I just enlisted again

I'm back in the NRA.
What can I say? Wayne made me a good pitch and included a 10 bucks off coupon...
I had the money on hand anyways = a money order I was going to send to fellow for a knife - but he sold it to someone else - so I went ahead and signed back up.
The only bad part is the American Guardian magazine which I consider USELESS.
All NRA mags are targeted to NEWBIES only and I would love to see one that call it American Defender that caters to old farts and doesnt talk to me like im an idiot.

Still - I'm the NRA... Again...

WooHoo!
:rolleyes:
 
George -
Good point. I love their articles for use when I'm trying to educate a "newbie", but something a bit more, well, advanced, would be nice. Not that I consider myself an expert by any means, but I really do already know the difference between a pistol and revolver...

George, I just "re-enlisted" too on Monday! ;)
I was tryin' to figger' out where to store my gun boxes when out slipped a $10 off coupon from my Springfield Armory box! I had forgotten all about it, called NRA HQ to see if it was still good, and it was.

I'm gonna' see if I can still shoot good enough to get my mug printed in the Nat. Rifleman . . . Again! :eek:
 
"Brown longuns..."
Yeah. I hate those guys with their ear flap hats who tell me:"A sportsman has no need for an assualt rifle."
Great. But I'm not a sportsman, porky.
Well, anyway, I signed up too.
I am the NRA.
 
Well, I cheated. I got a Life Membership when they were cheap. Everything cost less when Dennis was a little kid... :)

I griped about ALL the guns'n'huntin' magazines, one time, about how "newbie" they all were. My comeuppance was along the lines of, "Hey, Art, not everybody has been doing this stuff for thirty years! There's new guys showing up every year!"

And he was right. After all, without the new guys, our group's population would decline, right?

So pass along these newbie-mags to newbies. Explain anything which puzzles them, all you experts! And put copies in your doctor's or dentist's office. Sneak 'em into an insurance agent's or lawyer's office or any politically correct place you know of. We don't give a hoot about converting an anti; we want to pique the interest of the uncommitted.

Isn't there a magazine oriented to the advanced handloader? Isn't there a rather technical magazine from the varmint-hunting world? And I think there's one for the "advanced" rifleman. (Sorry; I've just been too lazy to keep up with some things.)

Regards, Art
