Everyone on this forum should apply...and promise to provide proper training to all adults who want a gun to protect themselves from gun violence.

I'm going to apply directly to MAIG for a research grant. I'll offer to test evil looking ammo and evil looking guns. I'll also document my 'attempts' to buy 'assault weapons' at gun shows. They can fund the whole operation.

So is the Seattle position funded or no longer funded? Did they have the position in 2011; but, no longer, due to lack of funding?

Yeah, I'm getting more intel that this was in the works since FY 2008. Still digging.
