Washington, D.C. — Gun Owners of America (GOA) is thrilled to announce Brownells as the Title Sponsor of the inaugural Gun Owners Advocacy and Leadership Summit (GOALS) in Knoxville, Tennessee this August.

Based in Grinnell, Iowa, Brownells has built an incredible reputation as a leading distributor of firearms, parts, ammunition, and shooting supplies for over eighty-five years. With their lifetime guarantee and superior customer service, Brownells has become the go-to retailer for countless Americans nationwide when it comes to shooting supplies.

Kailey Nieman, GOA’s Director of Development and Marketing, issued the following statement: 

“We are thrilled to have Brownells as our Title Sponsor for GOALS, as their reputation is second to none in the firearms community. Their generous support of GOA’s no-compromise mission is truly appreciated, and we hope to continue to build our relationship, as we come together in defense of our Second Amendment freedoms.  

Brownells CEO Pete Brownell added: 

“For 85 years, Brownells has been the trusted ally of professional and home gunsmiths alike. The constitutionally-protected right to keep and bear arms includes the freedom to customize and build one’s own firearms. As this cherished tradition faces ongoing challenges, Gun Owners of America stands resolute in defending our Second Amendment rights. We are proud to partner with them as the title sponsor of the inaugural G.O.A.L.S. event, united in our commitment to preserve these freedoms.”
