Bloggers are all over the American Hunters and Shooters Association. Aside from posting a few comments on other blogs and pointing out their connections with Crime Gun Solutions, I haven't said much, because I already said it this weekend--in my latest submission to GUNS Magazine.
I owe it to the publisher not to offer essentially the same commentary on my blog that I'm asking them to send me a check for. But it's frustrating to know that by the time my article comes out, much of the same ground will have been covered on the internet for months.
A lot of great research has been independently conducted on this--I don't want to slight anybody else who's commented, but Triggerfinger and Gun Law News offer some of the best analyses.
The source I need to credit for making me aware of AHSA is NRA's Dawson at "Digger's Corner." That's what prompted me to start "digging," which included much of the same methodology used by others--the Whois lookup, finding the DCS connection, etc.
I would like to offer one insight about a front group inserting themselves into the shooting community as if they're on our side, something I like to think of as The AHSA Motto.
