I am a life member of the NRA, I am extremely proud to be so and it enriches my experience exercising my 2nd Amendment right in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. Two of my closest friends, who are big gun guys like myself are not NRA members and always shy away and make excuses every time I bring up the subject of becoming a member. One friend is concerned about the price of a basic membership, yet spends the money on AK/SKS supplies every time he has change in his pocket. What can I say to convince them the benefits of NRA membership?
