OCGO Gun Prom: What a fantastic night!

It was a full house Saturday at the Orange Hill Restaurant for Annual Second Amendment Celebration Dinner aka Gun Prom!

140 people attended, the energy in the room was high, and it was an honor and privilege to be around so many amazing Pro-2A people! We’re happy to report that as a result of the night we have 40+ new members as well!

Congratulations to this year’s award winners:

Board Member of the Year: Evan Wang

MVP of the Year: Steve Mills

Member of the Year: Heather Hawke

Elected Official of the Year: Mike Munzing

Gun Shop of the Year: Rifle Supply

Thank you to all that attended, purchased tickets, participated in the raffle, and live auction. We were excited to see everyone making new connections and friends in our 2A community. We hope to see all of you at more OCGO events and at the dinner next year!

A special thank you all who donated to the paddle raise for the #NotMeCA program! Your generosity was overwhelming and much appreciated by the ladies to help get women the training and firearms they need to empower & protect themselves!

A final big thank you to all of our raffle prize donors which we’ll give special recognition on next week’s email!

“This is My Rifle” – How the M1 Garand Became a Legend Among Riflemen

Screenshot 2022-04-29 033142

Perhaps more than any other military rifle, John Garand’s iconic M1 holds a special place in the hearts of military riflemen and civilian enthusiasts alike. From the jungles of the South Pacific to the infamous “Frozen Chosin,” Marines carried this revolutionary arm for nearly two decades, using it to deadly effect in some of the Corps’ most famous battles.
