In response to the President's speech, the NRA has dropped the price of a lifetime membership from a grand to less than a third of that --
just $300. As a reader of the Hall you may prefer organizations like Gun Owners of America, which is certainly understandable as they take a more hard-core line. Still, it's something to consider if you don't want to invest in a new rifle. Guns & ammo sales will be the best rebuke, but right behind that would be a major increase in NRA numbers.
I did tell people to reconsider posting pictures of their guns on their Facebook identity accounts. A lot of people before 2012, didn't really comprehend what open source data mining was. Let alone what else was going on.
ReplyDeleteNot that they are much better now.
I think everybody just jumped on that link, and they stopped it, because it's not there anymore, and the only life membership I could find is $1000 yet.
ReplyDeleteIt may have been one-night-only, but I hope you're right -- I hope they sold so many that they decided it was too good a deal. :)
ReplyDeleteFrontsight has always had a better reputation in some of the circles I've witnessed. The NRA wasn't really mentioned. Perhaps they are venn diagrams.
ReplyDeleteAre you talking about for the purpose of training or the purpose of lobbying? I was not aware that Frontsight had a strong lobbying arm.
ReplyDeletePurely training.
