"Why not do both?"

Absolutely. You can never have enough freedom guns. What I'm saying is that if you buy your AR-10, but can't afford the $35 (only $25 with a lot of the specials going on) to join the NRA then IMO your priorities are wrong. By supporting the NRA and other gun rights orgs that speak for us, we keep the option of buying that AR-10 for the future.

So many people talk about Molon Labe and I'm going out shooting when they come for my guns. It doesn't have to come to that. Let's fight these people within the framework of the current government first before it comes to a shootout with the ATF. There are something like 180 million gun owners (whatever the number), there should be at least that many members in the NRA.

Thanks for those words of wisdom.

I didn’t see lines to help McCain/Palin at the Republican headquarters but I do see lines at the gunshows.

I don’t see people spending the money to join the NRA but they have money to spend on guns and ammunition at three times the price.

People who bitch about a few NRA letters in their mailbox won’t be the ones defending their freedoms when it gets bad.

And it’s going to be really, really bad.
