SAF founder and Executive V.P. Alan Gottlieb said this year’s GRPC event occurs at a critical time for the Second Amendment movement:

“Our rights have been under continuing and unrelenting attacks from the Biden administration. While we have seen several Second Amendment victories in the courts and the various state legislatures. We are witnessing continued growth in the number of legally-armed citizens, with more than half of the states now enjoying Constitutional/permitless carry.

“We’ve come a long way since the first GRPC was held in Seattle in 1986,” Gottlieb added. “We will be delighted to see old friends and make new ones, and we expect this year’s conference to be an awesome event for everyone.”
