Most effective gun rights organization.
Time to up the ante, and acquire a lifetime membership. NRA, GOA, SAF, NAGR.... etc.
Which is the most pro-active orginization to donate my hard earned bucks to?
I don't want my money to go to someones country club dues instead of going where it is needed.
With all the bull$hit circulating in the media, it's hard to decide. Maybe some of you with a little more insight than I have can put in their two cents...

Re: Most effective gun rights organization.
Like someone here suggested, perhaps the best bet is to support the NRA, but to work to make some serious changes in the organization. IMO the folks in charge need to have their priorities modified, or they need to be replaced.

With that aside, I always feel good sending support to GOA.

Re: Most effective gun rights organization.
for state of Arizona, would be Arizona Citizens Defense League, they have done more in this state to preserve rights than the nra has for sure.
every gun owner in Arizona should be a member
of course just my opinion
I stepped away from NRA a tad before the pierre shiat came out, its been long known of his extorting and cheating bull shiat, and still they give the sucker huge raise, now go figure a half a mil, plus bonus.
give me a fricken break is it to grease the wheels for him

Re: Most effective gun rights organization.
I won't debate if they are "effective" but the NRA needs cash to pay for the 57% pay increase for their CEO. In 2018 $2.15 million total compensation: "LaPierre received a base salary of $1.3 million, plus a bonus of $455,000 and “other reportable compensation” of more than $427,000, the filings show. LaPierre also received an additional $73,793 in “retirement and other deferred compensation” and “nontaxable benefits” from the NRA and related entities, according to the filings, which the NRA provided"

Re: Most effective gun rights organization.
Goa is good but I like to support local. AZ CDL is great. Just like the Marijuana thing and several other initiatives when the number of states legalizing something reaches a tipping point the fed MUST follow. Some counties are becoming 2A sanctuaries and 46 states the RKBA in their constitutions. If we can get enough states to abide by their own constitutions with local pressure the Fed will have no choice but to correctly abide by “shall not be infringed”
In case you didn’t know, Amazon will give .5% of your purchases as a donation through their “smile” program. AZCDL can be named as the charity.
Nothing better than to have Jeff Bezos support a local 2A action group. You have to register the charity you are supporting and enter Amazon through their smile portal and that’s it. AZCDL gets .5% of everything you spend at Amazon.

Re: Most effective gun rights organization.
GOA has done very little to help gun owners, but they do talk a good fight.
AzCDL locally and the only Nationally viable one is the NRA, whether we like it or not.

Re: Most effective gun rights organization.
Congrats, great choice. Look at their web site an learn how to use "Request to Speak". You will get notices of legislation coming up that affects gun owners and you can share your thoughts in writing with the legislature. You don't have to go take the microphone if you don't want to but you can also request to speak at the meeting.

Re: Most effective gun rights organization.
Excellent point,... one I have made here multiple times!
Demonscats whine like little girls when they think about the amount of influence the NRA has in DC. Even with all its faults and corruption, they do know how to play the game!

Re: Most effective gun rights organization.
Congratulations to you for joining the AZCDL. The best organization for the gun owners of Arizona.
Re: Most effective gun rights organization.
For those of you who say the GOA is the most effective, exactly where are they in the case currently before the Supreme Court Of The United States that may shape our future? Nowhere to be found. The NRA is there, though.

Supreme Court may expand Second Amendment rights despite repeal of disputed gun restrictions
WASHINGTON – The Supreme Court may be on the verge of expanding gun rights for the first time in nearly a decade. What's surprising is how it got there.
The court on Monday will hear a challenge to an obscure New York City rule that set such rigid restrictions on transporting legally owned guns that it was repealed in July.
But it turns out that wasn't what they really wanted. Backed by the National Rifle Association and the Trump administration, the challengers to New York's abandoned restrictions are hoping the high court refuses to declare the case moot. That would give them a chance to win the biggest Second Amendment victory since landmark rulings a decade ago affirmed the right to keep guns at home for self-defense.
Faced with a defunct ban on transporting guns outside city limits, the increasingly conservative court majority could render a decision making clear what some justices believe: that the Second Amendment extends beyond the home, and that lower courts should view state and local limits on carrying guns in public with skepticism.

What a fracking joke!!! The Human Right to self defense is (as our forefathers have written) INALIENABLY ENDOWED BY OUR CREATOR upon and within all Human Beings!
Never read a caveat clause declaring RIGHTS INALIENABLY ENDOWED upon AND WITHIN A DOMICILE!!!
Pretty frackin sad that our Human Rights have reached this level of infringement, that we have to have our Government Servants try to clarify, that which has been perfectly clear, for centuries!!!
