Carol Bambery is a serious gun rights activist, quite apart from her NRA service.
Carol helped found the Michigan Coalition for Responsible Gun Owners (MCRGO), which headed the successful drive to give Michigan a "right to carry" law. She created MCRGO's Foundation and its political action committee, and serves a president of its Foundation. She is also president of the Illinois Coalition for Responsible Gun Owners' Foundation. When NRA created a Special Committee on Concealed Carry, to draft "shall issue" statutes, she was appointed to it.
As MCRGO's attorney, Carol won a judgment striking down several Michigan cities' bans on carrying firearms in public buildings. Gun Week's report on her victory is here.
Carol was, for some years, the attorney for Michigan United Conservation Clubs, which represents over 470 gun and conservation organizations, and has 120,000 members.
Carol filed friend of the Court briefs in the Supreme Court, in District of Columbia v. Heller and in the pending Chicago gun case. She and her husband Daniel are authors of the book "A Commonsense Guide to Michigan Gun Laws."
As a law professor at Thomas Cooley School of Law, Carol established one of the nation's few law school classes on the Second Amendment. NRA made her chair of its National Firearms Law Seminar, which annually educates hundreds of pro-gun attorneys.
Carol is not only a gun rights activist, she loves to shoot and hunt, and is a member of the Boone and Crockett Club.
