Now that you are a member start attending NRA sanctioned events. Attend Friends of the NRA banquets in your local area which supports the kids shooting safety and education with every dollar raised. Great time and a place to meet the normal everyday folks in your area that think likeminded. Gives a good perspective on the heartbeat of the masses rather than the LSM. Attended one last night and had a blast. About 1000 people in attendance. Took my nephew and he was ecstatic not to mention the old gal. Get involved and get to know who is also.
We have a local group called “S.C.O.P.E.” that has been trying to unseat the “SAFE” act. Until King Kuomo is out, then there’s little hope of that. I have gone to several meetings. https://scopeny.org/
