NRA Legal Update

NOVEMBER 2014 Ninth Circuit Panel Rules that Localities Must Allow Option for Carrying Firearms Outside the Home Long-suffering California gun owners received some rare good news in February when a three-judge panel of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit recognized a right to bear arms outside the home. In its decision in the NRA-backed case of Peruta v.

As Congress readied bills demanding passage of the long-delayed (and now far-more-expensive) $8-billion pipeline with the President away in Asia, a confrontation loomed.

NRA: ‘Absolutely No Scenario’ Where We Endorse Harry Reid in 2016 On November 12, the NRA told Breitbart News there is “absolutely no scenario” in which they would endorse Senator Harry Reid (D-NV) in 2016.
