i just sent in an application to join a range where nra membership is a must. so looks like i need to send the nra a check and renew my membership. not something i particularly want to do but if i want to have a place to shoot i dont have a choice.[:(]

Your welcome [}:)]
melkor. thanks for the advise. but im not out to screw with anyone. ill pay my dues and be done with it.
Pay with credit Card for lifetime membership, when U get your nonsense, do a chargeback for there fraud and lies. U get your nonsense range requirements and NRA is out $5 in fees and paper.
Your welcome [}:)]
Cute !
The only problem is that the NRA sends a list to the clubs .
Found this out last week .
One learns to use the enemys' tools...against them.
Unless you want to see Waynes pic in the magazine, I would go that route, and cut down on the amount they get.
After you are in,.....talk to others, and create a stink after you have some dissenters like I did.
No more NRA requirement for me at my range.
Not an option at my range, however they have a two tier membership fee program where the non NRA member (I am one of the very few) pays $ 30.00 more per year than an NRA member.
Josh, you may want to ask if you can pay the range the NRA yearly membership fee directly. They may use it to sign someone else up, or they may pocket it. It may be a way out for you, however.

Marc,
I like the way you think.[;)][:D]
A good option if available, Marc.

Don,.....I see this coming most likely by next year at mine.
Some of the old timer life members are still trying to create a stink with the board members over changing the NRA requirement for the primary member.
I personally would prefer my range get the extra money to make improvements.
Sure you most likely feel the same.

Thanks Shane,.....I have a big mouth believe it or not.
I am not the most liked person out there by many of the old timers though![:0]
As I just posted, I expect a 25 dollar or so extra fee coming for non-NRA members, but at least I got enough folks together to fight them. Ultimately they did not want to lose our memberships, as we have brought a number of new folks in.
I did a lot of talking with the Treasurer, and pointed out the stupidity of the NRA or your gone idea. Guess the board saw the light.
Actually our Treasurer ended up agreeing with many of our points, and he has now gone to an "associate" membership himself. He is in his fifties.
I have NO problem paying them the equivalent of an NRA membership.
At least it will go towards direct improvements to our facility, and not into Wayne's pocket.

Marc, so do I.
Oftentimes, not being popular or well-liked most likely means you are on the right track.[;)]
