It appears that pushing an extreme gun-control package is not enough to appease gun-grabbing lawmakers in Augusta. In an official letter sent to gun retailers, Kittery Trading Post and Cabela’s, over 40 lawmakers requested that these private businesses stop selling “military style” firearms. While these lawmakers provide no definition of “military style” they do clarify that they would like these long-standing businesses to stop selling semi-automatic firearms. This gross overstep by lawmakers is just the latest example of the rabid push to strip Mainers of their Second Amendment rights.
To respond to this abuse of power, the National Rifle Association, Sportsman's Alliance of Maine, and Gun Owners of Maine are holding a joint rally at Kittery Trading Post to "Save Maine Business." Details about the event are above. In addition to attending the rally, Kittery Trading Post has generously offered coupons to Second Amendment supporters who attend the event.
