We are in the middle of a fierce fight to keep our rights to bear arms. The only people that are responsible for keeping these rights are the citizens of this great nation. Over the past few weeks, we have seen firearm manufacturers step up and take a stand for citizens in the state of New York. Their stance is simple; they will not sell or ship firearms, ammunition or accessories to any government, law enforcement or first responders. With that said, it is our time to use the power of social networking in order to reach out to the larger manufacturers that supply the majority of these firearms and accessories to these departments. Once they take the stand with the others, waves will be made and policies will need to be removed.

SAMPLE LETTER

Dear Firearm Manufacturer,

We are in the midst of an increasing number of negative impacts on our 2nd Amendment Rights.

As you are aware, the political landscape dealing with gun control has caused outrage across the nation. States such as NY have already passed very restrictive legislation that takes many rights away from law abiding citizens such as myself.

In the recent weeks, many firearms and ammunition manufacturers have come forward and made public statements that they will no longer be selling or shipping their firearms and accessories to any Goverment, Law Enforcement or First Responders that are located in the states that have passed these new, very restrictive gun laws. Their stance on these laws is simple; if the citizens of that state or area cannot legally own certain firearms and accessories, then the Government, Law Enforcement and First Responders should not have access to them either, under the new legislation. These companies include: Olympic Arms, Inc., York Arms, Cheaper Than Dirt, Templar Custom, LaRue Tactical, MidwayUSA, as well as many others.

This list is sure to grow over the coming weeks, and I encourage you to follow their lead and take a stand with us to fight for the rights of every single law-abiding citizen of the United States of America.

Thank you for your time and consideration. I hope that you will join our fight and stand beside us.

Sincerely, Your Name Here
