Talking with Rick the other day it appears that the government is making this as hard, drawn out and expensive as possible. Having to use information requests for several things, which takes time.
He has spent a great deal of time in assisting others with their actions. Looked like he had about 7 yellowpage phone books size wise in affidavits for the Hipwell case. Another stack of documents for the action Arkadi is dealing with. Busy guy to be sure.
I won't say anything that I learned talking with him about his action, I will let him divulge what he feels he can, but Rick deserves as much support as possible for his commitment to the firearms community.
