  1. Guys -- I have been tasked with looking for some information for a couple of "new" projects. 1. any individual or FFL that is experiencing delays in background checks -- taking longer than the 72 hours. 2. any individual who has been subject to the clear and present danger reporting and had their FOID/CHL revoked and had to appeal. you can respond here or to my personal email tvandermyd@aol.com thank you for your help in these matter. Todd
  2. thank you to all who voted for me I came in last of the 35 slots available so I get a one year term, and then I can make up my mind if I want to pursue this further. Change is slow and the NRA works more like a legislative body. But I am happy to be in the fray. below is from No Lawyers only gun and money, my friend John Richardson Finally, as you know, there is a chance that no 76th Director election will be necessary. If any candidate declines a seat, or chooses not to run for 76th Director, or if any other vacancy occurs before the Annual Meeting, the partial-term directors will up accordingly. If that happens, we’ll send a revised list. Please join us in congratulating these newly elected or reelected directors. ELECTED FOR THREE-YEAR TERMS ENDING IN 2029 Leroy Sisco Megan Hilbish Amanda Suffecool Ted Carter Linda Walker James D’Cruz Kenneth Bowra David Raney James W. Porter II Jacqueline Janes Jay Wallace William Bailey Eric Mettauer Bruce Widener Rob Beckman Mark Vaughan Robert Mansell Charles Brown Charles Hiltunen III Mark Robinson Jerry Kraus Amy Heath-Lovato Randy Luth Eb Wilkinson Richard Fairburn ELECTED FOR TWO-YEAR TERMS ENDING IN 2028 Regis Synan Todd Figard Deborah Lyman Kyle Hupfer Robert K. Brown Steve Schreiner ELECTED FOR ONE-YEAR TERMS ENDING IN 2027 Jim Wallace Alex Carroll Huey Laugesen Todd Vandermyde NOT ELECTED — ELIGIBLE TO RUN FOR 76TH DIRECTOR Isaac Demarest Lynn Gipson WITHDREW Ernest Myers
  3. do you have the link to the appellate docket & decision?
  4. it means that the State Police are building a registry of firearms people are transferring. I have often thought of starting an FFL in say Tennessee. Since the requirement is to send it to an FFL, it does not state where, charge $5, and then since there is no requirement under ATF rules nor the state of Tennessee to hold these records, promptly shred them. You complied with the law, and so did we while at the same time depriving the gun controllers of what they want.
  5. few legislators do their own drafting. I use to drafty all kinds of bills for ideas I had and issues that needed fixing. I would then walk around to our friends and ask them if they wanted to sponsor a bill, give them a run down on the issues and they would pick one or two
  6. I think the new tactic should ask the Court for a writ of replevin for the rifle. And see if the sheriff fights it since she doesn't have a FOID card
  7. The Wheels of justice turn slowly, but they do turn I could not find another thread on this so if I missed it feel free to merge or paste this in there
  8. contact the office of the secretary they can help you out
  9. very proud to have the support of Washington Gun Law / William Kirk
  10. 2026 NRA Board Elections By Todd Vandermyde There are 37 candidates vying for 34 positions. There are 25 three year terms in the normal rotation, then due to a large number of resignations 5 two year and 4 one year terms. Then there is the 76th director elected for a single year term at the annual meeting. Last year I did not make the cut for one of the 25 three year terms, nor one of the other vacancies. I did rack up enough votes that with the resignations of Board members I was the next runner up and was appointed to fill a vacancy in October. NRA ballots will be mailed to all life members, and annual members having 5 or more years of consecutive membership. You just can’t join tomorrow as an annual member and vote. You can join as a life member and vote. I am suggesting a bullet ballot voting strategy for this year’ election. There are a number of good candidates. However, every vote for someone else is a chance they get more votes than me and once again I don’t make the cut for a 3 year term. By voting for a smaller number of candidates than 25, you increase the value of those votes cast because there are 15 votes that other don’t get. My suggested bullet ballot is: 1. Todd Vandermyde, Yorkville, Illinois 2. Charles T. Hiltunen III, Indianapolis, Indiana 3. Richard Fairburn, Canton, Illinois 4. Randy Luth, Becker, Minnesota 5. James W. Porter II, Birmingham, Alabama 6. Amanda Suffecool, Wayland, Ohio 7. Lynn Gipson, New Athens, Illinois 8. Huey Laugesen, Colorado Springs, Colorado 9. Jacqueline Janes, Mesa, Arizona 10. David Raney In mind of keeping this short I will post on social media and do a video on my Youtube channel about my run and picks for this years election. Since being appointed in October I have had several committee meetings and can attest to the efforts being made to right the listing ship that is the NRA. If you are an NRA member eligible to vote, please help in reforming the NRA by supporting these candidates. I appreciate you support and ask for your vote. Please copy and paste these around the boards, forums and social media to help get the Word out. Todd
