Governor Rick Perry Friday accepted the endorsement of the National Rifle Association and the Texas State Rifle Association.
"Texas gun owners, hunters and concealed handgun licensees are all in Gov. Perry's debt for his steadfast support and commitment to our invaluable Second Amendment rights," said Alice Tripp, TSRA PAC legislative director.
The organization noted that Perry has signed several pieces of legislation that strengthen 2nd Amendment rights, including the castle Doctrine, which allows a homeowner to defend themselves with deadly force.
