Best Association to help support 2A Rights?

[ratt_finkel]

Besides the NRA. Are there any other associations I should be donating to in an effort to help support our 2nd amendment rights?

Avoid any of the ones who promote themselves by bashing the others.

Second amendment foundation is very active in the courts, where the NRA is more active in the legislature. the landmark Heller decision derives from the effort of the SAF and it's supporters.

Also look into a state or local group. I am a member of a Florida organization.

Yes, they get total credit for most of the advances in state carry laws.

The best approach is to get active in your state 2A organization, support the NRA-ILA and SAF and personally make yourself known to your elected officials and work in the community to support RKBA.

+1 hso. I put time and treasure into NRA, 2A foundation and the Illinois State Rifle Assoc. Now more than ever, get envolved.

Years ago I bought life memberships to all of them which offered that option. Life Benefactor with NRA and then life with the rest (one didn't do it though) SAF, GOA, and JFPO. Now, also the md gun organization since I'm stuck here for now.

Both my young sons are also Life NRA members now and I have bought gift memberships many years for others. #'s matter in politics!

I didn't join Pink Pistols then but after their latest lawsuit win and in light of the last shooting I need to look into that.

I think the biggest thing is to do SOMETHING and join one or more. Write your local politicians when it is needed, national also as needed.

If every firearm owner joined 1 or more it would be such a strong block that I think they would leave us alone.

The NRA is the 800lb gorilla and the one they most fear so that is the one I would do if that was all you could swing now.

In Ohio, Buckeye Firearms Association and the Ohio Gun Collector's Association. Both work closely with the NRA.
