A well-regulated militia, being necessary to the security of a free state, the right of the people to keep and bear arms, shall not be infringed. 2nd Amendment of the United States Constitution

Background: The 2A battles fought in the past few months have been some of the most public, as the anti-gunners tug on the publics' emotions rather than use fact and logic in their arguments. We recently had a victory when the assault weapons ban was dropped from the Manchin-Toomey gun control bill, and the bill itself was defeated. But it's definitely not over, and now more than ever, we need to stick together and fight for our rights. Part of that is educating the uneducated.

MM came up with the 2A patch idea as both a means of declaring and showing our personal support for our 2A rights, and also as a conversation starter, to help spread the word, or engage others in a meaningful discussion (hopefully). Rather than a graphic with guns or a lot of text, MM decided that a simple '2A' was all that was needed. It'd be clear to those who know but may not be to those who don't. That's where the patch may help start conversations when people ask 'what's 2A?'. It's a simple, non-threatening design and crystal clear statement (when you explain what it means).

Special thanks to Monkey at Milspecmonkey (who also produces the MM PVC Skull Patch) to help finalize the patch color, design and production.
