The National Rifle Association (NRA) has added 500,000 new members over the last month and a half.

Jacqueline Otto, media liaison for the NRA, spoke to CNSNews.com and confirmed the new membership numbers:

"We mark that [membership increase] from the, you know, Congressional calls for gun control and President Obama's executive orders and things like that. That's what's driving the increased membership."

CNSNews.com asked: "That's approximately over what time span then?"

"A month, month and a half," Otto said.

I sent some extra bucks for the NRA with a purchase from Cheaperthandirt.com. I bought ammo and they delivered within 4 days.

Hey! Don't forget the Guns Rights Organization born right here on FR! Second Amendment Sisters! We're signing up a whole lot of new members, too. I think people are seeing the handwriting on the wall...

Me and a coworker agreed. We don’t have to join anything. We were born into it.

But the MSM reports more people want gun control. Their lame-azz polls show it.

Funny you should say that, if the NRA truly was our Union, then we as Proud Union Members would have the “Implicit” right to use “VIOLENCE” to further our cause, per the US SUPREME COURT,CONGRESS, and even El Presidente himself, not to mention HALF the STATE LEGISLATURES. So Maybe we should hold a Vote among NRA members to become a qualified labor Union, with the Absolute right to use legally sanctioned violence.

Doesn’t matter how many members the NRA has, that is no deterrent to the left. What matters is what these members are willing do when crunch time comes, and it is coming. The commies are going for all the marbles.

Decorated vets getting arrested for empty mags? Think these people give a crap about NRA membership numbers? This is about control, not popularity.

DEAL OF THE CENTURY: Tom Gresham (of radio’s Gun Talk fame) has arranged with the NRA to allow his listeners to sign up for a Lifetime NRA membership for only $300 - a $1,000 value!

Just call the NRA at the special number set up for this deal: 1-888-678-7894.

Yes, it matters a lot. The number of members the NRA can claim swings a lot of weight in D.C. Algore's defeat was credited to NRA influence and the defeat of dozens of other anti-gun Dems in House and Senate races over the years.
