Restrictive Gun Show Amendment Defeated in Minnesota!

Friday, May 15, 2009


On Wednesday, May 13, an amendment was offered to HF 1132, to severely regulate the sale of firearms at gun shows in Minnesota. This attack was defeated on the House floor by a vote of 91 to 41.

The amendment, sponsored by anti-gun State Representative Michael Paymar (DFL-64B), would have forced all private sales at gun shows to go through a background check. Representative Paymar and gun prohibitionists falsely claimed that many criminals get guns from gun shows, but the most recent federal study puts the figure at only 0.7 percent. This effort was merely a stepping stone for anti-gun advocates seeking to ban all private sales, even among family and friends.

We would like to thank State Representative David Dill (DFL- 06) and all NRA members who worked hard to defeat this anti-gun amendment. Please be sure to stay tuned to www.nraila.org for current state and federal legislation.

Squeeze trigger, BANG, repeat. Kind of boring, but I never cared for drama.
