The Cornerstone of Liberty with Author Gary Marbut, Montana Shooting Sports Association

Gary Marbut has been working over the last 30 years, actively working through the non-profit, Montana Shooting Sports Association to get over 70 pro-gun and pro-hunting bills enacted into law in the state of Montana.

A former Army veteran and Montana rancher, Marbut has devoted his life to preserving what he describes as our cornerstone of liberty, our right to keep and bear arms. He has also served as a firefighter and Advanced Life Support Paramedic in Alaska and has seen first hand the trauma caused by improper use of firearms.

Gary is a former firearms instructor in both pistol and rifle, graduating over 6000 students qualifying them for a Montana Concealed Carry Permit. He was also the Director and is the current Secretary of the 4000 member Western Montana Fish and Game Association and was appointed by two Montana governors to the Governor's Concealed Weapon Permit Advisory Council.

In 2009 he was awarded the National Grassroots Activist of the Year by the Second Amendment Foundation. He was a also the recipient of the Saint Gabriel Possenti Medal for “Defenders of the Faith”, awarded to one to three persons each year for exceptional contributions to U.S. gun owners - selected and awarded by the Second Amendment Foundation at the national Gun Rights Policy Conference.

He is the author of Gun Laws in Montana, now in it’s 5th edition as well as an e-book called Stories Worth Telling which has a 5 star review on Amazon. (So his stories must be worth telling.) And he is the developer of the Be Safe gun safety program for 1st through 5th grade children, distributed to every elementary school in Montana.

He has been featured on PBS and in The Wall Street Journal and has consulted in numerous federal and state criminal and civil cases as an expert witness and/or legal consultant.

Gary resides in Missoula, Montana where he continues to dedicate his time towards the effort of preserving our right to keep and bear arms.
