Chairman’s Message: Time for the NASGW Expo

Posted by Bill Sumner on 10/7/24 12:45 PM

Can you believe it is already time for the NASGW Expo? If you are anything like me, you and your teams are scrambling to get all your ducks in a row for another busy week at NASGW. This year’s event is a big milestone, celebrating 50 years of the NASGW Expo. This event dates back to 1974 and we’ve only missed one year since then, 2020.  NASGW may not be as well-known as NRA or NSSF, but the work that our members and board of directors is accomplishing on behalf of the industry is beginning to make impact.

President's Message: Are You Even Aware, Bro?

Posted by Kenyon Gleason on 9/17/24 8:15 AM

My sons, though all adults now, are still fun to watch grow up. I have 5 sons for those who didn’t know. And over the summer months I’ve gotten to spend a small bit of time with each of them. With the boys scattered all over the USA, their mom and I find it challenging to get time with them regularly. So, when we do see them, we value that time immensely. It’s just never enough.

Chairman’s Message: Company Culture

Posted by Bill Sumner on 9/4/24 10:41 AM

I had the opportunity to speak with several friends in the industry over the past couple of weeks and a common reoccurring topic that continues to drive our conversations has almost exclusively been around company culture.  There’s no doubt that many of our organizations have changed over the years, some for the better, and others for the worse.  Change is an inescapable reality, but what we often fail to do is to protect the very values that once drove our past successes.

President's Message: Who You Choose Matters

Posted by Kenyon Gleason on 8/15/24 5:26 PM

Just when you thought it couldn’t get any more absurd… in comes Massachusetts and says, “Hold my beer.”

As if to prove to the world they weren’t quite restrictive enough in their approach to gun laws, Massachusetts recently passed some of the most intrusive and likely unconstitutional, anti-gun laws in the country. And if you believe their legislators (hint - you should), they’re proud of the fact that they did it and know full well they’ll get sued. If only we could all be so cavalier with the use of taxpayer funds to fight lawsuits for things we don’t happen to like or understand.
