The National Fi****ms Law Seminar is held annually as part of the NRA Annual Meetings and Exhibits.

Every year we gather some of the most knowledgeable Second Amendment attorneys and scholars to discuss key fi****ms law topics from across the country. The presentations are top-notch and, because we are the largest gathering of Second Amendment attorneys in the country, there is no other opportunity like it to network and to meet others in the field. For attorneys, the Seminar is also a full day of CLE credit in every state.
