It's not unusual for us to receive phone calls from MA gun owners who are looking for guidance and are not members of GOAL.
Often times they ask
"why should I join GOAL?"
The answer is simple: "our answering of your phone call and question is made possible by GOAL members".
We are more than just a resource though, we continually work to protect & restore Second Amendment freedom, we support many education efforts including our full training schedule and we proudly represent the interests of all law abiding gun owners.
If you are not a member, please consider joining, you can do so online here: http://goal.org/joingoal.html

Also, the same sign is going to be flying for 2 hours during pregame next weekend over a very popular tailgate party in Foxborough. (all planes have to leave 1 hour before game due to security reasons)

With Attorney General Healey in power your vote as a resident of Massachusetts no longer matters.
On July 20, 2016 Attorney General Maura Healey announced a deliberate misinterpretation of the laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts via a highly controversial enforcement notice posted on her website. There was no due process, no public input, no members of the legislature debated her enforcement notice and the governor never signed it into law. Hundreds of thousands of licensed gun owners are now threatened by Healey with a ten year felony charge for failure to comply to the information posted on her webpage.
(She also wrote that her enforcement notice is open to change at her discretion.)
Attorney General Healey's actions demonstrated a complete disregard for due process, she did it to advance a political agenda for her personal gain, she usurped the power of the legislature, she silenced the courts, and she muted the voice of the voters of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts.
It is wrong. To say otherwise is a distortion of the truth, please click the link below and join our efforts to stop the abusive action from AG Healey.
