[QUOTE="Boehlertaught, post: 2052804, member: 14520"] Give this some consideration. Join the NRA to become a countable number. I realize OSA members in general don't agree with the NRA, but I trust you also agree that the NRA has gun owners general best interest in mind in their political lobbying. I've thought about this number thing today as a result of Alex Jones' visit with Piers Morgan. I believe Mr. Jones' heart is in the right place and his message is sound but I felt his tirade was unnecessary and I felt the the tone of his delivery actually detracts from the strength of our 2A support. Currently there are just over 4 million NRA members. There are an estimated 80 million gun owners in the USA. The NRA is a powerful lobby force today...how strong their lobby force if they has 80 million members? My guess is there would be very little discussion by anyone about more gun control. No doubt it is wishful thinking to get all 80 million gun owners to join the NRA. There's just too many folks that don't give guns much thought that simply will not join but all of us that hunt, target shoot, shoot skeet, etc should consider joining. What do you think [/QUOTE]
