This is THE MOST IMPORTANT program we, as responsible gun owners, can do. It is the most effective way we can make a difference for our current and future rights to shoot on pubic land.
This Target Shooter Information Program was designed to have a positive effect on how people treat public land, our natural resources and our freedom to use the land for recreational shooting. It reaches people with direct communication, one-on-one, while they are there to recreate. It opens eyes to the reality of the the problems. It prompts consideration of ethics and conduct. It encourages responsibility and fosters team spirit. It speaks a positive message to shooters, non-shooters and non-gun owners that we are supporting, not only our kind of recreation but, a healthier recreation for all (including the forest).
The info booth is not a pushy sales person at a mall kiosk booth. It's not a door to door solicitor trying to make a sale. We don't go around putting fliers on windshields in parking lots. Our booth people are not sales people. We welcome anyone, who is interested in what we're doing, to stop and visit the booth. We offer support, encouragement, free stuff and help direct to good/safe/legal places to shoot. No prior booth experience necessary. Just listen, answer and help.
Our message, from the booth, may only reach 30 to 40 people on a Saturday, but it spreads to many more. People talk. Vendors support. Word spreads. And it becomes known that Northwest Firearms members are leading this effort. Those who hear, appreciate.
It's half way through June. We've missed a lot of opportunities. If we care about our kind of recreation, weather you do in on public land or not, it's time to join in and help be a part of a real good thing.
Thanks All!
