"Since 2002, 85 percent of American firearm manufacturers have been forced to close their doors. Let me repeat that, Mr. Chairman. Since 2002, 85 percent of American firearm manufacturers have been forced to close their doors.
Compare that with the number of dealers that are being shut down which is nearly 80% from 1994-2005. And according to Shooting Sports Retailer Magazine the number of revocations of licenses is up nearly 6 times from 2001-2006.
Folks, the ATF is shutting down our industry. At this point it is a matter of survival, They are picking off all the small dealers and manufacturers right now and will then set there sights on the large dealers and manufacturers. I am asking for a call to arms for all of you who cherish the Second Amendment and your freedom. Where do your Congressman and Senators stand in regards to the ATF, do they feel that they have a job to do and are willing to suffer more casualties? Get your Senators and Congressman a copy of the JPFO Documentary The Gang which highlights the abuses of the ATF, then make sure that they watch it. We have personally provided copies to each of our Congressional Delegates.
