The AmmoLand News team swept up the most award wins at this past weekend's Gun Rights Policy Conference with two Defenders of Liberty winners.
The Gun Rights Policy Conference (GRPC) is an annual get together of the leaders from all parts of the 2A community and was held at the Sheraton Crescent Hotel in Phoenix, AZ 85021. It is co-sponsored by SAF and CCRKBA. This year had a record turnout of attendees including hundreds of Second Amendment activists and experts from across the country.
AmmoLand News' own Dean Weingarten was the big winner of the 2019 Defender of Liberty award for his unrelenting coverage of local, state, federal and international news or events related to our right to keep and bear arms.
Dean Weingarten is also our resident expert on bear-defense with dozens of articles on the subject on AmmoLand News. Dean has been writing with AmmoLand since 2013 with a record 1360+ articles covering everything from politics to gun buybacks, to international defense with a gun, to hunting in Australia. His knowledge and dedication to defending our Second Amendment is unquestionable, and he is an excellent example of the best-of-the-best 2A writers that share the pages of AmmoLand News.
AmmoLand News Founder/Editor-in-Chief, Fredy Riehl, was also on the podium and is now a two-time award winner.

I have written and published over 3,000 articles at this time. Over 1,300 at AmmoLand, about 1,000 at The Truth About Guns, and about 650 at various other publications from The American Rifleman, Jews For the Preservation of Firearms Ownership, Fiocci USA, Concealed Nation, and others.
I much appreciate the award at the Gun Rights Policy Conference, but I appreciated most what Fredy Riehl, publisher and owner of AmmoLand, told me the day before.
Fredy said I was the most read gun writer on the Internet.
I asked editor Dan Zimmerman of The Truth About Guns what he thought of that assessment.
He told me it was likely true.
I hope it is. It is a difficult thing to measure.

You’re awesome, and well deserved, kudos. Great to have you posting here at Free Republic.
BTW I did speak with my local officers to see if they knew any scuttlebutt about the Conyers (Atlanta area) DGU story, and they basically didn’t know anything more than we do. We are a good ways away across the metro area.
