Anthony bought his first gun days after turning 18, and his first NRA membership shortly after that. A California native, he luckily escaped in 2010 to Colorado.
After finding some legs in local gun rights activism he was appalled to find the legislative overreach in 2013 with the passing of numerous unconstitutional gun control bills in CO.
He joined with others and formed the Basic Freedom Defense Fund, serving as the Treasurer and a founding board member, of the 501c(4) that would remove former state senator John Morse in a recall in Colorado in 2013. The recall was a national first in that it was ran on a platform of gun rights. He worked directly alongside current NRA board member Timothy Knight in this endeavor.
After these experiences he had a wide range of experience in leadership in a number of industries, as well as a deep passion for removing leadership that had overstepped their bounds.
Following that he continued a path in the oilfield, until he went into the trucking industry. Today he is a husband, father, NRA lifetime endowment member, staunch advocate of gun rights, and extremely dedicated to service in the capacity of President of STS in it’s mission to unite NRA membership.
