice, and train. They should not be regulated out of existence.
Again, please contact your State Representative and ask them to OPPOSE LD 1000!

This is Maine people!!! Who would have believed it could happen here? The cancer is spreading and if we don’t wake up and stop saying it can’t happen here, we will have lost our 2nd Amendment.
They should be offering a tax credit for firearms training expenses and funding public ranges where such training can be obtained.
There is no other organization that fights for public and private land shooting rights other than the NRA. They also do good work with hunting access. They should focus on those things as well as fighting lead ammo bans.
