Do It Now, Avoid the Rush! HERE WE GO AGAIN: NEW MEXICO LAWMAKER PRE-FILES HB 44, RESTRICTING PRIVATE FIREARM TRANSFERS Although the New Mexico Legislature will not convene its 2015 Regular Session until January 21st, one lawmaker has already prefiled a familiar, ill-conceived gun control measure. On Friday, anti-gun State Rep. Miguel Garcia (D-Albuquerque) has re-introduced House Bill 44, legislation criminalizing non-dealer firearm transfers at gun shows and taking the first step toward a universal ban on private gun sales. Although similar measures have died in previous legislative sessions, now is not the time to let our guard down! Here is a link to the bill: http://www.nmlegis.gov/lcs/legislation.aspx?Chamber=H&LegType=B&LegNo=44&year=15 There have been a significant number of changes in the New Mexico House due to legislative retirements and results from the November 2014 General Election. State lawmakers are moving offices and their contact information will likely change, incoming members have yet to be sworn in and committee assignments may not be available for several weeks. NRA-ILA will provide you that information as it becomes available, as well as an update on which committees HB 44 is referred to and whether additional anti-gun proposals are introduced. In the meantime, please spread the word about HB 44 and the talking points below to fellow gun enthusiasts, self-defense proponents, shooting clubs and sporting organizations.

This is just the first step toward criminalizing ALL private transfers of firearms; in fact, as mentioned above, the introducedversion of HB 77 in the 2013 session did just that. No background check legislation will ever be “universal” since criminals simply ignore the law. ! It’s an ineffective crime control proposal. In April of 2013, PoliceOne conducted a national survey of 15,000 active and retired law enforcement officers of all ranks and department sizes on the topics of gun & crime control. Nearly 80 percent said that a prohibition on private non-dealer transfers of firearms between individuals would not reduce violent crime. ! Current laws are not being enforced. According to a 2012 report to the U.S. Department of Justice, more than 72,000 people were turned down on a gun purchase in 2010 because they didn’t clear a background check. Only 44 of those cases – or just .06 percent – were prosecuted. A 2013 study by Syracuse University showed that gun prosecutions had hit a decade low, down 40 percent from 2004. Existing laws are not even being enforced and proponents are calling for expanding background checks to cover private firearms transactions. ! Gun shows aren’t a source of crime guns. A U.S. Bureau of Justice Statistics survey of state prison inmates who had used or possessed firearms in the course of committing their crimes found that 79 percent acquired their firearms from “street/illegal sources” or “friends and family.” This includes theft of firearms, black market purchases of stolen firearms and straw purchases. Only 1.7 percent obtained a firearm at a gun show. ! Most importantly, because a January 2013 internal U.S. Department of Justice memorandum summarizing so-called “gun violence” prevention strategies stated that the effectiveness of “universal background checks” depends on “requiring gun registration.” Even though HB 44 currently contains prohibitions on the development of a state or local registry of gun buyers, supporters of the bill are likely to eventually claim the need to repeal these important protections in order to enforce its provisions.

Just do it! Installation of the new storage container for the shotgun range happened on November 19th. The container will be used to store clay targets. The ability to store large volumes of targets allows Zia to keep the activity shoot prices quite low. Thanks goes to Frank Shoemaker and John Winder who were a big help in getting this accomplished. nd in ! e s al t to w e e g n r ’t fo rship re n o D m be e m your For ale Eley Tenex $150/500, $275/1,000, $500/2,000 Bausch & Lomb Ray-Ban shooting glasses @ half-price aviator frames, yellow lenses, hard case, nearly mint condition $85 Bill Swantner 856 6863 S&H Instruction LLC Steve & Heidi Chowning NRA Certified Instructors • Competition Shooters NM Concealed Carry Classes Gun Safety, Handling & Marksmanship Group & Private Lessons Ladies Classes Available For More Info Contact Us At: (505) 897-6700 [email protected] Trap Results December 6, 2014 Members are expected to pick up their own trash, used targets, spent cases, etc. and place them in the receptacles provided.

Contact John at [email protected] 877-004 Wild Bird Flush With fall in the air and winter knocking on the door, bird hunters might be envisioning fields of wild birds flushing. Days of wild birds flushing are truly cherished since they are not always easy to come by. Yet don’t despair bird hunters, Zia has now added a shotgun game called “Wild Bird Flush”. Wild Bird Flush is an instinctive shotgun shooting game in which a team of up to 5 shooters are challenged by having multiple clay birds thrown at one time; with as many as 7 clays thrown at once. As a round of 125 birds progresses, the number of multiple clay birds thrown at once increases. For a bird hunter they may start to day dream of being in the field with wild birds flushing in all directions; incomer, out goers, a crosser and one landing. Bird hunters & shot gunners, the next Wild Bird Flush will be on January 3, 2015. Watch for the announcement in Zia’s activity calendar and come on out to enjoy Zia’s latest shotgun activity. Contact Lindsey Evans, Shotgun Activity Chairman (299-6888) for additional info.
