NRA Are You A Member?
I have been an NRA member as well as GOA and also involved in Friends Of the NRA. It's been a few years, guess I'll re up my membership. I really appreciate the NRA!

Re: NRA Are You A Member?
I'm not a member of a gun club or association. I don't think we have the NRA here in Australia. As a serving member of the military, I am a proficient user of our automatic weapon but am slightly dismayed at the strict gun laws here that don't allow me to own a semi-auto rifle without meeting some extremely specific criteria that excludes *99.99% of the population.
* This figure is just a guess to help show a point.

It is interesting how liberal Australia has gone over the past 40 years or so. My dad seriously contemplated moving to Australia back when I was about 10 years old. Probably around 1969 or so. They were recruiting heavy equipment operators as they were experiencing a lot of growth. Now it is just about impossible to get a job in Australia as there are so many restrictions and limitations.
BTW Australia is the next big trip I have planned. Hopefully 2015 or at the latest 2016.

Re: NRA Are You A Member?
I plan to join. Ive avoided membership in the past because I didnt really see the need for them and didnt want the excessive phone solicitations and junk mail they are rumored to send. These days I see the light and plan to join. I will deal with the phone solicitations and junk mail if they come.

Re: NRA Are You A Member?
My Dad has been a life-long member. I remember he used to have this bumper sticker on his truck: I will give up my gun when they pry my cold, dead fingers from around it. 
My husband has been talking about joining. I will probably let the men handle it.

I believe that former President of NRA, Mr. Charlton Heston, made that quote famous!
