Make no mistake, the survival of our right to keep and bear arms, or more directly, protect ourselves and our families, is at stake. Gun grabbing politicians want to restrict our rights while not prosecuting violent criminals, allowing them to attack and destroy our country, and mass releasing prisoners.
We get one shot to protect our rights through voting on November 3rd, vote accordingly! Below are DSSA’s candidate ratings provided to our members as a service:

Here’s What the Ratings Mean: |
Ratings and endorsements are based solely on a candidate’s support of our Right to Keep and Bear Arms, and do not take into consideration a candidate’s position on other unrelated issues. |
“A+” A legislator with not only an excellent voting record on all critical NRA issues, but who has also made a vigorous effort to promote and defend the Second Amendment. |
A Solidly pro-gun candidate. A candidate who has supported NRA |
positions on key votes in elective office or a candidate with a demonstrated record of support on Second Amendment issues. |
“AQ” A pro-gun candidate whose rating is based solely on the candidate’s responses to the NRA-PVF Candidate Questionnaire and who does not have a voting record on Second Amendment issues. |
“B” A generally pro-gun candidate. However, a “B” candidate may oppose some pro-gun reform or support some restrictive legislation. |
“C” Not necessarily a passing grade. A candidate with mixed record or positions on gun related issues, who may oppose some pro-gun positions or support some restrictive legislation. |
“D” An anti-gun candidate who usually supports restrictive gun control legislation and opposes pro-gun reforms. Regardless of public statements, can usually be counted on to vote wrong on key issues. |
“F” True enemy of gun owners’ rights. A consistent anti-gun candidate who always opposes gun owners’ rights and/or actively |
leads anti-gun legislative efforts, or sponsors anti-gun legislation. |
“?” Refused to answer the NRA/PVF candidate questionnaire or a candidate who has made contradictory statements. |
