He took it the issue and worked with the NRA and GOA and got a bill passed which those pro-gun groups were able to endorse. Due to his efforts, gun restrictions were loosened in MA, not tightened. It was the best case scenario in a state like that.

Your statement is incorrect- He worked with the NRA and GOAL (Gun Owners Action League) *not* the GOA (Gun Owners of America).

Here is what the GOA has to say about Mitt's bill:

What we do know is that even in Massachusetts, Romney has tried to appease both sides of the aisle. As governor, Romney supported legislation to ease restrictions on gun licensing in the state, but he only did so at the expense of gun rights, as he signed a draconian ban on common, household firearms that are owned by millions of Americans across the nation.

This is kind of like the thief who sticks a gun in your ribs and demands $100, but then gives you $25 back to "soften" the blow.

GOA on Mitt Romney

Gun Owners of America (GOA) doesn't have much good to say about Mitt Romney at all.

Gun Owners of America on all the candidates

And they have glowing things to say about McCain, Rudy, Hillary and Obama? I think not. Those are the choices. Only a minority of people make their final decision based on one issue anyway. Thankfully.

Mittens

"I strongly support the Second Amendment right of Americans to keep and bear arms. I am proud to be among the many decent, law-abiding men and women who safely use firearms.

I firmly believe in the importance of responsible gun ownership and sales. As a member of the National Rifle Association, I do not believe that we need any more federal gun control laws. I also recognize that some types of extreme weapons, those which were not meant for hunting, sport, or self-defense, have no business being on the streets. "
