This article is why I have been saying that if you want to protect your 2A rights, it is better to support and send money to the NRA and other gun rights orgs than buy an Armalite AR-10.
Why not do both? In buying the gun you are stimulating the economy and putting folks back to work. Of course as much as 90% of the money donated to these organizations goes to infrastructure support rather than directly to the lobbyists. The donations (at least in the case of SAF and CCRKBA) go to pay salaries, employ secretaries and assistants and the like. That's one huge reason these groups aren't as big as NRA nor are they as efficient.
