About a year ago I heard the stat that something like only 3% of gun owners belong to the NRA.
I don't know how anyone can come up with a number like this. No one knows how many guns and gun owners there are. If they say they do, they are just guessing!

Similar to you...I recently joined GOA. I had been on the fence for years, I'm just leery about sending money to any organization and the bigger they are, the more leery I get.
Politicians understand two things: money and membership numbers. That's where NRA has the edge overall the other groups.
