Join the NRA. It amazes me how many shooters are not NRA members. I've heard all the excuses. "They're always asking for money." or "What have they done for me lately?" or "I don't like that candidate they backed." or "They couldn't stop that bad legislation from being passed." But, the truth is they are our best ally and resource. With over 3 million members, a ton of money, experienced lobbyists, and full time staff, they do have political clout, and they are the best place for all your research when you want to argue our Second Ammendment rights.
At $35 per year it is very affordable. The magazine is good and there are many other benefits, like insurance. Less than $1 a week is not much money when yuo consider the money we all spend on shooting. Many of the companies we regularly deal with offer discounted memberships with their products. If the NRA requests more money as a donation to fight for your rights you can always tell them no. And if you tell them not to call anymore they do as thy're told.
The NRA and it's political wing the NRA-ILA offer facts which we can use against the anti-gunners emotional arguements. Their website is 24/7 and available to non-members and members alike. Gary S. sent me this link which further explains Obama's anti-gun agenda just this morning. It comes from the NRA.
I think they are the best ally we have available. Please join if you're not already a member. Call 1-877-NRA-2000 or go to https://membership.nrahq.org/forms/signup.asp Do it today.

3 Gun Match Info
3 Gun matches are just like you see on TV. Shooters must have a pistol, rifle and shotgun. The rules are strict and procedures must be followed exactly. We encourage everyone to come out and watch (with proper eye and ear protection) and we'll be happy to explain what you need to do to get started. No one can just show up to shoot. Every one must be a qualified competitor to compete in 3 gun matches. To find out how to become qualified, or see if you already are email webbs3gun@gmail.com

lingsI was trying to think of a way we could try and get USPSA to push their members to join the NRA, we need to get more members into the NRA, the more we have the more the elected officials will take notice when the time comes to vote. For those who want to join and would like to save $10, follow this link to Tom Gresham's site and he has organized a $10 discount on memberships. http://www.guntalk.com/site.php
They still need money to continue our fight, but member numbers help just as much.
OK, i was pissed at the NRA over Heller, but I just (re) joined the NRA.
