I would like to introduce the new Nebraska Firearms Owners Association and our website: http://www.NebraskaFirearms.org/. Our
membership is open to all types of firearms owners as long as you are a
resident of the state of Nebraska. Whether you are a trap shooter, long
range rifle shooter, concealed handgun permit holder, NFA firearms
enthusiast or any other group of firearms owner you are welcome to join
our organization. The best thing about our organization is that
membership won't cost you anything!
We are local firearms
owners who have a personal interest in representing firearms owners
rights in Nebraska. While there are much larger firearms owner groups
and lobbyists, we have a personal stake right here in fighting for our
rights. We don't have big money to fly in lobbyists from the coasts, we
don't have the money to wine and dine Legislators, we are just everyday
normal Nebraska residents like you who want our voices to be heard by
the various law makers. Best of all, we will not send you any mailings
begging for money like the large national firearms owner groups. We
will operate on a low budget and make due with what money is donated to
us voluntarily.

As a member of NFOA you have the
opportunity to vote on the position our organization will take on
firearms related laws that can impact us all. On our website we have a
forum with lots of valuable information, and gives you the opportunity
to ask questions on a wide variety of firearms topics. We strive to
connect the firearms owners of our great state with lots of information
on firearms, and keeping you up to date with proposed laws that may
affect your rights.
The biggest advantage to becoming
an NFOA member is that every single new member we add increases our
strength as a force to be listened to and reckoned with in the fight to
preserve our 2nd Amendment rights here in Nebraska and nationaly.

Update:   As of September 13th, 2009 (less than 10 months after forming) the NFOA has surpassed the 2000 member mark!!
 



Update #2:  As of December 2010 we have passed the 4500 member mark.

Quick update,





I believe we have close to 250 members already, growing a little every day.  Please, if you haven't joined yet, please head over to http://www.nefirearm.com/ and join.  There are some developments concerning CCW and gun registration in Omaha, among other things, that we are working on with a state Senator at the moment.  The more members we have, the more the Unicameral will pay attention to us and our concerns.




I will have a table set up at the Ft. Calhoun gun show sat. and sun. the 10th and 11th.  I should have some sign-up cards there as well for people to join.


Stop by and say hello!!

NFOA will be set up at Hastings. I encourage everyone to join in this effort to organize Nebraska Gun Owners to help prevent any future gun control efforts by the left. Membership is free, and a large group throws much more weight when talking to our representatives. Please stop by their table at the Hastings gun Show this weekend.

You may even get to meet the famous RickNE and get his autograph! He may be signing pictures, cost is cheap, and all proceeds will be donated to NFOA.

Rick,

Thought they told me at Hastings we had 630+ members, was that exaggerated? I passed out all my NFOA fylers at Crete, hopefully half the people who took flyers will sign up, that would boost it up by 50.

RickNE and I signed up 153 on paper at the Fremont show last weekend, passed out a few fliers to those who wanted to check it out first, and  hopefully those members will get  a few friends too. We should be close to that 750 mark.

Well we did it again, this time RickNE and I signed up 162 at Grand Island gun show, breaking the record set at Fremont by 9 members. By our calculations, we were around 940 members after the show.

KEEP SIGNING PEOPLE UP GUYS!

Big news, we have signed up over 3000 members in a little over a years time. We hoped to have 3k members before Christmas, and we passed it by 50 or so. Let's see if we can have 6k members by next Christmas.

Yeah, I'm liking all the bills that have been introduced.  Could be an extremely productive session for our cause.  We need to fight just as hard, or harder, than we did for LB430.

Thanks again for all your hard work, NFOA leadership.

Opening - US Flag raising. We have a Cub Scout pack conducting the flag raising for us.  

11am- Social hour commences after the flag is raised.

Please bring your retired US flags to the event for proper disposal. If you are like me, I have been flying the colors 24/7 - 365 since 9/11, and I have a large number of flags that require a dignified retirement. I included this to honor the fallen of the terrorist attacks on our country in 2001.

After the flag retirement is completed, any  remaining flags will be properly retired by NFOA members of the American Legion.

3pm- Close . We will have ranges available for shooting rifle, pistol and shotgun. Events TBA.  NRA certified range officers will be present.  Bring your guns and ammo. Due to firearms being present, no alcohol will be allowed at this event.
