Joseph Olson & GOCRA

The lawyer I spoke with got her degree from Hamline University, and she mentioned that one of her professors was a Joe Olson, who she described as a big 2nd Amendment guy.  The name sounded familiar, like he was involved with the Permit to Carry law passing.  Well, I found his bio on the Hamline site, and he's got an impressive list of publications, including several with Clayton Cramer and David Kopel.

Furthermore, he founded GOCRA in 1989.  GOCRA was instrumental in passing the permit to carry law, as well as legalizing suppressors in 2015.  Prof. Olson stepped down as president of GOCRA in 2013, turning over the reigns to Andrew Rothman.
