Pence was rated ‘A’ by GUNOWNERS of AMERICA’ in 2010. So he is not a newcomer to support for RKBA. Good selection in terms of Second Amendment.

That and immigration were my biggest concerns with him. If GOA ranked him that way, then it is solid. GOA doesn’t suffer from politician “grade inflation” like the squishies at the NRA.

On the gun front, I am looking for relaxation of the federal law on suppressors - they are not some evil magic, as has been the view from Hollyweird since the 1930s, they are exactly the same as a muffler on a car or motorcycle - an attempt to increase civility and lessen hearing problems. These should be utterly removed from the NFA. [Of course, I think that the entire NFA is a gross violation of the 2nd Amendment and should be repealed in its entirety, but that isn’t politically realistic - especially during a campaign - at this point. We lost the ability to freely exercise our gun rights bit-by-bit, and that’s how we will probably have to get them back. Let’s start with suppressors].

Also, I’d love to see Title 18, Section 922(o) go the way of the dinosaurs. It is absurd that one cannot buy a full auto that is less than 30 years old. My grandfathers could have (and didn’t, DAMN IT) walked into the local hardware store, plunked down some cash, and walked out with a Tommy Gun, no questions asked. A right is a right, across all periods of time and across all spaces within the country - so why can’t I do what my grandfathers could have?
