Would you join a gun club that required NRA membership?

Out of respect for the OP, who specicaly asked only for answers to his questions and not turn this into a what I like/dislike about the NRA. I will try to hold my tongue about all of the pro NRA banter going on. I will say this, If I am going to support any cause, I do research. I want to know where my money really goes. I think if people really stopped to take a look at the bowels of what happens with the NRA, they would reconsider their funding an organization that is HELPING to erode our 2nd amendment rights.......
Im sorry if this offends people, but its true.

Put ALL your verification into ANOTHER thread, out of respect for the OP please, and we can go from there on this subject.

Thank you
 
I knew that would happen. People can say what ever they want about the NRA in this thread, as long as its positive. Do your own homework.
 
Yes.


I have in the past and I would in the future.


Of course I'm an NRA member regardless. They aren't perfect but they are on our side!
 
In answer to the OP's clearly stated question:

Yes, I would and did join the NRA to join a gun club. They said that it is necessary for the club insurance; I have yet another hat. Win/win.

You made the statement, you do the back up. I quit doing homework back in 1961.

Either that or you're bluffing, which I surmise is actually the fact.


Back to the OP's question, one club is more than likely for insurance and range improvements which they have given us thousands in the last couple of years. The other clup, I have no idea, I know its not for insurance as we are covered by other means.
 
Nope. If I wanted politics, then I'd go to a forum. An NRA only club will likely be highly politicized, plus being a Liberal, it would be incredibly vexing to pretend to put up with that sort of environment. I'm already an NRA member. Finally, I don't shoot nearly often or well enough to justify the expense. I joined the NRA to advocate my gun rights and do nothing else.

No it isn't true.

P.S. - "I will try to hold my tongue about all of the pro NRA banter going on." Note that you failed.

Be all that as it may, the OP did ask folks to not bring up the anti-NRA debate in this thread and Bently4700 has been accommodating enough to try and abide by that.

If he feels like airing his grievances, he's been invited to do so in a thread of his own. (Though, I'd suggest searching the archives to see if one of the dozens of NRA-bash threads is still open, before starting another.)

Let's stop dragging that out here.
 
I belong to a great range. Even if I had to join the Harry Potter fan club I would, to keep my range membership. :D
 
Our club gets it's insurance through the NRA and is required to maintain a certain percentage of NRA members so we require ALL club members to be NRA members. This includes Paid, honorary, law enforcement, and life members.

I do not agree with everything about the NRA but I voted for the rule and support it now 15 years later.
 
No. I would never join a club that REQUIRED me to be a member of some other organization. If the gun club said I had to be a member of the NAACP or a Catholic should I join? There are other organizations that support the 2nd, do they require membership in those orgs?
I have been a member of the NRA for 11 years now. I am also a member of the republican Party but I think they are a bunch of goofs just like the Democratic Party. I just seem to have more in common with the Rep goofs than with the Dem goofs.
 
1. Yes
2. Yes, matter of fact I did join the NRA due to it being a requirment to join my gun club.

While I may not agree with all of the legislative agendas of the NRA, the day I unboxed 6 .22 rifles and 3 shotguns that were donated to the club (through a grant) by the NRA for our youth programs was the day I decided it was well worth it.
 
I was a life member long before I joined the gun club, but yes I would join a club that required membership in the NRA.
