Hello Wayne,

To be a member at our club you must be a member of the NRA, No exceptions.

Tis odd, isn't it?


Very, but don't worry A few will carry the others, just like welfare.

GUYS!!! SPEND MY MONEY MORE WISELY!!! Now knock it off!.



YOU ARE THE PROBLEM.....................


I agree. But what it really comes down to is money. Some are not willing to spend the money to join the fight. One excuse is as good as any. To many calls. To many mailers. Stood for a position I didn’t agree with 20 years ago. Really it’s an excuse not to spend the money.

No good man, it still costs them money.
Now if their was an group that was free to join and and was spending lots of money to preserve our 2A rights, well then they would be all in, maybe.


No.....there would still be those who would be just fine to allow others to do the work for them as they sit idol and collect the bennifits

LOL that is what I mean. They are too damn cheap to support the 2A while as you state they sit idle and reap the benefits.
They have a list of made up reasons they use except the real one, they are too fricken cheap.

Hello Wayne,

Our gun club is 3,000+ members strong. We also require NRA memberships to belong to our club. I'm proud to have been one of our Board of Directiors that unanimously voted in that requirement.

I personally believe that anyone in America who owns a gun SHOULD belong to the NRA! Our Second Amendment would not exist today if it wasn't for the NRA.

Not a communist brother, just believe a fella should be able to opt out of the NRA and get off the mind control merry go round.

As long as my safe has firearms in it they will get some of my money. Are they perfect? No, but we do need someone to speak for us in an organized manner.

That's a 450ft bomb to straight-away-center – well stated.

Lets go back to post number #1 and take a vote on who gets to define “legit”

I think every gun owner should be a memeber but that just one opinion what say y’all?

YOU ARE THE PROBLEM.....................

An unemployed Jester, is nobody's Fool.

the only real difference between a good tracker and a bad tracker, is observation. all the same data is present for both. The rest, is understanding what you're seeing.

They do spend a bunch of money, I’d say the mailman’s paycheck is safe.

How bout that Einstein who said instead of 5 million should have 40 million comment.

Heck, Thats an easy formula. Lower the price if you are concerned with numbers. Unless the money is primary, its easy to get your support numbers up...it is about representation, right?
