Thanks again....actually we might want to reference another bill HB 594 & HB 595 that cover all the issues in your letter. One covers gun show sales and the other bill proposal covers the 30 day rule.

Again Thanks!!

Call me crazy, but I would keep the letters on these bills separate..."Laundry lists" tend to wind up in that "other" pile of letters...

And one other letter towards the end of the regular session expressing gratitude for their attention to "all" of your previous coorespondence sends a good vibe that is appreciated...

Perfect S&W...

You hit all the points, and it was short and sweet...

I would also use this template as a letter "in approval" or "thank you" for their support for your views and their vote on the matter...

Man, thats a good letter!

"(2) provide to the department any other information requested by the department."

Define "any other information"...

I see this one section without any obvious context or need to be written in here, other than it being a "loophole" for intrusive, non-applicable investigation...

This is one of those bills that needs to find a circular filing container in a very public way...

I am also not impressed with the provisions in "section 220" at all...

That would essentially kill any public discussion or debate on anything you wish to be interested in talking about...I've heard about this thing recently, and am wondering if this is one of those issues that will find favorable passage in the current political climate in D.C. this session???

You could probably say bye bye to websites like this real quick...
