No better time to step up and help defend your 2nd amendment rights by joining the NRA or GOA no better time then the present to do more then complain, it’s your best chance to do something more then complain about what’s going on.

I just added 5 years to my membership try to do what you can with what you have to do your part, one, two three year memberships whatever you can. I don’t take the prizes I can’t see sending them support then getting that back as a prize that could help them even more.

I know a lot of guys step up every year and I thank them but we all need to do a little more over the next 4 years as we will be battling some real head cases in DC.

First, let me say I’ll send some money to them but I hate the fact that we are paying a ransom for a hostage that they will give back and then take again when the urge strikes them. I’m over it. I want a permanent fix and if the court won’t hear it then their silence is consent.

Ready the line!

I wish i had my money back from the NRA. Im good, none of those guys have a chance to stop the commie machine they got rolling.

Let em go ahead and ban everything they want and let em run it into the ground. Maybe then enough people will be mad enough to do something about it.

The title of your post has it right. But for the wrong reason.

Amen. Our Canadian gun rights group is so far winning against our communists order of council. The case has a ways to go but so far they are doing great. Money is tight now for a lot of us, but we need to support these organizations. They are the firewall.

GOA still has my support. No compromise. I have had my fill of gun control. Even NRA supported gun control. NRA is worse than a rattler. A rattler wont pretend its not going to bite you in the but.

They are moving to Texas and getting out of the unfriendly East coast area, they sent the plan to its members they are not going out of business just leaving.

Not that hard to find the story on the web really.

GOA in my opinion is a better organization and get my support. I still support the NRA(life member) but they have become just another wasteful political organization. They need a major overhaul and all of the leaders need to be removed. They have become corrupt and self serving.

I don't know how the NRA works to influence actions, but they may want to follow the example of the Realtors. When it comes to legislative agendas, those folks are mad dog mean. They get together this time of year and will walk 50 constituents into the office of a state legislature and look them in the eye and make no bones about what legislation they want to see passed and what they want to see squashed. When something comes up, a legislature will get thousands of emails and letters. Cross them and they will launch campaigns against you.

It goes way beyond money. It is all about muscle and bare knuckle politics.

Would you trust NY in a lawsuit against you? LOL So join the GOA and quit making excuses to do nothing by not even looking into what’s going on today. SMH

Reminds me of the guys that complain about a union they won’t join. LOL

Unfortunately, there are plenty of examples in other countries where once you've lost your rights there is no getting them back. NRA isn't perfect but I will continue to support. Will also look into GOA.

The media and the left always attack the NRA, am I missing their assaults on GOA? I want to send my money to where it's going to get the most bang for the buck.

I just hope they have someone who can bring in the money by the millions like Wayne can if they can him. There's a reason the NRA has tens of millions to spend getting Republicans elected where the other groups spend a couple thousand on elections.

I do not think the nra or goa will be stopping the socialist machine....these folks stole the government and no one even blinked. They are very worried about a coup.
