Dear Governor Brown!

By way of introduction, Hunter Nation is a grass roots organization whose mission is to preserve and protect our Traditional American Values, including God, Family, Country, Hunting & Conservation. Although we are aware of your “anti-gun” history, some of Oregon’s current anti-gun efforts are clearly “anti-hunting” and Hunter Nation wants to voice our strong opposition to such legislation. Part of your new “gun control” push includes SB 501, that makes it a crime if a person receives more than 20 rounds of ammunition in a 30-day time period. This would prevent a person from buying a box of shotgun shells! A limit of 20 rounds of ammo per month would make it nearly impossible to sight in a gun and hunt in the same month. Would make a practice day at the range, or a day of sporting clays shooting impossible. A 20-round prohibition would make waterfowl and upland bird hunting obsolete. There are other anti-hunting components to SB 501 but this is the most glaring. Considering the long history of hunting families in Oregon we would ask you to scrap such legislation as it goes against the very Traditional Values that Oregon was founded on. Our members are opposed to this legislation and they will vote their values!

Hunter Nation
