THIS IS NOT A SURPRISE
The NRA is not a pro gun organization. They are a pro gun control organization. (As opposed to anti-gun organizations like HCI, the NAZI party and the Democratic party) There hasn't been a major gun control initiative that they haven't endorsed, including GC68 GC86, and the Brady law. The NRA has a strategy of preemptive surrender - let's give it away quick before they come and take it away. Pro gun organizations such as JPFO and GOA work against gun control as opposed to the NRA which is always trying to "work with" politicians. But, even GOA has had it's lapses.

After GOA's LIES in Michigan, they aren't worth a bucket of warm spit. (JPFO is alright)
They called two pro-2a reps anti-gun.
They said that the shall issue bill was not shall issue and was on the same side as Anti-Self Defense jerks like Mike Duggan and MPPGV
They said they were working on a good CCW law in Michigan with a state senator, they never contacted him. Another lie.
It was the NRA, and only the NRA that helped us in Michigan get rid of that awful discretionary law. The NRA helped give us the heads up when prosecutor Dunnings tried to overturn the law.
The NRA is the best org out there. This bill, which I do not support, is not really an anti-gun bill that takes away rights. It follows existing law. The NRA is staying out of this one, probably for that reason.
The NRA is not perfect. As for GOA, I've personally done more in a week, then they have ever done, at least in Michigan. I've never seen GOA set foot in my state, and this is a swing state.

First, you have to convince me that the GOA does anything before I would even consider joining their group. Second, you're going to have to tell me where in the He!! the GOA has stopped any gun legislation. Third, why is it that no one and I mean no one has even heard of the GOA outside of a few thousand gun owners? Fourth, if the GOA is such a powerful voice, why is it that the media has never once mentioned them?
