United in our love of the United States, her Constitution and our God-given right to keep and bear arms, the Knox County Riflemen have formed as a grass-roots organization affiliated with the Illinois State Rifle Association, and we stand up boldly for America's First Freedom. Our members are dedicated to education, safety training and support of Illinois firearm owners, and both individually and as a group we strive first and foremost to maintain high levels of marksmanship and firearms proficiency in the unorganized militia of our county.
