Ithaca Gun Company Assets Sold At Auction: After an anticipated sale
fell through around Memorial Day, Ithaca Gun Co. has old off its

Medical Residents Research Gun Ownership: Family practice residents at
the University of Washington conducted some surveys regarding firearm
ownership and storage. Of note, they found a higher rate of firearm
ownership among their fellow physicians and physician assistants than
among the general public. (As a health professional who monitors and
advises physicians on drug therapy, I think that their time would be
better invested honing their medical skills than in seeking to become
firearm-safety instructors.)

Dear Second Amendment Supporter,
Howard Kaloogian might not be a household name outside of his home state
of California, but perhaps it should be.
In 2003, Kaloogian served as the Chairman of the Recall Gray Davis
Committee. Gray Davis was one of the most anti-gun Governors in
California's history, but with Kaloogian's help he became the first
statewide elected official recalled in the Golden State.
As a California Assemblyman from 1994-2000, Mr. Kaloogian fought
tenaciously against the most radical anti-gun agenda in the country.
Working with Gun Owners of America, Kaloogian lead the fight against SB
23, the expansion of the ban on "so-called" Assault Weapons, and SB 15,
the Safe Handgun laws that were really meant to ban small affordable
handguns.
Now, Mr. Kaloogian is running in an election that could bring his fiery
pro-gun conservatism to the U.S. Congress.
Due to the resignation of the incumbent Representative in California's
50th District, the seat is open for a special election to be called by
the Governor in the coming weeks.
Gun Owners of America Political Victory Fund is fully committed to
Howard Kaloogian's candidacy.
As in most open-seat races, the candidate field will be crowded and
early support is crucial.
GOA supporters have come through in the past. With your help, over 15
GOA supported candidates won in the 2004 congressional elections.
Now we have an opportunity to improve our numbers even more.
I urge you to support Howard Kaloogian for Congress. You can contribute
at
http://www.kaloogianforcongress.com on the web.
Even if you don't live in his congressional district, it is important to
help Howard Kaloogian. We need more people to join forces with the
pro-gun stalwarts we have now in Congress, not only to defeat the
numerous gun control bills that come up for a vote each year, but also
to ROLL BACK the unconstitutional gun control laws now on the
books.
GOA lobbyists work with Congressmen each year to introduce legislation
to repeal virtually every gun control law. We have many supporters, but
we need many more if we are to succeed.
I have absolutely no doubt that Howard Kaloogian will be among the most
ardent supporters and defenders of your Second Amendment rights.
Please help Howard Kaloogian today. This election is coming soon (within
120 days after the state's Governor calls for the election). Your early
support will help him to line up the volunteers he needs, put out
mailings, pay for signs and do the work necessary to win a congressional
election.
Your contribution of $100, $75, $50, $35 or even the legal maximum of
$2,000 will go a long way toward putting Howard Kaloogian over the top.
Please go to
http://www.kaloogianforcongress.com to make a contribution
today.
Or, if you prefer to send a check, please print the reply form below and
mail it directly to the campaign using the address provided. Checks
should be made payable to "Kaloogian For Congress."
Howard Kaloogian is 100% on our side concerning the Second Amendment. As
a legislator, he earned an "A" rating based not on words alone, but on
his actions.
Working together we will send Howard Kaloogian to Congress, where he
will be a leader and trusted fighter for the Second Amendment rights of
all Americans.
I hope that I can count on your strong support.
Sincerely,
Larry Pratt
Executive Director
