Target practice is one of the most basic uses of a firearm. In fact, it is an integral part of being a responsible gun owner. This necessity of firearms training has been around long before our nation was founded, but the U.S. Forest Service has decided to end target shooting in the Pike National Forest of Colorado. Not only is this ban a blanket violation of the Second Amendment but the “ban is unfair to the vast majority of safe and law-abiding target shooters in the National Forest.” While the U.S. Forest Service claims that the dispersed shooting ban was put in place to stop lead contamination from the bullets and to prevent any injuries or deaths, it provides no evidence that either of these issues are currently a problem. MSLF has filed an objection to this proposal! #proposal #forestservice #colorado #nationalforest #pikespeak #objection #constitutionalrights
