Does anybody even know anybody who joined NRA for the discounts?

To be honest I didn’t even know they offered discounts. My husband is a member and has been for years, he didn’t know either LOL. So this lame “boycott” will not hurt us as much as it has hurt the reputation of many of these companies.

I hope caving to the little Hogg was worth it.

Looking at those two ‘zombies’ side by side - absolutely no emotion or sign they had experienced ‘near death experience’ (at least in their minds) a week ago.

If I were a budding C Manson, I may be looking up these two ‘volunteers’ to the cause...

I joined the NRA for the one dollar off a second meal at Luby’s. It isn’t as good as buy 12 boneless wins and get the thirteenth free at Hooters, but every little bit helps.

The other discount I thought was good was buying a fishing lure shaped as an AR-15. It is part of a larger commemorative set. Once you have the whole set, you can purchase a key ring with your favorite liberal politician with a target hand painted on him. I’m going for that because it’s a lot better than my current key ring.

I have been an NRA member since 2002 and became a lifetime member in June 2016 when I heard Hillary Clinton say on TV that the NRA was her enemy. I decided then to become an official enemy of Hillary Rodham Clinton with no turning back.

No. That said I do use the insurance and EA+ programs.

I never knew most of them existed. I am an NRA safety officer and they post other discounts to us. Many layers in the NRA organization. I never joined for discounts, never used one ever. That is not why I joined or am a life member.

To be bruatally honest I have been an NRA member for years now and I didn’t even realize they offered discounts. I have always used AAA or AMAC (years ago AARP). I did NOT join NRA or GOA for discounts on anything.

I have a flurry of discount flyers from credit cards, memberships and just plain unsolicited mailers. I’ve never used any of them.

... no, but as long as I’m a member, I’d like to see them offer an across-State-lines health care insurance...

I just joined the NRA on Sunday, and wasn’t aware of any discounts until this contrived “controversy” by the leftist loons.

Same here. I joined the NRA because I believe in the right to keep and bear arms and I like to read American Rifleman. I never knew there were discounts.

I’ve been an member of NRA since the early 70s, with a few off periods. I vaguely knew about some discounts but never looked into it, much less used them. I belong to a few other organizations that offer discounts but have likewise never used them.

I know plenty of people who waited to buy an NRA life membership until they could get a hefty discount on the fee. Which only makes sense if you bought a life membership just for bragging rights.

Yes. These are the people we should be listening to about our constitutional rights.

I do not. However, I re-upped with the NRA on Monday and the web site...particularly the “Join” page... was really slow and at times unavailable. I suspect that many folks are joining to show their support.
