UN Draft Worries NRA

Groups representing private 1)firearms owners have made formal presentations to the U.N. Conference on the 2)Illicit1 Trade in Small Arms and Light Weapons.
The groups say that while they are all against the illicit trade in military weapons, they are also very concerned that a draft U.N. statement on the subject does not 3)adequately 4)define small arms and light weapons.
Thomas Mason of the National Rifle Association of the United States, told the conference that those 5)promoting the draft statement have conflicting opinions about its meaning. "Some assure us that the end result will have no impact on 6)lawful, civilian2 ownership of guns," Mr. Mason said. "Others propose that it could, should, must and will. We can not ignore aspects of the proposal that would affect civilian firearms ownership in the United States and worldwide."
Of special concern to the gun ownership groups is a section of the draft statement that says nations should consider legal restrictions3 on the ownership of small arms and light weapons. The groups worry that language could be 7)interpreted to include weapons commonly used for hunting and sports shooting.
The United States says it will not support the draft statement in its present form and negotiations4 will continue through the week in efforts to reach a 8)consensus by the close of the UN conference on Friday.
