As you all likely know, one of the worst attacks on the 2nd Amendment was signed into law by Governor Maura Healey on July 25, 2024.
This outright attack on law-abiding gun owners and future gun owners cannot stand. An effort has been organized to put a binding referendum question on the November ballot. However, to get the question on the ballot, there need to be 50,000 certified signatures collected. This really means that closer to 75,000 signatures need to be gathered, as some will undoubtedly be thrown out.
We, as gun owners, cannot do this without banding together and making our voices heard loud and clear!
Come to Tombstone Trading Company on September 14th and sign the petition. We will have people in the building dedicated to collecting signatures.
As a thank you for coming out and fighting for your rights, anyone who is qualified to sign (you must be a registered voter; see more below on that) will be entered into a drawing to win a Henry Golden Boy rifle in .22LR. You DO NOT need to be an LTC or FID holder to sign the petition, only a registered voter. So bring your family and friends to sign, and we look forward to seeing you on the 14th!
