i oppose the NRA because they do not support black rifles, or "assault weapons". a gun is a gun.
I wasn't aware that NRA did not support black rifles or assault weapons.
I was under the impression that it did support ownership of those.

Gun owners tend to be pretty independant minded folk. Trying to get them all headed in the same direction is pretty tough.Gun Owners that Bash Pro-Rights (Pro-Gun) Organizations...
Do they hurt the pro-rights (i.e., pro-gun) cause in any significant way?
i oppose the NRA because they do not support black rifles, or "assault weapons". a gun is a gun. your fudd rifle is no different than my ak47. both can kill and have the potential to be dangerous

Wow, I just have to get you together with the Hunters who say they don't want to support the NRA because they only care about assault weapons and not hunting. Maybe the two sides could convince each other.
OTOH, there are people who support both religion and the RTKBA. If religion bothers you, don't join the GOA.For instance I won't join GOA because I find they try to extend their reach beyond the 2nd amendment and have a religious agenda as well. I know I'm not the only one here who feels the same way. The directors and members of GOA need to know that their organization could be stronger if they stuck to guns only.
The NRA national matches held every year at Camp Perry feature rifle matches dominated these days by AR's and M1A's. AKs are not allowed in the service rifle category because they are not US service rifles (or something close to one).i am pretty sure the nra isnt hosting a shooting event based on ak47's and ar15's.
From wiki:where was the nra when the klinton ban was pushed through?
having been involved in an NRA affiliated club for many years, I can tell you with some assurance that the benefits for member clubs are not all that big of a deal. However, the yearly dues are not that much ($25 I think) so it is not a huge issue cost wise.One of the organizers recommended that we be affiliated with the NRA, as there are NRA benefits for NRA affiliated gun clubs.
where was the nra when the klinton ban was pushed through? you can post as much bs info as you like, it still doesnt negate the fact that the nra doesnt "like" black rifles. they would be first on the concession list if something had to go.
NRA got the sunset provision put in that caused the AWB to die after ten years.NRA didn't give in or compromise toward the AWB, while Bill Ruger sold us all down the river on the same issue for his own greedy purposes
I am a life NRA member. Also an ISRA member. I had all but given up on the ISRA as the only thing they seemed to care about for many years was hunting and some competitions. In the past few years that has shifted a lot, and they have become much more up front in fighting for the RTKBA in Illinois than I ever thought was likely to happen. Push from the membership I guess.I'm a NRA member and also a member of Georgia's premier group Georgiacarry.org
The NRA is pretty good at giving behind the scenes political organizing help (and some would argue stealing the glory at the end) but does it really matter who gets credit?

but they do not speak out again blatant EBR weapons bans.
so i am pretty sure the nra isnt hosting a shooting event based on ak47's and ar15's.

so no, i will NEVER support the nra. i told the last bunch of idiots at the gun show trying to get me to sign up for the nra, to... well, stick it where the sun dont shine.
its like saying, well i support free speech. but only for me and my friends that speak the same kind of language. no dice. screw the nra.
if they support ALL types of firearms(not just fudd rifles) then i would support them. not until then though. either you support the right to its entirety, or dont support it at all. anything else is hypocritical.
Well I think many people feel any criticism, no matter how well deserved, is bashing. People need to remain vocal about what they like and dislike about their pro-2a groups if we want them to do what we want and get stronger.
Gun owners tend to be pretty independant minded folk. Trying to get them all headed in the same direction is pretty tough.
