This seems to be an update on the numbers of members currently claimed by the better known pro-2A groups:

Do your own research and support any and all you can afford. As others have stated, I too am retired and my limited budget does not allow me to support all that I would like, but with due diligence I support those that I can.
Don't want to join one organization or another, here's a great resource that can always use a few bucks to carry on their great work in 2A preservation. Dr. Lott is also a great resource for
facts actually based on research, not feelings which fuel the other side!

With Senator Joe Manchin (D-WV)
starting to shift his position on filibusters, the odds that gun control and many other types of bills becoming law are significantly increasing. The likelihood of the two gun control laws passed by the House this week becoming law is much more probable. If you are interested in my take on those two bills -- Universal Background Checks and the dishonestly named Charleston Loophole --, you can listen to radio interviews that I did on the bills
here and
here. These laws will disarm the law-abiding poor, make it so that you can't lend guns to those in danger unless the threat is literally right there in front of them, and create up to a month-long waiting period for gun purchases.
Over the last couple of weeks, both Nikki Goeser and I testified before state legislative committees. Nikki testified before both the
Tennessee state House and Senate in support of lifetime orders of protection, what some are calling Nikki's Law. You can watch her testimony, which was very powerful, and the bill passed unanimously out of both committees. She also has
an op-ed on the bill before final vote in the state House this coming Monday.
At the invitation of members of the
New Mexico House Consumer And Public Affairs Committee, I testified on
laws prohibiting government seizure of guns during emergencies and the
Tennessee state Senate on Constitutional Carry. In preparation for that testimony, we collected data on state laws that
allow people to carry openly without a permit, the
age limits for Constitutional Carry, and
state laws prohibiting the seizure of guns during emergencies.
At the Conservative Political Action Conference, I interviewed everyone from the
Buck Sexton Radio Show to the
Larry O'Connor Radio Show, covering topics from what it was like working again in Washington, DC Biden Administration has in store for us. For a day, I walked up and down media row, picking up over a dozen interviews.
Finally, the massive gun control push continues on entertainment television shows. It is impossible for the shows ever to have successful defensive gun uses.
CBS's Blue Bloods has a jewelry store owner get fatally shot because he tried to stop people from robbing his store. He wasn't able to shoot any of the robbers.
CBS's Magnum PI has an army soldier try to commit suicide with a gun because he was illegally sold a gun by a licensed gun dealer. Other shows have
a crime wave by white nationalists and more shows
having machine guns being used by criminals.
