Looks like the Mat-Su Borough is wanting to ban shooting ranges, for those of you that thought things like Virginia couldn't happen in AK, well it looks like the start of it here.

Here is the Borough's website for public comments.

This is the call to action from Northfork Supply. This is the first I have heard about this, and let's try to nip this in the bud.

If the Facebook page doesn't work, go to North Fork Supply's Facebook page and it is discussed there.

Just don't see it going over. But one never knows.

The full court press is on I think... or they are trying to see how far they can get at least.
Not only does this prevent any more gun ranges in the mat-su; but it can even stop you from shooting on your own land. Major overreach attempt.

Yes, it is a major overreach. I honestly never thought it would happen in the Mat-Su Valley, Anchorage maybe, but not the Valley. Since this is next Friday, I unfortunately won't be able as I have no leave on the books, except 8 hours and I am burning it in 2 months for the wife's surgery. I will try to make it to the last hour though and hopefully there is a good turn out.
As redneck as the valley is, it seems hard to imagine it passing...

That's what they said about Virginia.

VA ain't that redneck. They are there, but they are outnumbered.

Guess we will see exactly how liberal AK close to ANC is these days.
write em a little note; heres all you need to make a difference (maybe)

we got killed in the last election. 10 percent turnout. Were are blue throughout.
Hopefully the NRA can negotiate a compromise.

Y'all need to figure out who the enemies are on the assembly.

Hope the NRA uses all that money they saved by sitting on their hands here in Virginia.....
