NRA Free 1-Year Membership

[TDE30]

It was my understanding that this decision would make guns easier for anyone to access, however that seems to not be the case. I just don't see how the NRA having a sudden boost of members is going to anything to sway the government's decision on outlawing guns. The only thing I have heard mentioned about the banning of weapons has to do with assault rifles, so why is that a bad idea?

z31, another excellent contribution.

Shh, go finish your bag of bolts turbo build.


Maluco, sure they're just trying to build up their membership numbers, but this seems like an odd way to go about it. Is a NRA membership and a basic background check enough for anyone to go out and buy a gun, or do they need a gun permit as well? If a NRA membership is all they need to acquire a gun, then this seems like a reckless decision IMO.

hahaha, If your going to bitch about guns at least do your homework and know what your talking about first. That way you can bring some intelligent criticism to the table...

Maluco! Thanks for the heads up! I joined and will get many of my friends who have been putting off joining to join.

So the only thing gun control laws would do is disarm the responsible citizens and leave them sitting ducks to criminals.

OH NO YOU DII'NT... just bring up something as irrelevent as my father having an off in my brother's old E30 with zero tread rear tires. Wow, if that's all you've got, then I really am screwed.

Irrelevant? Is that like responding to a comment with

Besides being completely ignorant to the legal gun purchasing process, you seem to think people with registered guns are going to contribute to violence, but you would have to be an idiot to kill someone with a gun registered in your name. Making guns illegal is only going to contribute to black market power. I am literally one phone call away from having a fully automatic AK-47 in my hands, do you think that is going to change when guns are made illegal? Do you think crime lords will become less powerful when the only way to get guns is by contacting them? Making guns altogether illegal is going to do the same thing Prohibition did in the '20s.


Oh, and thanks for the link Maluco, I just signed up.

So in your case IMO really doesn't mean much.

In Texas you can buy as many guns a day as you can afford as long as you pass a 5 minute background check. An NRA membership does nothing for you regarding the purchase of arms.

don't waste your time, he even said in that post that he knows nothing about purchasing a firearm.

You don't need a permit unless you are buying a handgun (& 21). You only need to be 18 to buy a rifle or shotgun.

And MOST of the guns used in crimes are guns that were not bought legally. So the only thing gun control laws would do is disarm the responsible citizens and leave them sitting ducks to criminals.

An NRA membership isn't going to cut it if you want to buy a gun. There will still be background checks and a waiting period, and depending on the state an additional license for handguns.

When I got my c&r license, the NRA called my house everyday trying to get me to join. I refused because I believe all lobbying is wrong. And I fucking hate the fact that they got my number without me giving it to them.

I've had pretty much all the e30 lights on my car at some point in time, sans the ebay angels. But not mixed together. And I did my swap 2ish years ago at my house, not the shop ;)




But anyway, I am and have been for years a life time member of the NRA :twisted:
