I was a member for many years. That all changed a couple years ago.

At that time, they were sending out a hunting video, then after a couple weeks they'd send a bill for the video.

With the bill was a letter. It said that if I didn't want the video I was to have returned it in the original packaging. I never read anything that stated that when I first recieved the video. By then, I had already thrown away the packaging.

Every couple weeks they'd send a letter to pay them the money. I never paid. Eventually they left me alone.

A couple months later, I recieved another video. It was the same exact one I received a month earlier.

I read everything on and in the package. There was nothing that said anything about returning the video. After a couple weeks I started getting bills again with another letter stating I was supposed to return the video in original packaging if I didn't want it.

I called the phone number in one of the nasty letters and explained that this was my seond video they sent me. I explained that nowhere did it state I was to return it if I didn't want it. They basically just apologized. I told them I thought it was pretty bad that they would stoop low enough to scam their own members like that. They just apologized and didn't even try to defend themselves. I informed them that I was a member for many years but I would not renew my membership to an organization that would pull something like that.

I couldn't believe they would do something like that. That is a scam in my book.

Somewhere in some forum I posted this and found several others that had the same scam.

I realize they do a lot for our gun rights but I feel they waste too much money. They seem geared toward guys with deep pockets and not us little guys.
