GOA's most recent accomplishment is bringing to light the back room deal the NRA made with the democRATS to get HR 2640 passed in the house! I'd say that's pretty big. There are a lot of us NRA members that aren't happy with that! I'm tired of the NRA compromising away my RIGHTS. If the leadership had any balls at all they could help to roll back the unconstitutional infringements on our gun rights instead of cozying up to the communist/socialist/leftist gun grabbers.

The NRA is the most powerful gun lobby now. They used to be a good organization and built their base on that reputation. I wonder what their membership and power will be in 20 years after they’ve alienated all the potential members.
They waste an enormous amount of money with their mailings. Money that could be spent for education, lobbying, events and all kinds of things to education people. The gun control crowd only succeeds where people are ignorant. Once people see a firearm as an important tool it no longer becomes this self possessed incarnation of evil as portrayed by Brady and company.
So adding together their waste and their policy of compromise I cannot see a reason to support them. There are other organizations actually fighting for our Constitutional rights and not our right to hunt.
