While he’s handing over massive amount of military grade weapons to the Taliban in Afghanistan, Joe Biden is more determined than ever to crush our Second Amendment freedoms here at home.
Whether it’s his Executive Actions attacking pistol braces or the massive legislation he’s pushing to put every gun owner in the country into a national database, Biden and the handlers who run him are working every day to disarm every single one of us!
These attacks have only served to excite the gun-grabbers here in Albany, who have been filing the most aggressive gun control bills that we’ve ever seen in the Capitol.
And while we’ve been able to stop the vast majority of these attacks on our freedom, with Cuomo on his way out, we expect these fights to resume with a vengeance next session!
And while the NYS Firearms Association is THE VOICE for gun owners in New York State, we need your help now, more than ever, to maintain this fight for freedom. That’s why I hope you’ll consider upgrading your support in this organization, at a Sentinel Membership level!
NYSFA’s Sentinel Membership is a program that allows you to donate $17.76 per month, ensuring that we have the resources we need to work with year round, while also making sure that you are NEVER OUT OF THE FIGHT FOR FREEDOM IN NEW YORK STATE!
Of course, gun owners are also ecstatic about the fact that these special memberships come with an NYSFA cap, shirt, polo, and hoodie — something that we have never offered before.
For all of the details, read the email below.
Then I hope you’ll consider a Sentinel Membership in the NYS Firearms Association today — making sure that we can continue to fight for freedom for years to come!

Dear Friend —
The Second Amendment has been under attack here in New York State for a long time, with politicians on both sides of the aisle betraying us. That’s nothing new.
But with a whole new generation of raging socialists running the State Senate and the State Assembly, the fight to disarm and enslave New Yorkers is white hot!
And while Andrew Cuomo is finally out of power, incoming Governor Kathy Hochul is a loud and vocal supporter of the radical gun control agenda being pushed in Albany.
In fact, multiple insiders have told us that she is already being forced to move even further left than Cuomo was, to gain the support of the socialists who are in charge in Albany!
Some gun owners may be tempted to think that Cuomo has done his worst, that between the SAFE ACT of 2013 and the legislation passed in 2018, Cuomo and the radical socialists in Albany may stop pushing for more gun control legislation and call it a day.
The truth is that their assault against our precious Second Amendment is just beginning, as an entire new generation of socialists are running the show in the Senate and Assembly.
These radicals have declared open war on law abiding gun owners like you and me and are determined to CRUSH US once and for all with bills like:
>>> SB-1605 from Senator Sanders; forcing law abiding gun owners to submit to a mental health examination before they could buy a firearm and allowing Gov. Hochul to target gun owners for harassment like some third world dictator!
>>> SB-4946 from Senator Parker; forcing you to carry
liability insurance if you want to buy a handgun. Of course, this insurance is illegal to sell in New York State, meaning it would be all but impossible to buy a handgun!
>>> SB-476 from Senator Holyman; raising the minimum age on when you could own a firearm to 21. This would make your 20-year-old daughter a felon for ‘crimes’ like shooting a home-invading would-be rapist dead before she was assaulted!
There is no doubt that these people hate you; they hate the freedoms that this country was built on, and they will put law abiding gun owners in prison if they can get away with it.
These bills are just three of the dozens of gun control bills that gun-grabbers have thrown at us over the past three years.
I’ll be honest, I don’t see this trend reversing any time soon. It’s only going to be heating up with Kathy Hochul moving into the Governor’s mansion.
That’s why I am emailing you today.
The mission of the NYS Firearms Association is to do everything we can to stop gun control, advance pro-gun legislation where possible, and to hold the politicians who stand in the way of those goals accountable.
Each of these efforts are vitally important to the future of our freedoms here in New York State — but they come at a cost.
And when you combine our work to stop gun control bills in Albany with our fight to advance Stand-Your-Ground law, while also pouring pressure on New York’s Congressional delegation to stop Biden’s war on guns in D.C., the costs add up FAST!
And while I’m able to make budget allotments at the beginning of the year after we complete our annual renewal program, after the first few months of the year I often am forced to make cuts in our programs because we can’t afford them.
With the growing threats that we are facing, that is the last thing that I want to do.
And that’s why I’m excited to announce the launch of our new SENTINEL MEMBERSHIP program for the NYS Firearms Association!
As the name implies, Sentinel Memberships are for gun owners who want to help us stand guard and be the watchmen on history’s wall for our precious Second Amendment freedoms — to help make sure that our children and grandchildren do not grow up in a nation that criminalizes the private ownership of guns.
Specifically, Sentinel Memberships allow our supporters to make monthly donations of $17.76 (less than $.60 a day) to the NYS Firearms Association, that will give us the critical support we need to fight for you year round!
To get involved in this program, click here or below!
This will enable us to be far more effective than we already are at addressing threats as they come up in real time.
But more than just helping the NYS Firearms Association fight more effectively, Sentinel Memberships come with a pile of swag options that we have never offered before.
For example, after your 6th month as a Sentinel Member, you will receive a brand new NYS Firearms Association Pacific Headwear cap!
This hat comes with a flex fit design and mesh on the back side for maximum comfort.
A few months after you receive this hat, we will send you a newly redesigned NYS Firearms Association t-shirt, one that won’t be available to anyone else.
But that’s just the beginning!
Gun owners have been asking us for polos and hoodies to demonstrate their support in this organization for a long time. Now, it’s finally happening.
And while the polos and hoodies you see below will soon be available for purchase by gun owners — as a Sentinel Member, you’ll receive these complimentary items at no cost, as our way of saying thanks for your ongoing support.
The NYSFA polo below features an embroidered NYSFA logo and will arrive at your door after your 16th month as a Sentinel Member, while our brand new NYSFA hoodie (the final piece of swag offered to Sentinel Members) is yours after your 21st month in this member program.
I know that the members of the NYS Firearms Association don’t stand up for the Second Amendment or support this organization just because you get gear.
You do it because you love this great country and the Second Amendment freedoms that it was built on.
And as I said earlier, we do it because we owe a debt of honor to our Founding Fathers who gave up everything to give us a nation that enshrined our right to defend ourselves from tyranny.
But these freedoms are going to be attacked like we have never seen here in New York State in the coming months and years, and we just aren’t in a place to face all these threats simultaneously right now.
The gear above is our way of thanking you for going above and beyond as we all stand together and fight against socialism.
Sentinel memberships start at $17.76 per month in recognition of the start of our great nation. But if you would like to select a higher monthly gift, please do so, knowing that every penny goes to the fight for gun rights right here in New York State.
If you would like to contribute a lower amount than $17.76, you can do that as well, and still receive a member decal.
Thank you, in advance, for standing up for our great Second Amendment and for your support of the NYS Firearms Association!
For New York State,
Aaron Dorr
Executive Director
NYS Firearms Association
