Member. It only cost me $10/yr without the magazine. I can read it at the barber shop. You should rejoin.

There is absolutely no reason to not be a member if you care even the smallest bit about the 2nd ammendment and gun ownership.

I'm a member.

I wish they'd do a LOT more to restore gun rights in this country, but I figure the membership is worth it simply because politicians look at how many members they have and try to extrapolate and predict voter responses based on that.

Been a member since 2004. Just reupped for another year a few weeks ago.

I wish they would work to get the 89 and 86 bans overturned, but I guess I'll take what I can get, which is relatively decent defense of our firearm rights.....

I think the people who work the gun shows etc.. give out hats when you join.  If you just mail in the renewal each time you do not get a hat.  If you want hats, join or start a "Friends of the NRA" committe in your area.  It is a great thing to do and a lot of fun.

You put on a fundraising dinner each year and get to give away lots of guns and other great stuff.
If you are on the committe you get to help pick what merchandise you want to have at your event.  You go out and get people to donate, underwrite, sponsor etc............



And you get a "Committe Member" hat each year!
If you are the Committe Chairman, you get a "Chairman" hat.
I have a Chairman and 10 Committe hats

First Freedom is pretty much a DUPE of all the gun related news that gets posted in GD

Yes, I am an NRA life member, BUT, I am very disgruntled in the LACK of action the NRA takes in California. It's as if they WANT California to have strict gun control to use US an an example of "what can happen to your state if you don't join". I FULLY believe that if the NRA were to bear down upon California with it's full might, we'd see welcome change in our political climate.

As with any lobbyist group,the NRA can't do anything without sufficient in-state votes to put the muscle behind their position. The CA state government knows that the NRA doesn't have enough CA voters behind it. If the government doesn't fear the voters numbers, why would it listen to the NRA?
They have to pick their battles where they can win them,and for now that's not in CA (or NY, or HI or anywhere else where there aren't sufficient percentages of gun rights voters)
No amount of NRA ads on TV will change opinions. The NRA doesn't change voters opinions-individual gun owners change voters opinions.
