A spokesman for the Gun Owners of America explains how this year’s GOALS event is the biggest one yet, as it’s added some innovative guests.
This year’s Gun Owners Advocacy and Leadership Summit – GOALS for short – is looking to be the biggest yet for the Gun Owners of America.
Several of the most influential figures in the firearms industry are set to take part in an exclusive panel, in an effort to discuss how its leading companies continue to thrive – even in the face of certain state governments trying to fight against them.
These panelists include Jamin McCallum (CEO, Palmetto State Armory), Pete Brownell (CEO, Brownells), Bob Faxon (President, Faxon Firearms), Adam Ruonala (VP of Marketing & Development, Century Arms), and Issac Botkin (Chief Visionary Officer, T.Rex Arms).
At a time when the discussion surrounding gun rights continue onward, this will no doubt be one that fans and gun owners alike won’t want to miss.
Erich Pratt, who serves as Senior Vice President of Gun Owners of America, noted, “The Second Amendment is not just a political issue—it’s an engine for American innovation. These leaders represent the best of our industry, and this panel will show how entrepreneurial vision and constitutional rights go hand-in-hand. We’re thrilled to give GOALS attendees an insider look at where the firearm industry is headed.”
A spokesman for the Gun Owners of America joins us now to discuss the importance of the event and this particular panel.
Q&A:
- How important is a panel such as this to the forthcoming GOALS event in August?
- How does the industry continue to thrive in the face of criticism? We know that several Democrats are still doing whatever it takes to set up limitations and even out-right bans in an effort to curb gun rights.
- Do you believe that this year’s GOALS event will be even bigger than the last one? Could we see even more guests announced?
- Do you expect some great discussions to come from this year’s GOALS event?
- Where can we learn more about this year’s GOALS event, and where can interested parties get tickets?
- You can learn more about it here at the official GOALS website.
