    NRA moving HQ to Texas?

    Just announced on the local DFW evening news: representatives from the NRA are checking out available empty office space in the Dallas/Ft. Worth Metroplex. There is significant office space available as many companies have kept their employees working remotely post COVID 19 Plandemic. State Farm's new but empty City Line campus was under consideration but that site is massive and most likely greatly exceeds the NRA's needs. More likely is the NRA moving to Los Colinas or the Freeport area in Irving, Texas due to its proximity to DFW airport and numerous interstate freeways. Stay tuned!

    A Collector's View - The SMLE Short Magazine Lee Enfield 1903-1989. It is 300 8.5x11 inch pages with 1,000+ photo’s, most in color, and each book is serial-numbered.  Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle. For the record this is not a moneymaker, I hope just to break even, eventually, at $80/book plus shipping.  In the USA shipping is $5.00 for media mail.  I will accept PayPal, Zelle, MO and good old checks (and cash if you want to stop by for a tour!).  CLICK BANNER to send me a PM for International pricing and shipping. Manufacturer of various vintage rifle scopes for the 1903 such as our M73G4 (reproduction of the Weaver 330C) and Malcolm 8X Gen II (Unertl reproduction). Several of our scopes are used in the CMP Vintage Sniper competition on top of 1903 rifles. Brian Dick ...

    Sounds like they aren't actually really moving much. They are getting out of New York, declaring bankruptcy in Texas to remove the threat from the illegal political persecution they are getting from New York State. They will become a Texas entity rather than a New York entity. Most of their personnel are in the Washington DC area which while they are mentioning it, likely won't be affected at all.

    they could move to the moon and i still couldnt care less , NRA , take your money , hound you for more , beg for more , do nothing with the money for you but use it to justify their existence , they once stood for something , they are inert , i would say ineffective but in order to be ineffective you must first try

    all they do now is sit back and watch others take the fight then when the opprotunity surfaces that will benifit them they copy paste someone elses work and shout from the roof tops hey everyone look at me

    last week they tried to weasel in on a pistol brace case , they were told their "help" was not needed or wanted , they ignored and petitioned the court to "intervene" , the judge ball slapped them and embarrassed them stating you waited until now to get involved? thats pathetic when other 2a organizations refuse association with you

    America currently has terrible management but I'm not giving up on it. Same reason I'm not giving up on the NRA. I get the American Rifleman every month and read what the Institute for legislative Action is currently working on. I wonder how much of what we hear about the NRA is Leftist disinformation sown by fifth columnists.

    Most of it probably.

    One thing for sure is we do not need to war among ourselves because division is exactly what they seek.

    I'm an on again, off again member, currently off. The courts are where these decisions are ultimately going to be made and the Supreme Court is secure for the moment.

    Sapper is spot on. Other "so-called" free western world enthusiasts and shooters wish they had an NRA. I heard a speech at the NRA HQ from Peter Laidlericon many years ago that I certainly took to heart about that very thing. None of these organizations are perfect but as Americans, we're very lucky to have them.

    Precisely.

    The NRA will be able to focus on their mission only when the current mis-manager in chief Wayne Lappy is gone. And not until then. Wayne still has money to drain from the institution.
