A message from New Mexico Shooting Sports Association President Zac Fort:
After the passage of SB5, it was clear that legal action would be the next step to fight against "Red-Flag" gun confiscation orders. Through discussions with an attorney, we were advised that our best shot at stopping the law would be through a lawsuit brought by a party with "standing" to sue. This would likely mean that we would have to wait for someone to be "red-flagged" to file suit. However, New Mexico Sheriffs already have standing to sue as they are a party to the orders - they don't have to wait for the law to go into effect. Our Sheriffs have been steadfast in fighting against anti-gun and anti-freedom legislation, and we trust their efforts to stop the "Red-Flag" law from going into effect. NMSSA is committed to helping the Sheriffs with this lawsuit as this is our best shot at stopping the law. To this end, we are helping the New Mexico Sheriff's Association fund-raise to cover the cost of the lawsuit. You can help by becoming a member of the New Mexico Sheriff's Association or making a donation to them, you do not need to be a law enforcement officer to be a member of their association.
