    Gun Clubs & NRA Membership

    My local club requires NRA membership of all members. Just makes good sense. It's one of the best ways they can protect thier business/club, both with insurance for mishaps and insurance that the members/customers will always be able to participate. Not trying to highjack your thread here...
