How to Get an M14 Program
(and keep your freedoms)
1. Find out the names and addresses - and telephone numbers -
of your Federal [and State and Local] Representatives. Call the
reference desk at your local library to find them out - and keep
them where you can get to them easily!
2. Write or call your representatives in Congress (and the
Statehouse) with a "one minute" letter or phone call (see below).
3. Get the message to others about how easy it is to be effective in
promoting a DCM M14 program. This is crucial. Only if you get your
gun-owning friends involved will you make the real difference that
we need to make.
4. YOU should DO MORE: Sign up with NRA-ILA
Grassroots (1-800-392-8683). Get ready for the next election
- get registered, get your friends motivated, KNOW who to vote for
nationally and for the statehouse. Get active! The only thing you
have to lose is your freedom! What you have to win is an M14!
Ignore your gun rights --- and they'll go away!
What to Say in Your One-Minute
Letter or Phone Call
Dear Sir:
I am strongly for a semiautomatic M14 program through the DCM.
This would result in hundreds of millions saved to reduce the
deficit. All my friends feel the same way, but they are too lazy to
write - but they do vote.
Sincerely,
_________
Do not copy the above example exactly - use your own words to
get the point across, or take the examples below and use different
parts of each. Remember, a "one-minute" letter gets the point
across to your representative just as effectively as a three page
letter: he knows your position, he knows how you feel, he knows
how you want him to vote, and he knows you are a voter who is
watching him.
Other Sample Letters (Pick any one, or combine different ones):I
not only want you to vote against any bill which includes gun
control;
I want you to be "pro-active" in Congress and help us get
an M14 DCM program.
If the problem is the deficit, why is our government
throwing away hundreds of millions of dollars by
destroying M14 rifles - some of which are brand new!?
Quit wasting taxpayer money and allow the sale of
semi-auto M14s through DCM - up to 300-600 million
realized in DEFICIT REDUCTION
Remember to always be polite in making your points. Treat
your reps with consideration - like they are humans - and you
will get a lot farther. Remember further - they are YOUR
rights, and the price of liberty is eternal vigilance
(Translation: "You snooze - you lose"). Join RGC - purchase
M1 & M14 parts from DCM. Qualify to purchase an M1 Garand!
Send a $20 check payable to "RGC" for membership card,
info packet, and ordering forms. Last, and NOT least, get the
word out! Your friends and shooting buddies need to know
about our program - that gun owners are organizing and will
not be pushed around anymore. This year, make a difference
- and get ready to send them a message in the next election!
Don't Talk About it! Do It! Protect Your Firearms Heritage.
WRITE A "ONE-MINUTE LETTER"!
(Do not copy exactly) "Dear Sir: My friends and I urge you to
reduce the deficit 300-600 million bucks through allowing the
sale of DoD semi-auto M14s, M1 carbines, etc. to the
law-abiding, taxpaying voters. Thank you for listening to a
voter. Sincerely, _________"

register & vote, and make sure your gun-owning friends do
also!
It does not take a lot of time
to get your Congressman's
ear. A "One Minute Letter"
will count just as much as a
three-page letter - but takes a
lot less time to write. Make
your opinion count - send a
"One Minute Letter"!
