Best Republican candidate for us gun owners?

[Buckyt]

Who should we be voting for based on their view of gun owners rights?

Maybe the only one that actually follows and defends the United States Constitution?

Here we go.

I think Romney is a 'born again' gun person. The NRA gives him a 'B' grade, I think it should be more like a D+.

Having said that, I think there is little difference between what he would do for gun rights and what any of the other candidates would do. He is forced at the tip of a pointy stick to follow the party line, and someone on the extreme other end of the spectrum may WANT to do a lot for gun rights, but they are limited in their actual powers. Their most significant and lasting influence lies in their court nominees, and I think there would be little difference between the republican candidates in this regard.

Maybe the only one that actually follows and defends the United States Constitution?

I would like to know the answer to this as well. All I was able to extract from the other threads on individual candidates was to choose your poison. From what I understand, there is no candidate with a truly solid record of pro-2A support.

From the rules:

We have learned from bitter experience that discussions of politics, abortion, religion, and sexual orientation often degenerate into less-than-polite arguments or claims that "my God is better than your God". For this reason, we do not discuss such subjects on THR, and any threads dealing primarily with these subjects will be closed or deleted immediately.
