We didn’t join for the discounts. I think the husband joined for the magazine. ;) Gun porn.
The Kid is nothing but a modern day Brown Shirt and his actions remind us why the Founders in their wisdom said the RIGHT to Keep and Bear Arms “shall not be infringed”.
You will also notice that these attacks from the Left are not just on the RKBA, but Free Speech itself.
One word answer regarding my support of the Second Amendment, “Liberals”.
They are nothing but
I always thought everyone joined, so the NRA would have money to protect our 2nd Amendment Rights. There’s Discounts TOO?
Nobody should a group for retail discounts. You can get low fares on airlines from a hundred free websites. You can get low room rates at hotels and for rental cars the same way.
In fact the best way to get the best possible deal on a car rental or a hotel is to call them directly and negotiate yourself. A few years ago mu wife got a 1 week rental on a Cadillac SUV for less than the published discount price of a mid-size sedan, all with no mileage charge. We have gone to Hilton Head 7 times and never paid anything close to the deepest discount on condos.
The best deal we got was a waterfront 1,200 sq. ft. condo on Hilton Head for $350.00..for 3 WEEKS! Just remember to airline rule....an empty seat on a plane that WILL fly regardless of how many passengers on it, is a loser for the airline...any money made to fill the seat is money found.
The same rule applies to car rentals and hotels/condos...any day that the unit is not generating revenue is a lost day...they can’t get that day back.
No one joined for the discounts, but I’m hearing a lot of people are joining in retaliation to dropping of them by these companies.
This Ping List is for all things pertaining to the 2nd Amendment.

Does anybody even know anybody who joined NRA for the discounts?
....or the free magazine, or the pocket knife. No, we join the NRA to preserve our rights under the 2nd amendment. Renew and join.
I have never used an NRA discount for anything.
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.
seriously, does anyone actually pay list price for travel?
... 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.
I didn’t know there were any 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.
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.
I join on Presidential election years. That’s usually when I need a new NRA Duffle bag too:-) But tomorrow, payday I rejoin with vigor.
