Absolute incredible people here. Probably the best investment I've made in my life. These people are true patriots and sincerely care about your rights. I wanted to give a shout out to Liberty and Emma for being so supportive and helpful when needed. Living in California it is extremely difficult to maintain 2A rights here without complications and never-ending laws changing, but they really went above and beyond for me when it mattered most and I am super grateful to them. Emma reassured me and kept me up to date throughout my situation and I was confident that I was in good hands. I will definitely remain a proud member for life and would recommend anyone that is a 2A advocate to sign up for AOR. God bless.
Response from the owner:Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. We’re especially grateful for your recognition of Liberty and Emma. Living in a state with complex and changing laws can be challenging, and we’re proud to support our members through those situations. Your loyalty and recommendation truly mean a lot to us.
