While at the SHOT Show, I walked 31.5 miles looking for products that might be of interest to our members. After the first day everything was done in the exhibition hall so I was not able to do any live fire. Still, you can get a good idea of products simply by handling them or watching demonstrations.

As you may or may not know, Michael Bloomberg and the New York State Attorney General have been pressuring financial institutions and credit card companies to stop doing business with gun companies and those who use credit cards to purchase firearms. In some cases, even firearm training schools have been shut off. You are probably aware the National Rifle Association had its credit card program canceled by the hosting bank.
We actually don’t care what Michael Bloomberg or his financial thugs think. The Illinois State Rifle Association is fighting back. On February 1, 2020, the ISRA will launch an exciting new credit card for members only. We are teaming up with Services Credit Union (SCU) to bring you a powerful financial tool to help you reach your financial goals. The ISRA Credit Card is available to all active members of the ISRA and offers you:

I have been warning everyone about Michael Bloomberg and how dangerous he is to the Second Amendment and our gun rights. Bloomberg has just announced he is going to pour a billion dollars into his presidential campaign. I don’t think Bloomberg expects to be elected, I think he wants to reshape the United States which would include banning firearms to individuals like you and me. He will pour hundreds of millions into anti-gun commercials. The Executive Directors of the Texas State Rifle Association told me that in November and December, Bloomberg established 16 new offices in Texas. This is not just rented space. These offices are fully equipped and staffed and aimed at destroying the Second Amendment. If that is happening there, it is happening everywhere.
