The following is a public service
announcement. Below it is a warning, note, and disclaimer by
UT Gun Rights.
WHEN: Saturday, Feb. 8, 2020,
11:00 AM – 2:00 PM
WHERE: Utah State Capitol – South
Steps
Utah Gun Exchange, in response to
recent proposals from legislators, including red flag
laws, universal background checks and the elimination of
private transfers, which would substantially infringe upon
our constitutional rights, seeks to unite people in
support of our freedoms and show our legislators that we
are resolute in the support of our Constitution. As such,
we are co-sponsoring Utah’s first Pro 2A Freedom Rally of
2020 with Open Carry Utah, Oath Keepers, Utah Shooters and
the Utah Firearms Association in an effort to preserve our
freedoms for all people now and for future generations to
come.
Please join us in celebrating our
constitutional freedoms that allow us to prevent
atrocities and remain free to pursue our lives, liberty
and happiness.
The list of speakers scheduled to
appear is diverse and impressive. The key note address
will be delivered by Clark Aposhian, Chairman of the Utah
Shooting Sports Council.

UT Gun Rights Warning,
Note, and Disclaimer:
WARNING:
Many have asked questions regarding the status of Utah's
open carry statutes with regard to rifles and shotguns. UT
Gun Rights does NOT provide legal advice or counsel,
however, the following article should be seriously
considered. Regardless of opinions to the contrary, Utah
legislators involved in the drafting and enactment of HB
276 in 2014 repeatedly and publicly asserted that, under
their bill, OPEN CARRY WEAPONS MUST BE HOLSTERED OR
ENCASED. See "2014's
Trojan Horse: Lessons for Utah Gun Owners."
Note:
There are, in fact, MANY gun control bills moving forward
in the Utah legislature. Learn more at the
2020 Bill
