I'm not sure how many remember or knew how hard Colonel Dan worked to get Team SASS up and running. There were a lot of obstacles he had to overcome; and with tenacity & determination he muscled through. When he passed the baton to me I only hoped I could do him proud. As we had traveled down this road fighting for our rights we have encountered victories and defeats, but every time we were dealt a blow we always got up, dusted ourselves off and pushed on. We as well as other 2A organizations have continued fighting in the face of what appeared to be insurmountable odds. The results thus far are 25 states with "Constitutional Carry" See below map Do you realize that is 50% - 1/2 of the country? Hooray for our side. Better news is, that more states are looking to expand individual Second Amendment rights through the rest of the year, but our work is not through. You see proponents of stricter gun rights laws have argued that different interpretations of the Second Amendment would enhance gun safety. They say it leads to lower gun-related deaths. However, when you look at the evidence, it has shown that there is not necessarily a direct correlation between more restrictive gun laws and fewer gun-related fatalities or accidents. How about an example. Let look at the city of Chicago, which has one of the strictest sets of gun laws in the country, yet they saw a massive rise in gun-related crime towards the end of 2021, and there are no signs that the city’s crime wave is slowing. Looking further at other large cities enforcing strict gun control legislation, such as Baltimore, Philadelphia, and Los Angeles, They are also seeing historic increases in crime, particularly homicides. So we are winning because of the facts even when at times it seems we are standing still or moving backwards. If you need more proof or how far we have come, take a look at State Constitutions and the Right to Arms in the previously Pined Post. Again, Colonel Dan's effort where he researched & posted each stat's 2A on their state constitution except as he noted: "California, Iowa, Maryland, Minnesota, New Jersey, and New York" do not have "right to keep and bear arms" provisions in their state constitutions. Two of those states have general provisions that protect a right to defend life and liberty: · Iowa`s constitution (Art. I, § 1) states: "All men are, by nature, free and equal, and have certain inalienable rights—among which are those of enjoying and defending life and liberty, acquiring, possessing and protecting property, and pursuing and obtaining safety and happiness." · New Jersey`s (Art. I, § 1) states: "All persons are by nature free and independent, and have certain natural and unalienable rights, among which are those of enjoying and defending life and liberty, of acquiring, possessing, and protecting property, and of pursuing and obtaining safety, and happiness." And while has changed in these states due to their political environment there have been some changes and movement due to lawsuits and public sentiment. I do have to admit that the Corona Virus helped here as our opposition saw it as a venue to restrict our rights even further and Americans being what we are said enough is enough and are now pushing back hard. In closing we need to be consistent in our efforts and rely on, as well as help each other to maintain our Second Amendment Rights. Charlie T Waite

This is a critical time for preserving not just our Second Amendment right but our other rights as well. They are trying to take away our First Amendment right which would not allow us to raise our voices in defense of the Second Amendment. Anyone paying attention knows that they try to shut you down if you don’t agree with them. It is in the open now you may have noticed the new “US Department of Homeland Security Disinformation Board”; so your help is desperately needed. Look on the Team SASS State Directors; Current Roster for your state - your name could be there. This is not a position that you receive a title and then it ends there. The role of the Team SASS State Director is to lead the effort within their state, contact and stay in touch with representatives of as many clubs as possible and enlist those who have the enthusiasm and dedication to provide motivation and coordination to local clubs or their representatives to actively contact local politicians and push our single agenda of supporting the Second Amendment. They would be the official SASS representative between their state and Team SASS HQs. They should consistently post information about their state's efforts, needs & calls to action on the Team SASS Wire. If you or someone you know is serious about fighting for America's freedom to keep and bear arms and who may be interested in being a Team SASS State Director, please reply to this posting with your alias, SASS# and email address. If you prefer not to place that information on our open forum, please email me at: charlietwaite@gmail.com. This position will not take up all of your time. You will find that the other TSSDs and I will be supportive of your efforts and will provide you guidance if you ask. I appreciate your consideration and look forward to hearing from many of you.

Absolutely, contrary to popular belief, all one needs to kill a whitetail is 700fps impact velocity for a clean shot. Where the shooter hits them and how and at what distance is up to the shooter's capability. FYI, this is a factory load of the only jacketed soft points I could find. I purchased 1 box 9-10 years ago just for hunting. I have gotten my deer every year that I have used it. and the only reason I know the stats is that is what is written on the box, I personally haven't shot them through my chronograph. I didn't say you needed that load, just that it was what I used.. With proper shot placement a shotgun even in 2 3/4" slug 410 will drop a deer.

+1 I've used a 200 Grain Soft-Point (SP) with a Muzzle Velocity of 1190 and done very well out to around 200-250 yards for white tail. 150-200 is best though. I would say 250 would be the max for this load.

Actually got it out today.

We're having a bit of a blizzard at the moment until tomorrow afternoon sometime; but will get it in the mail to you as soon as I can. More than likely Tuesday. Charlie

PM me your address & I'll get it sent out.

PM me your address and I'll send them out to you
