Thursday Morning Riddle

I bid Ernest farewell and think Shaw is the man;
I’m a word used to fight the assault weapons ban;
I’m a place where a farmer might get a good tan;
And a common design that is worn by your clan.

Who am I?

UPDATE: Riddle solved by Lee. See comments for answer.

    I do believe the answer is ‘arms’ . . .

  2. Bill Says:

    ARMS is correct! Congratulations, Lee!

    Line 1: A Farewell to Arms; Arms and the Man

    Line 2: Opponents of the ban often cite the constitutional right to bear arms.

    Line 3: A “farmer’s tan” is just the arms (or arms and neck).

    Line 4: Heraldic arms
