Modern Musket

The primary goal of Modern Musket is to help change mainstream attitudes and perceptions of modern rifles while popularizing and solidifying a very simple philosophy. Once this philosophy is fully understood, if someone chooses to disagree, they either refuse to accept and understand the Second Amendment, or they simply wish it were abolished. To be clear, the intent of the Second Amendment is to

guarantee the People a means to resist tyranny and defend their lives, loved ones, and liberty through the use of Arms. It was not included in the Bill of Rights for hunting, competition, or target shooting. These enjoyable sporting applications for our fi****ms are added benefits we enjoy as a result of having our Second Amendment rights. When the Second Amendment was written and ratified, the musket and muzzle-loading rifle were the most common, modern long-arms of the time. Due to innovation and technological advancements, today we have a variety of fi****ms including modern rifles like the increasingly popular AR-15. The Second Amendment clearly references “Arms” within it's text; meaning muskets in the late 18th Century, to rifles like the AR-15 today. Make no mistake, modern rifles ARE our modern day muskets. So it all boils down to this one simple fact: Modern rifles such as the AR-15 are the EXACT Arms the Second Amendment is intended to protect. Now with this all being said, how can modern rifles be prohibited through gun control legislation such as so-called “assault weapons” bans? Doing so is a direct violation and infringement of our Second Amendment rights. It is imperative that we combat these unconstitutional laws and preserve our RIGHT to keep and bear modern muskets. If you have a few minutes, please take the time to read the “Article.” Also, be sure to keep an eye on the "Announcements" for Modern Musket related updates. As we grow, we plan to give back to the 2A/shooting community. Lastly, feel free to visit three of the most prominent organizations that fight for our Second Amendment rights (see links below). Thank you for your support and for spreading the Modern Musket message.
