[Posted Wednesday, January 25, 2012, at 11:40 a.m.] The following is adapted from an article posted at http://www.ammoland.com/2012/01/24/scott-l-bach-good-nra-leadership/ :
“Freedom rests on our shoulders — let’s stand proud and defend it together” says three-term NRA Board member Scott Bach. “If all we have left to muster is sheer force of will and bold intention, we will always find a way to defend freedom – always.”
These words embody the spirit of a tenacious Second Amendment activist, who has devoted more than a decade to defending gun rights both nationally and on the “front lines” of the Northeast – where politicians who control government are hostile to firearms freedoms.
As president of the Association of New Jersey Rifle & Pistol Clubs for the last six years, and more recently as its first executive director, Bach has defeated numerous gun bans against near-impossible odds in a State House controlled by anti-gunners.
At NRA, Bach serves on the Executive Committee as vice chair of the Public Affairs Committee and on the Legislative Policy Committee. He is and avid shooter and makes regular media appearances.
Bach has been a loyal friend to New Hampshire gun owners and is one of the few NRA Directors who really listens to what fellow members have to say. He maintains close communications with New Hampshire gun owners in part through his friendships with PGNH Board members Evan Nappen and Sam Cohen.
