Another city passes the SDCGO initiative against HR127!

El Cajon City Council has joined Santee City Council and Oceanside City Council in unanimously denouncing the egregious anti-gun bill proposed by Rep. Sheila Lee (TX). This week, they passed a resolution to send a letter to Rep. Sara Jacobs and Rep. Darrell Issa urging them to vote NO on HR 127. Special thanks to Councilmembers Michelle Metschel and Phil Ortiz for working with SDCGO to introduce this important initiative.

If passed, HR 127 establishes a process for the licensing and registration of firearms, prohibits the possession of popular self-defense ammunition, prohibits normal capacity ammunition magazines, establishes a licensing system for the possession of firearms or ammunition, establishes a registration system for firearms, and establishes a publicly available database of all registered firearms.

SDCGO supports YES on Recall

San Diego County Gun Owners (SDCGO), a political action committee (PAC) promoting Second Amendment rights, has announced its endorsement of a “yes” vote for the upcoming California gubernatorial recall election.

“We are not endorsing a candidate, but we are supporting a yes vote on removing the current governor,” said Schwartz, executive director, SDCGO. “We are encouraging everyone to commit to show up to vote and make sure everyone you know does the same.”

According to Schwartz, first-term Democratic Gov. Gavin Newsom is the most anti-Second Amendment governor the state has ever endured.

More importantly, take some time to commit to helping with the recall effort. Carl DeMaio, Chairman of Reform California, has been leading the charge!

Can you please contribute ANYTHING today to the Recall Campaign so we can hit this 1 million voter goal by the time ballots arrive?

Contribute Securely: Recall Gavin Newsom

Reaching these 1 million tossup voters BEFORE they get their ballots is absolutely CRUCIAL to winning this Recall election. We are competing against Gavin Newsom’s false and misleading TV ads — but these personal contacts to voters can sway votes!

They also need more volunteers ASAP to help make the phone calls to these 1 million tossup voters. Have you downloaded the Recall campaign’s phone APP yet to make some calls? If not, please sign up to get your Recall campaign app credentials here.

Blog: Making a Citizen’s Arrest – A Good Idea?

The citizen’s arrest is a concept most of us are familiar with, probably from TV shows and movies. But is there really such a thing? It turns out that the citizen’s arrest is a real thing and is defined in statutes in most states including California. But is it a good idea for a legally armed citizen to execute one?

Win a Gun by Having Fun!

It’s time to step up your volunteer game!

Not only is volunteering a great way to give back to San Diego County Gun Owners and the Second Amendment community in general, it’s super easy and fun. You spend a few hours at your local gun shop (admit it, you do that anyway!) and talk to people about how important it is to fight for your gun rights, and how SDCGO is accomplishing that.

Plus… we have an exciting new incentive program starting in 2021! Every shift for which you volunteer and work will earn you an entry into our quarterly drawing for A GUN!

SDCGO Jackets now Available!
