LOL.

I figured it was time.

Some of you do not think there is an iminant threat to our right to bare arms. I do.

I do not think it is a big issue now, but wait tell a Dem or even some Reps, get back in ofice and you will see them start trying to erode our rights to bare arms again.

I want to be part of the fight to keep them.

I want to be able to buy an evil black rifle again darnit! I never should have sold my AR-15.

It's too cold for bare arms.

Not in sunny CA! Hell I am going to take my M1 Garand to the range this weekend, they are saying low 90s.

Fun stuff.

I do not think we will get any rain here tell Nov.

I bought a Mosin-Nagant 91/30 rifle and will pick it up tomorrow (damn CA 10-day wait crap). I will be heading to the range also with my new honey.

I've also considered joining the NRA. I will look into it again and may pull the trigger.

Have fun at the range boys!

Oh GTO, I noticed you're in Fremont. What range do you go to? I'll probably go to the Los Altos one on Skyline. Have you ever been to the one near Stevens Creek?

I have never been to the skyline range, I hear it is cool cause it has a pit where you can shoot cans and other stuff most ranges will not allow.

I may check that out this weekend.

The ones I normaly go to are Chabot gun club up in the Hayward hills. It is a pretty nice range and the range masters take it serius so no one does dumb stuff. It is a bit stiff, but ok.

I also have tried the one in San leandro, but it sucks, for rifles you have to shoot softnose rounds.

good work guys! We really do need to support the NRA... it is only $35 a year and you get insurance and 12 months of "American Rifleman" which I guarentee that you will find as interesting as any mag you pay $5 a pop for.

Just joining is a big deal... when the NRA can say "we have 5 millon members and we feel that..."

I think I am going to join the Chabot gun club as well.

I need to do something that gets me a certification that says I have fired 50 rounds in some kind of marksmenship program so I can buy a CMP M1 Garand.

Best way to get one cheap.

Way to go...

You are now officailly a part of the largest political lobby group in the US.

Your $35 will go towards a new gold shower spout for one of the directors.

Just kidding guys..please don't blow a gasket.

I joined NRA before I even had a gun.

GtoRA2 · « **Reply #12 on:** October 24, 2003, 02:31:38 PM »

Curv,
I see it as, I just joined the special interest group that protects all others rights.

If the second amendment goes, the others will follow.

The NRA does what it claims, they protect my right to own firearms.

I held of cause my dad was not a big NRA fan, kinda wacky but he was convinced they have members list with addresses and he thought that was an invite to a theif.

I don't think this is true, though I used my non home addy.
