The National Shooting Sports Foundation (NSSF) praised President Donald Trump for his Presidential Message recognizing National Shooting Sports Month. In the message, Trump emphasized the values of focus, discipline, and confidence fostered through lawful firearm ownership and pledged, 'For as long as I am President, the Federal Government will abide by the premise that the God-given right to bear arms shall not be infringed.' NSSF President and CEO Joe Bartozzi contrasted Trumps supportive stance with the previous administration, noting that the White House is now 'celebrating our national character of responsible firearm ownership' rather than targeting the industry. National Shooting Sports Month, now in its ninth year, is an industry-wide initiative that promotes safe participation in target shooting through events, training, and promotions at ranges and retailers across the U.S. Trumps message reinforced the cultural and constitutional significance of firearms while highlighting the importance of passing these traditions to future generations.
