National Rifle Assoc. They protect what they claim is the constitutional right to own guns, although one has to wonder how much they are actually protecting the right of manufacturers to make and SELL arms.
They have a lot of funding from members and manufacturers and use that cash effectively to recruit new members

The NRA stands for National Rifle Association. They support our constitutional right to bear arms, the promotion of fire arm safety and personal responsibility. Their rate has gone up along with everything else in this country ( Inflation ). They have a mission along with many people that support them and it comes at a cost. Those that believe in their mission strongly enough will support them both financially and with their voice. I am one of them.

The NRA believes in the Constitution.
They stand up for the 2nd Amendment, when the Democrats try to do away with it.
The NRA believes that you have the Constitutional Right to use firearms to protect your family from rapists & killers.

The NRA is a gun rights group dedicated to preserving the rights of americans to bear arms, it also advocates firearm awareness and training for gun owners. as far as membership dues are concerned you need to know that they are also a powerful lobbying force in washington and that can be expensive, as well as brochures and mailings ETC. most ppl that are members don't mind the added cost for protection of their rights

National Rifle ***.
They support the 2nd Amendment. Right to bear arms. congress right now is debating on who should have the weapons?? If all people should be allowed to have a gun or their going to try and single it out for the few like cops... but having it illegal for man would just make people get a gun.. no one with a gun means... I have a gun and you done I can rob you at gun point and many poeple as well..
