Hello Friend,
This week, the National Shooting Sports Foundation (NSSF) returns to the Las Vegas strip, ground zero of the worst mass shooting in modern US history, for its annual SHOT Show. Adding insult to injury, the largest manufacturer of ghost guns, Polymer80, will be at booth 10030 during the event. Even the Mall of America alleged shooter had a Polymer80 handgun with him at the time of his arrest.
Ghost guns have become the premiere gun choice for those who cannot pass a background check. These guns are cheap, easy to purchase, and difficult to trace. It is no surprise that they have increasingly been involved in violent crime across the country. Polymer80 is even facing lawsuits concerning their role in manufacturing and marketing these guns. Despite all of this controversy, the National Shooting Sports Foundation seems to have no issue assisting Polymer80 in continuing their sales. This should be no surprise given their opposition testimony to Assembly Bill 286, an effort to ban ghost guns in Nevada in 2021. It’s time for Nevadans to say we don’t want this show and this manufacturer in our backyard. Solutions to gun violence are plentiful but bad actors continue to push these weapons despite the consequences to our community safety. Can you help spread the word by using the links above to share your disapproval of the 2022 SHOT Show featuring ghost gun dealers? Your voice does make a difference! Best, Amber
