Hart Custom Rifles is humbly honored to be able to present to the NRA the first gun signed by a sitting president. Furthermore, Bobby Hart is very humbled to have the Trump family as personal friends and to know that we have a president that believes and supports our 2nd Amendment rights and who is making this country free and safe for all people of this great nation. Together we will make this country great again.
