Interesting that you'd rather believe the spin from a right-wing pressure group, than what the candidate actually says.

The pair of you should start checking the occasional fact.

Looks like it to me, their message is clearly not what Obama is saying.

I noticed Obama did not address a single point the NRA mentioned.

Nothing about what type of guns.
Nothing about what type of ammo.
Nothing.

That's quite right, HE HAS SAID NOTHING on the subject, has the NRA got a crystal ball? or are they just psychic?

Or are they a right wing lobbyist group?

If Obama Is Pro-Gun, Why Are Leading Anti-Gun and Anti-Hunting Groups Endorsing Him?

More Fun Facts

On the Second Amendment, Don’t Believe Obama

But his real record, based on votes taken, political associations, and long standing positions, shows that Barack Obama is a serious threat to Second Amendment liberties. Don’t listen to his campaign rhetoric! Look instead to what he has said and done during his entire political career.

Gerry,

It's the same on the abortion issue( and most others )

Groups endorse the candidate that they believe will advance their cause.

The presidential primary season is finally over, and it is now time for gun owners to take a careful look at just where nominee Barack Obama stands on issues related to the Second Amendment. During the primaries, Obama tried to hide behind vague statements of support for “sportsmen” or unfounded claims of general support for the right to keep and bear arms.
But his real record, based on votes taken, political associations, and long standing positions, shows that Barack Obama is a serious threat to Second Amendment liberties. Don’t listen to his campaign rhetoric! Look instead to what he has said and done during his entire political career.

I never listen seriously to what anyone says regardless of the letter behind their names. Politicians lie! That is all anyone has to know about campaign promises. Most of what they say they are going to do they can't, either by law or by the circumstances existing at the time...and they all know this. Look at what they have DONE! Generally, they have repeatedly done the opposite of what they say they are going to do, especially if they are lawyers. They are trained to lie or parse the truth. That having been said;

Of course he supports the second amendment. It's in the constitution he will have to swear to uphold.

He mentions common sense laws.
Who's common sense?
The gun toting conservative or the anti gun liberal?

And no discussion of his past voting record on the issue.
Makes me go Hmmmm?
