I find it interesting that the NRA is so often mentioned in articles about the boycott of the ESOS. The NRA was late to the dance. Vendors and thousands of customers were boycotting the show long before the NRA. Those same people pressured the NRA to drop out of the show.

While I am a member of the NRA, I do not trust them to advocate on my behalf. They are too willing to compromise our rights.

Support Gun Owners of America.

Considering by their own 1968 admission in their own Rifleman magazine that they were behind the 1934, 1936, and 1968 gun control laws I don’t trust them, either. They were the ones that coined the phrase “sporting purposes of firearms”. They NEVER stood for firearms in the context of the 2nd Amendment; they always took the “sporting purposes” stance until only recently. Let’s see the NRA get rid of the 1934 NFA and the 1968 GCA that THEY were instrumental in getting into place. We haven’t seen them lift a finger in that regard.
