The dissertation addresses the expression of ideology of the paramilitary organisation –the Lithuanian Riflemen's Union – in the Lithuanian society in the period 1919–1940. With reference to historiography and the sources, which have been only episodically studied to this day, the paper presents a comprehensive picture of the organisation's activities and its capacity to make an impact. The organisation, which was founded in the midst of the Wars of Independence, was not disbanded after they were over and did not only act in military but also in cultural and sport spheres. The study attempts to identify the causes that determined the establishment of the organisation in the Lithuanian society and its activities before the Soviet occupation despite the continuous political changes. The thesis attempts to determine the scope to which the Riflemen ideology affected the Lithuanian society and its individual segments. The analysis of the relationship of the Riflemen and their ideology with other groups – political parties, public authorities, public organisations and ethnic communities – enables us to determine its level of impact. The research pays considerable attention to the circumstances of formation of the LRU and compares this process with the development of other paramilitary organisations that functioned in Eastern and Central Europe. The paper also reviews the means used to disseminate the ideas of the Riflemen in the society and evaluates their capacity to make an impact with due regard to the general development of the LRU.

Straipsnyje analizuojamas Lietuvos šaulių sąjungos veiksnys Steigiamojo Seimo darbe. Remiantis Steigiamojo Seimo narių biografiniu žodynu, Šaulių sąjungos Centro valdybos posėdžių ir Steigiamojo Seimo protokolais, istoriografine medžiaga, nagrinėjama 1920–1922 metais Steigiamajame Seime dirbusių šios organizacijos narių veikla įtvirtinant įstatymišką Lietuvos šaulių sąjungos pagrindą. Ši sukarinta organizacija veiklą pradėjo vykstant kovoms dėl Lietuvos Nepriklausomybės ir tokiu būdu užsitarnavo Lietuvos valdžios pasitikėjimą. Pagal veiklos principus tai nebuvo analogų neturinti organizacija, tačiau jos veiklą reglamentavo įstatymai – tai Šaulių sąjungą teisiniu požiūriu padarė išskirtine organizacija. Šaulių palaikymas politiniu lygmeniu nebuvo vienodas. Steigiamasis Seimas reiškė pasitikėjimą šia organizacija (pavyzdys – 1921 m. priimtas Lietuvos šaulių sąjungos įstatymas), o Krašto apsaugos ministerija siekė visapusiškai kontroliuoti šaulius, panaikindama savarankiško valdymo galimybes. 1921 m. priimtas pirmasis Lietuvos šaulių sąjungos įstatymas buvo svarbus įrodymas, kad Lietuvos valdžia vertina organizacijos narių veiklą, be to, jis įtvirtino tik dalinę organizacijos priklausomybę nuo Krašto apsaugos ministerijos.
