Well boys....I picked up a new vehical.  Previously, the NRA had sent me window stickers.  I am sorta considering putting the sticker on.  But also not putting it on.  What do ya'll think?

Mine's proudly displayed on my range box.  Mostly because a) my guns and my interests are MY business, not the next-door-busybody's business, and b) the only people around here who would react positivly to it are people I see at the range on a regular basis.

Not sure on the cars.  Too mobile.  Don't need some flaming lib going off on my vehicle.

I think its a good idea. My dad says some people who dont like the NRA will key my car because i do not follow their viewpoints.  No i dont not drive around with a firearm in the car all the time.

Personally i think i will end up putting it on.  But continue with ya'lls sugjestions!

Every time I see a car with an NRA sticker, I smile a little.
I'm sure that the NRA stickers on my truck make some brothers smile sometimes too.

It's good to make our opinions known.
Learn from the UK gun ban after Dunblaine. Silence about gun ownership and gun rights is what paves the road to confiscation. Let the thousands of Volvo's that pass you every day know that men exist who take their gun rights very seriously. So seriously that they are willing to tell the world about it.

Hell yes I display my support. Any wimp who claims support but needs to hide it in mixed company is nothing but a wannabe and disgrace to what the NRA and the second ammendment stand for. And, by the way, if you don't have the balls to sport your NRA sticker on your vehicle? What the hell are you doing on this website? For that matter what right do you have owning a gun? You don't sincerely support the gun rights movement get the fuck out of dodge!

I've had a NRA, GOA and various gun company stickers on my car rear window for the last 5 years and never had a problem.  No keying incidences or people trying to break in because of them.  In fact, I've had a number of complements about them from folks.

I went back and forth on this for a while and then I drove up next to ---

A Volvo sedan with a 'SHAME ON THE NRA' bumper sticker on it.

That did it.
My 'NRA' stickers went on in full force.

I hate to 'profile' people, but, if the foo shits...these people in the Volvo just LOOKED LIBERAL!  
White, Volvo driving, Nuclear Family looking LIBERAL.
And the sticker just pissed me off.
So there!

I wore my black NRA Sports t-shirt to work last (casual)Friday. My boss walks up to me and says "Is that the NRA that those people belong to who are all radical about...err...ahhh..ummm"
I interrupted her attempt to dance around calling them wild eyed nuts in polite terms with "Their constitutional rights??? Yeah, that's the one"  The look on her face was priceless.

She then told me the story about once being allowed to fire an M-16 once at an organizational day when her husband was in the army.

HELL YES! I have an NRA sticker on my wife's car even. Actually it's her membership for that one, but I have NRA PLATES on my truck as well as the sticker. Never hada problem, and people hardly ever tailgate me anymore!LOL Do it man, let your opinions be known. EVEN IF YOU'RE IN SEATTLE! F**k those liberal bastards.

Don't let anyone scare you away from being proud to be an NRA member.  That sticker does not provide reasonable probable cause for anything.  I am not afraid to demonstrate my support. I've got an NRA sticker, an IDPA sticker, and a Sig Sauer sticker on my truck (have for years), and I've never been keyed, broken into, or searched because of it.  A pickup just looks wrong without one.

I never used to put any stickers on my vehicles because: 1) I never kept 'em long and didn't want to disagree with prospective buyers [;)], 2) I didn't want to invite vandalism by chickenshits that didn't agree with my stickered view but were too cowardly to wait for *me* to mouth off and 3) I didn't want potential bad guys to mark me as "the gun guy".

Then came the Clinton years. Now, I don't give a damn about anything except letting as many people as possible know that the average, clean-cut, reasonably fit, non-DUI, non-wife-beating guy who *isn't* wearing a frigging coonskin cap, hole-y flannel shirt, photographer's vest (covering) a barely-concealed hogleg and untied workboots (on the wrong feet) *is* a gun owner.

Get out there and show the colors, dammit! We've got a PR war to win!

I'd get an RKBA sticker like DVDTracker has.  I just put one on my new car.

yes.

but why stop there?  i also have two bushmaster stickers on my truck.

curiously enough, probably being texas, these didnt stop anybody from tailgating me, as previously mentioned.  what truly, truly, truly has stopped anybody riding my ass is the 16" bushy in the new gunrack back there.  and yes, it has drawn some looks, but mostly from guys in equally large trucks drooling over it like children.

Everytime I get one I put in somewhere so that it can be seen on my vehicle. I do enjoy pulling up next to someone who has one as well and giving each other a little way!

Got it on there right next to my GOA stickers. I then took it to the local Treehugging Lefties book store to get some appropriately libertarian bumper stickers (it's Austin, go figure) to put on the other side of the bumpers... "Vote Third Party", "Lessons of History.." etc.

It confuses the hell out of some people, which is of course the desired effect.

I voted no. I am a Life Member, and support the NRA. I don't want the sticker on my vehicle for 2 reasons. It indicates that there is a pretty good reason to expect that there is a gun in the vehicle to 1-Criminals & 2-Cops. I don't want to make my vehicle more likely than another to be broken into in a parking lot and I don't want a cop stoping me for speeding to have any extra reason to hassle me.

I voted with the third option: you just want to brag about your new truck.  Where are the pictures?

put the sticker on

I have only had one mass state trooper say something about the [url=www.goal.org]GOAL[/url] sticker on my rear window.  He was upset 'cause I didn't tell him that there was a firearm in the car.  When I asked him what made him think there was he said it was because of the stickers and the targets on the front seat, [rolleyes] shot placement envy much.

 Other than that I have never had a problem with police, then again I have only been pulled over twice with my current car in the past two years.

I can't beleive there is any doubt.  Put it on. Wear it proudly.
I 've got the NRA sticker right next to the GO-NH sticker,  complimented by the RKBA sticker, all on the back wind shield.  
What kind of a wuss says:, I'll defend my rights with my honor, with my life, with everything i have.  I just don't want anyone to key my poor car.
(oh, poo-poo, get over it)

I for one am not above sticking pro-gun bumper-stickers on the volvos and saabs, etc i see with anti's on.  They usually have so many stickers from NEA shit to pro-choice shit they never even notice one more.  I draw the line at actual destruction, though, that's just not cool.

As for probable cause- the (bad)cops lie anyway and use any f'ing excuse they want to harras you.  Again- Get over it, its life.  At least when they  think you have a gun they're respectful,  and usually (the cool ones)think its neat and compliment me on it/them.

"Probable Cause" sticker???!!! I agree totally. I have probable cause to believe the owner of the truck is a member of the NRA...
