Default Charlton Heston

This is indeed a sad day. Charlton was an avid gun owner and supporter of gun rights & tried harder to ensure those rights were safeguarded than most would ever think of doing. He was a friend to us all whether he knew us personally or not. He will be missed greatly!

Now that he's gone I still don't think anyone could pry his gun from his hand. Sad news indeed about his death.

Remember those 'Charlton Heston is MY President' bumper stickers?

He changed the discussion about gun ownership with his "from my cold, dead hands" statement.

His kind has become all to rare.

Sad news indeed. A true friend to gun owners. Too bad we don't have a lot more like him! RIP

Hard things are put in our way, not to stop us, but to call out our courage and strength.

To preserve liberty, it is essential that the whole body of people always possess arms, and be taught alike, especially when young, how to use them...
