And right there is the apathy of the SSAA and shooters in general...
Let others do the work. Guess what Littlejohn that is the reason we are in this mess. Apathetic people like yourself..
I am happy to register a lobby group.. Would you join. Nope you will just continue to lube up and sook about it on Internet forums..
I'm in. I've got plenty of time on my hands and would like to get more involved in getting our sport (hunting, target or collecting) looked upon as a legitimate sport.
Send me a PM with what your thoughts are.
I tried helping with S&F, but, after about 12 phone calls and a few emails, I got no response, despite them asking for volunteers.
At my local polling station, not a S&F person to be seen handing out paperwork. So, I voted Liberal Democratic Party and no longer send my monthly donation to S&F.
I live on the coast which has a lot of people fishing (tourists and locals). My locals aren't impressed with the S&F Party, so, they vote elsewhere also.
I'm not sure that the S&F has the right spokesperson working for them? Might be effective at having a debate, but, it's the minor gun groups (Amateur Pistol Assoc) doing a lot more than the SSAA from what I can see and hear from fellow range groupies.
Admittedly, I do shoot more pistol than rifle, but, I'm still a member of the SSAA and I just don't see enough action on their part.
