A list of the major gun bills that we are currently dealing on for the 2013 Florida legislative session can be found here. This list is only a partial list of bills -- there are many more that we must track and monitor.
There are many other bills that deal with hunting issues, hunting and working dog issues, school safety and a myriad of issues that could impact the gun and hunting rights of law-abiding gun owners.
The decision to "Support," "Oppose" or be "Neutral" is based upon the actual language of the bill AS FILED. Any changes to the bills as they move through the process could change a position entirely. We always reserve the right to change a position.
At the bottom of the list of bills is a new Unified Sportsmen of Florida membership application. If you are already a member, sign up a friend.
