This was a surprise to me! 

Despite the establishment pouring large sums of cash into the special election to fill the Senate seat of Jeff Sessions, McConnell ally, Luther Strange, is lagging behind Roy Moore by nine points.
Worse, Rep. Mo Brooks is now threatening to overtake Strange, raising the prospect of the establishment being completely locked out of the runoff in September.

There is legislation to make it legal for ANYONE with a CCP to be able to carry nationwide. Instead of supporting this legislation, Mo Brooks introduced his own bill that would apply only to congress. If his bill passes and they are able to arm themselves, they will never vote for national reciprocity.

Brooks still supports national reciprocity. He has backed national reciprocity legislation in the past.

The 2011 bill he co-sponsored died in the Senate.

In addition to the Congress carry bill - which I can't stand either - Brooks still advocates for national reciprocity after the attack in Alexandria.

That's a legitimate concern, and it is up to us as citizens and constituents to tell our elected officials that Congressional Carry can happen after National Reciprocity or the bills should be combined. If that is not done, and Congressional Carry is passed without National Reciprocity, we need to hold our elected officials accountable for that. This is Alabama, there isn't a shortage of NRA A Rated politicians and pro-2A folks in this state.

I'm finding myself defending Mo Brooks in this thread which is strange, because I don't like the guy. I was shooting at a WMA range a few weekends ago and a guy volunteering for Brooks' campaign asked me if I wanted a sign for my yard and I basically told him the same thing I said in my first post in this thread: Brooks is the most palatable turd of the three major candidates.

Exactly. And he won't support it either, after his bill. If he had put as much effort in to National Reciprocity as he has his bill, I'd be all for him. However, he knows congress loves to vote themselves special privileges.

That incentive Brooks, Strange, Moore, or any politician has to pass National Reciprocity is fulfilling Rule #1 of an elected official: getting and keeping a job. Have you contacted Brooks to tell him that if he wants your vote for Senate then he needs to get National Reciprocity attached to or combined with the Congressional Carry bill?

Also, I think your statement about level of effort regarding Congressional Carry vs. National Reciprocity is inaccurate. The Congressional Carry bill is currently in subcommittee. The 2011 National Reciprocity bill that Brooks co-sponsored made it a lot further down the legislative road than Congressional Carry has. Also, I forgot in my earlier post that Brooks was an original co-sponsor of the 2017 Concealed Carry Reciprocity Act.

Strange appears to be very pro-RKBA, but I personally don't care for his ties to Bentley or friendliness with McConnell. Other than the expected "I support gun owners" type of fodder from Roy Moore, I couldn't find anything he has specifically done that would lead me to believe that Moore is pro-RKBA. I would have expected to have found a voting record fir Moore on any State Supreme Court cases relating to the RKBA, but I couldn't find any. Surely some exist...

I have tried to contact Brooks multiple times. I have to make up an address from his house district. He won't respond. This pisses me off. If you're running for a statewide seat, respond to statewide constituents.

The reason Brooks' bill got farther in less time is because he put major weight and tv time behind it. How many times have you seen anyone on tv pushing National Reciprocity? That's my point, PUSH LAWS FOR EVERYONE, NOT JUST CONGRESSCRITTERS!!

So I raised the "CCW for me and not for thee" issue with Mo Brooks.  His response was this:

...lest there be any confusion, as a staunch supporter of the 2nd Amendment Right to Bear Arms, I believe all law-abiding citizens should be able to conceal carry.  That is why I am an original cosponsor of H.R. 38, the Conceal Carry Reciprocity Act of 2017, to extend national reciprocity to all qualified individuals, as well as numerous other pieces of legislation ensuring that the rights guaranteed under the 2nd Amendment to the Constitution are not infringed upon.
View Quote
He goes on to explain that Democrats being the way they are, its a struggle for either bill (ccw for congress and national ccw) to get the votes needed, particularly where Senate republicans are letting Democrats procedurally own them.

Checked H.R. 38 Co Sponsors and Mo is there.

Was removed form the State Supreme Court for issuing orders to Circuit Court clerks to not marry same-sex couples.  Funny how the state has taken over marriage, which was defined as a religious covenant for thousands of years....

The current thinking now is that the Left is pumping up Luther Strange in the polls to get a Strange/Moore runoff.  The problem is that the Mo Brooks vote will probably go to Roy Moore, which is the one that the Left wants the Least.

Perry Hooper Jr. endorsed Luther Strange at Hoover Tactical today.  Luther Strange has locked up the Mountain Brook vote.

This election was an embarrassment for the state. Bitch McConnell bought this election.

'Yeah! luther Strange is pro-gun so he must be OK!'

I was seeing a lot of stuff claiming dems were voting for Luther in the hopes of beating Moore. This was several hours prior to the polls closing.

It should be interesting to see what effect further statements by Trump, (if any) have on the results of the runoff.
Quite a few of Moore's voting base were Trump supporters.

Most of Moore's voters would have been in the Cruz camp.

But that backfired on them.  If they really didn't want Moore then they should have voted Brooks.
