August, 2002 The N.A.A.C.P. and Me Please accept my apologies for being late in preparing this month's edition. I spent much of last week preparing for, and delivering testimony at, a deposition conducted by Ms. Elisa Barnes, counsel representing the plaintiff in N.A.A.C.P. vs. American Arms et al. (which includes a laundry list of approx. 50 firearms manufacturers and distributors). This suit, claiming negligent/criminal distribution and marketing, etc. is similar to the spate of city suits about which you've probably read (most of which have been summarily dismissed), and is being tried by the same attorney who originally met success in Hamilton vs. AccuTek et al in front of, coincidentally (?), the same liberal, activist federal judge (Weinstein) who, it is widely assumed, has already reached a conclusion and written his opinion. Much of the day was spent answering questions about what I/NAA was doing to stem the flow of blood in our streets, a la "when did I stop beating my wife"? Groan I feel certain that by this time next month we will have resumed deliveries of our .32NAA Guardian. The component fixes I described last month have been effected and are being evaluated as I write. I'm sorry for the delay but am heartened by the unanimous supporting comments I've received since we made this decision. Similarly, next month I expect we'll announce deliveries of
our Mini-Master chambered in the new .17HMR. I'm looking forward
to reviewing the chronograph results and making this new little
plinker available. Read Dave Spaulding's Review from Law and Order Magazine For updates on the .32 NAA: |

For your amusement, we are happy to offer a screen saver with multiple animations of a NAA handgun being fired. This file is fairly large (approx. 16M) but if you have a high-speed connection, it's worth a grin! Click here for the screen saver. |

Senator
Orrin G. Hatch (R-UT) checks out the latest edition of the North American Arms catalog. He mentioned
that he regularly carries two of the firm's firearm products after receiving death threats several
years ago. ASSC's 1996 Congressional Leader of the Year Award was presented to Sen. Hatch "in
appreciation of his leadership and commitment in defense of our heritage, our industry and our life"
