Help Support Real Economic Stimulus, With Montana's Rep. Rehberg

WASHINGTON, D.C. – Montana’s Congressman, Denny Rehberg, sponsored legislation to compel the State Department to allow the importation of 857,470 lawful M1 semi-automatic rifles into the United States. The rifles were relics from the Korean War, which are being sold by South Korea in an effort to raise money for its military. These rifles would be made available to the public as well as to museums and historical societies.


“Whether it’s importing legal rifles or blaming legal firearms sales for the violence of Mexican drug criminals, this State Department has appointed itself as the spearhead of regulatory gun control in America,” said Rehberg, a member of the Second Amendment Task Force. “Americans should not apologize for our freedom. We shouldn’t feel bad for insisting that our government respects our rights. And we absolutely should not be allowing the Administration to restrict the importation of legal guns on the whim of an anti-gun bureaucracy.”

In its decision to block the importation of these rifles, the State Department claimed that the M1’s “could potentially be exploited… for illicit purposes.” Possession of these firearms by Americans is lawful, and purchasers would have to be approved through the National Instant Check System used for all domestic firearms purchases.

Over 850,000 rifles,......ONE has MY NAME ON IT!!!!!! ;D



Thomas Jefferson: The strongest reason for the people to keep and bear arms is, as a last resort, to protect themselves against the tyranny of government. That is why our masters in Washington are so anxious to disarm us. They are not afraid of criminals. They are afraid of a populace which cannot be subdued by tyrants."
Col. Jeff Cooper.

The second one is mine. ;D I traded my M1 carbine with no regrets (thouugh now new ammo might provide some, as some decent SD ammo is hitting the market :-\). That said, give me a a Garand at a reasonable price and I am all over it.
FQ13 whoh hopes to have THE battle rifle in his closet if the deal goes through. ;)

Rehberg announced last Saturday that he will be running against Sen. Tester for his seat in 2012. Tester has a hard election in front of him. He has just told the State assembly that he is proud and stands by his voting record, yes on Stimulus, yes on Obama care. Me thinks he just shot himself in the foot as most Montanans were against all of these programs. Buy the way, Obama did not win in Montana. GOOD BY TESTER ;D
