A regional forum promoted by a Second Amendment rights group will be held from noon to 4 p.m. Sunday at the Poway Center for the Performing Arts.

The San Diego County Gun Owners, which describes itself as a political action committee, is sponsoring its “2017 Regional Firearms Law Conference,” according to a press release. “The public is invited to attend and learn about recent laws regarding firearms, including pistols, rifles, shotguns and accessories such as concealed weapons permits, ammunition and ammunition magazines,” the release said.

Poway Mayor Steve Vaus is identified as an event speaker, but Vaus said his role will be limited to a few welcoming remarks. Other expected speakers are Jamie Franks, a Navy veteran, top competitive shooter and star of two History Channel shows, “Top Shot” and “Top Shot All-Stars;” John Dillon, an attorney who serves as in-house counsel for the sponsoring group; John Phillips, owner of Poway Weapons and Gear, Inc. and Michael Schwartz, executive director of the sponsoring group.

Carl DeMaio, radio talk show host and former San Diego City Council member, will be the panel moderator.

Admission is $20 per person. Tickets are available at sandiegocountygunowners.org.

San Diego County Gun Owners claims a membership of more than 500 members and $200,000 in fundraising during 2016.
