There are 85-100 million gun owners in the US, and only 4.3 million NRA members.
"They" are going to say that MOST gunowners do NOT care if more serious restrictions are put on guns!

If you are not counted WITH us, "they" are going to count YOU as being against us.

We are in the toughest fight of all time to protect the 2nd. They are coming after ALL guns eventually, so don't think for a minute that you are OK because you don't like black rifles or 30 rd mags. If ALL of the ARs and AKs and 30re mags disappeared tomorrow, "they" would start on the next level.
Your deer rifle would be labeled a "deadly, high-powered sniper rifle".
Your bird gun will become a "deadly 'automatic' shotgun that can be sawed off in 5 minutes and spray hundreds of horrific buck shot".
'"They" will want revolvers because a sack of speedloaders could make them WMDs.

Let people who haven't joined yet know that one of the benefits the NRA offers to their members is a free $2,500 firearm insurance. It covers theft, accidental loss, and damage. All you have to do is make sure to fill out the form they send and opt in. That alone is worth the $25 a year. Benefits of Membership

I'm a Life membe rsince 1959 & Endowment a couple of years ago. I contribute what I can afford to NRA-ILA. Don't put an old guy down because he's on SS plus a small pension. I give often but not a great deal. God Bless America & the NRA.

I'm so glad to see this thread. I can't believe the number of posters here that don't have an NRA symbol next to their name. I'm actually beginning to resent it. It's so simple to join and we absolutely have to get those numbers up. You don't have to join for life. You don't have to sign up for three years. Just sign up for one year. Send them twenty five bucks, thirty five bucks, whatever it costs to join at the moment and you're done. You can even opt out of the mailing list. No more procrastination and no more silly excuses. Please, just sign up.

Lee, if I could make a suggestion. when I logged on after work tonight, there were 60 guys in the 2nd amendment forum, 300 guys in the lounge and 1500 in the semi-auto section. Maybe if you tossed a similar thread in there, and maybe every other section too, it might get some folks who might otherwise not see it.

'"They" will want revolvers because a sack of speedloaders could make them WMDs.'

They've been trying that since 1968 GCA, especially any deer rifle with a scope and to a lesser degrees, shotguns and pistols. But they really did almost get scoped deer rifles included. You can bet they'll try for them again this time along with all semi-automatic rifles and pistols.

There is a big button at top left that will take you to the NRA website.
You can join for $25.
You can do any upgrades to your membership by clicking that ad.
We NEED for you to be COUNTED with us!

What Lee said!!!!!!! I just did a $250 upgrade to Endowment, a $25 contribution to the Safe Schools program the're starting and a $25 membership for my wife. If you can't do the $250 upgrade or $300 life, you can add to your current membership at a rate of $25 - 1yr, $50 - 2yr, $70 -3yr and $100 - 5yr. I believe a five year membership still entitles you to vote in the NRA elections. Heck, if there is someone on here who can't even afford the $25, I'll sponsor and pay for one person if others who can afford it will do so also. I'll do it as a one year gift membership for the first person who can't afford it and PMs me. Lee, John, others, who's in?

Aloha,

I must be doing something wromg, I can not find the Icons

I got everything else.

 

[RaceBannon]

I'm in! If things are tight for someone who would like to join. I'd be happy to cover them.

 

[Big Fred]

I'm NOT asking anyone not to contribute, but use that money to sign up other members. I know the NRA can use the money donations, but I think right now the number of members are needed to grow quickly.

If your not a NRA member, shame on you!

 

[pownal55]

If you can afford a gun, you can can afford the NRA membership.

 

[pinduck]

I have been a Life member since 1969 as my signature shows, if you are a gun owner or expect to be you should also be an NRA member.

That was easy! Thanks for the "posting icons for dummies" lesson Lee. I've been a member since '83. I just signed my son up for 2 years for his birthday.
I can't recall when so little meant so much!

 

[digi-shots]

Great idea!

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

I LIKE mine.

 

[Alpo]

Peculiar. I did as the instructions said, and got a message that I had entered "wrong birthday" or "illegal birthday" or something like that. I hadn't even listed my birthday. What the heck, put down my birthday. Now it let me change my profile. But then it told me I had subscribed to two threads. I unsubscribed to them, but why da heck did that happen?
