I've been a member for a couple of years now. I'm going to look into the life membership.

Just another thought, if you are looking to buy an new handgun, Taurus offers a years membership, for new or renewal..then you could send $85.00..I just did it that way..ElDee

Mack I was getting the same thing. So at the NRA booth while I was at the sportsman show in Harrisburg I complained. The fellow behind the desk gave me a form to fill out and all the mail stopped. I'll bet I don't get 3 or 4 letters a year from them now. I don't even get the entry to the big gun/hunt sweepstakes. Something you might want to look into.

That's a common complaint but they do it to try and raise money from those who otherwise may not donate. Getting a membership is only the beginning, since many members don't continue to support the NRA financially then they have no other choice than to flood everyones mailboxes with junk mail. I figure most people can easily afford a couple hundred dollars a year and most can afford more than that especially if it's broken up over the year.

I think the point is regardless is that without them we very well may already be like Australia or most of Europe and if we don't want to end up there they are the only organization with the assets both human and financial to stop it.

Golden Eagle and 2nd Amendment member.....when you live in a state like New Jersey and own firearms you find out very early how bad things can get with the freedoms that were originally granted to its citizens. When I visit states with light gun laws all I can say is "don`t stop fighting for your rights" because I know that the people that want to take away these`s rights will never stop.....Give `em hell.......
