You might get some replies about junk-mail and folks being tired of the request for donations, but this isn't one of them. Thank-you for your support. I went life-membership in 91, wish I could find the funds for Endowment...
There's a place in the customer service section of the NRA site that will allow members to opt out of the mailings. Sure worked for me! I probably only get 2-3 mailings a year on specific issues.
Congrats. I'm tired of the junk mail and other crap they send out, but overall I am happy with the work they do and have thought about becoming a lifetime member myself. Congrats again.
Good on 'yer. The NRA is too important to our rights to be concerned about the junk mail issue. I just treat it like all junk mail and toss it as soon as it's through the front door.
I'm a poor college student, and I can't quite afford the 1k, but I just re-upped for 5 years after three years of single-year renewals. Doing the best I can until I have the cash to lock it down for life.
It was that or Trijicons for my Beretta PX4. The PX4 has good steel sights, and in five years I'll have plenty of money for that.
Welcome aboard.
I've been a Life Member since 1972. Back then it cost only $200.
I wish every gun owner would join the NRA. Instead of around the current 4 million members, imagine the political strength of a 40 - 55 million member organization!
