The fact that only 4% of gun owners have elected to join the NRA speaks volumes about what kind of an organization the NRA is. If the leadership of the NRA was capable ofeven a minimal amount of introspection they would be asking themselves why in a countryof100 million gun owners and 13 million hunters only 4 million peoplehave become members of the NRA. It is certainly not for lack of trying on the NRA's part; who hasn't recieved invitations in the mail askingthe recipientto join the NRA and warning of dire consequences ifthey do not?Yet after decades of intensive recruiting the NRA has only enrolled a very small percentage of both gun owners and hunters as members. There has to be a reason for this.
