ORA Honors Coffee, Ellis, Chesnut


The Oklahoma Rifle Association has presented annual awards to two legislators and a national magazine editor.
Honored at the ORA's Annual Banquet Saturday night were Senate President Pro Tem Glenn Coffee (right), Senator Jerry Ellis (left), and Mark Chesnut (below), editor of the National Rifle Association's official journal, America's First Freedom.

Coffee and Ellis were honored for their support of the 2nd Amendment and the right to keep and bear arms.

Chesnut, who grew up in Tuttle and attended OSU, was presented the annual Mike McCarville Media Award for his efforts on behalf of the 2nd Amendment. He lives in Jenks with his wife and four children. He previously edited Gun Digest, Bassin' and Crappie World magazines.

Guest speaker at the banquet was Senator Tom Coburn, who said the 2nd Amendment is the one that guarantees all the others.
