ORA: Andrew Rice No Friend Of Gun Owners

State Senator Andrew Rice, candidate for the Democratic nomination for the U. S. Senate, is no friend of gun owners, the Oklahoma Rifle Association reports in its magazine, The Sharpshooter.
The ORA cites responses Rice gave to a questionnaire he completed when a candidate for the State Senate: "In the survey he stated he (1) supported the assaults weapon ban, (2) believed the sale of military semi-autos to civilians should be curtailed, (3) civilian semi-automatic firearms should be restricted, (4) supported the registration of all firearms, (5) supported registration of all handguns, and (6) all firearms owners should be licensed."
The article reports, "Senator (Jim) Inhofe has a long history of support for the Second Amendment dating back to his days in the Oklahoma State Senate and has consistently received an 'A+' rating from both NRA and ORA. On election day, for Oklahomans who believe in the 'right to keep and bear arms', the choice is simple."
