The personal attacks are a bit out of place maybe? I was enjoying the discussion about the right of passage issue. Not knowing anything about the Buzz person or the BHA I was very pleased to see the courts come down on the side of the little man, the everyday citizen trying to access his property that is his by right of being a U.S. citizen.
I am fortunate to own enough property to satisfy my needs but a lot of folks aren't and as I have stated earlier I spent a 30 year career dealing with wealthy men that wanted the state to keep the "riff raff" far away from their property.
I'm wondering what the big deal is with Buzz and what difference does it make about the .243W vs. the 6mm Rem?
I think it stems from BuzzyTard being affiliated with gun grabbers.
Oh,
Hastings, don't believe Tommybot/Fibka...here is BHA's official position statement on the second:
North American Policy Statement:
Backcountry Hunters & Anglers proudly supports the individual right to keep and bear arms as guaranteed by the Second Amendment to the United States Constitution.
Does that include ARs? I am not being a smart ass. I am genuinely curious.
Lots of people and organizations ‘support’ the 2nd Amendment but have varied interpretations as to what arms the 2nd applies to and ‘assault’ rifles are front and center.
Heck, there are a few ‘staunch’ 2nd supporters here on the ‘Fire that feel restricting full auto weapons is perfectly acceptable and that the 2nd doesn’t apply.
Yes Buzz, which firearms do BHA support the keeping and bearing of?

That's it, in its entirety. And, it's 9 years old now, and given some recent events and court cases, it would be nice to know EXACLTY where they stand. In other words, what is BHA's interpretation of the Law?
Or, do they go along with whatever way the wind blows on the subject?
Do they support a California version of the right to keep and bear arms?
