\"NSSF:<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

By Joe Bartozzi<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Last week, from the Democratic primary debate stage, former Vice President Joe Biden said we were the enemy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cOur enemy is the gun manufacturers, not the NRA, the gun manufacturers,\u201d Biden said<\/a>.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Not a single candidate on stage that night, or the night before, condemned the remark. Their silence is tacit agreement. Not a single candidate had the courage to name the violent criminals as the problem or the fortitude to stand up to those who prey upon the vulnerable in our society. Instead, they are blaming us as an industry and the law-abiding gun owners we serve.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is what we\u2019re up against in the coming election season. It\u2019s indicative of how much the landscape has changed and the lengths elected officials will go to score points.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Firearms Industry is America<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

National Shooting Sports Foundation\u00ae<\/sup>\u2019s members need to know what their trade association is up against and what we\u2019re doing. It\u2019s going to be a struggle and there\u2019s no room for anyone to be on the sidelines. We will need all member companies to be engaged and ensure our industry is able to conduct the lawful business of providing firearms to the more than 100 million law-abiding American gun owners in every state for legal use, including recreational shooting, hunting and self-defense.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Every Democratic candidate is now gunning for an industry that supports<\/a><\/strong> 312,000 jobs earning $15.7 billion in wages and has a total economic impact over $52 billion. The firearms industry is an integral economic contributor, having paid more than $6.8 billion in total taxes in 2019 alone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The firearms industry is the fabric of America. These are American jobs in every corner of the nation. Our industry is the \u201cArsenal of Democracy,\u201d a phrase coined by Democratic President Franklin D. Roosevelt, supplying the firearms that our armed forces and brave men and women of law enforcement use to protect our nation and keep our communities safe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Confiscation Rhetoric<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Candidates on the stage, including former Vice President Biden, agreed with the far-fetched notion of mass confiscation of firearms, a plan first proposed by Congressman Eric Swalwell (D-Calif.). Biden said, \u201cI would buy back those weapons.\u201d That plan would use the tax dollars paid by law-abiding gun owners to confiscate the more than 16 million modern sporting rifles in private ownership today under threat of criminal penalty for noncompliance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sen. Amy Klobuchar (D-Minn.) defended<\/a><\/strong> firearms confiscation as legal. \u201cThat\u2019s not confiscation,\u201d she said. \u201cYou would give them the offer to buy back the gun,\u201d without reference to criminal penalties.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But we already have a template of what it looks like when a government would make criminals of lawful citizens because they don\u2019t like the guns they own. New Zealand is attempting confiscation now and just 37<\/a><\/strong> of the 1.2 million semiautomatic firearms were surrendered because gun owners there don\u2019t trust the government to protect them or pay them fair market value.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Failed Technology<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Biden\u2019s firearms industry animus went further. He would bar all firearms sales, except those equipped with \u201cbiometric\u201d authorized-user technology.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cNo gun should be able to be sold unless your biometric measure could pull that trigger,\u201d he explained.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here\u2019s what most forget. NSSF was at the table with Vice President Biden when he sought these answers before. He was named<\/strong><\/a> by President Barack Obama in 2012 to lead a gun control task force that proposed 23 executive actions<\/a><\/strong>, including exploring \u201cgun safety technologies.\u201d The National Institutes of Justice studied<\/a><\/strong> the technology to \u201cunlock\u201d guns and after investing $12.6 million for research over 15 years, \u201cnone were successful.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In fact, a recent survey found just five percent<\/strong><\/a> of gun buyers would consider buying a \u201csmart-gun.\u201d A further 70 percent said they would never consider it for fear of failure when it\u2019s needed most. A gun, especially when used defend lives, must work as intended without fail or flaw. This technology doesn\u2019t exist.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the wake of the Newtown, Conn., tragedy, the National Shooting Sports Foundation\u2019s President and CEO Steve Sanetti met with Vice President Biden who singled out NSSF\u2019s Project Childsafe<\/strong><\/a>\u00ae<\/sup> program that has distributed over 38 million gun safety kits including gun locks through 15,000 police agencies in every U.S. state and territory.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He said then, \u201cYou guys are doing a lot of good things, including the gun lock thing, and this isn\u2019t just Joe Biden blowing smoke. I mean it.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

NSSF in Action<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

We know now today\u2019s reality is every Democratic candidate views firearms ownership as unacceptable. The lines are clearly drawn.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

NSSF is ready. We refuse to stand by while politicians smear the very industry that provides the means to exercise the freedoms. The firearms industry is among the most- highly-regulated industries and we won\u2019t be a convenient punching bag for misleading talking points.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We are aggressively pushing back in the media. We are not ceding an inch of ground whether that\u2019s on the national debate stage or special sessions<\/strong><\/a> called by Virginia Gov. Ralph Northam to push his gun control agenda that\u2019s already been rejected by the state\u2019s General Assembly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We are also informing our members of what the candidates are saying through our #GUNVOTE<\/strong><\/a> voter education program. Anyone is able to follow the updates on Twitter<\/a><\/strong> and Facebook<\/a><\/strong> to learn about the issues, stay informed and know how to register to vote. Get involved. Don\u2019t risk your rights.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Lastly, NSSF\u2019s Political Action Committee is engaged. We are working to support candidates for office who appreciate our industry, value our contributions to our communities and respect Second Amendment rights.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It will take all of us. Members need to get involved.\u00a0Subscribe to NSSF\u2019s alerts<\/a><\/strong>, get plugged in with the PAC and read up on what the candidates are saying through #GUNVOTE. Invite your family and friends. Our livelihood and our way of life depend on it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
