I'm okay with this, especially if those luxury spending remarks are true. I'm not registered with any group in particular, but these days, I hear GOA is the one to back.

NRA goes under. Great. Not fighting for our rights. Okay. Now, where are people wanting to build new gun ranges going to get technical assistance? Insurance for their ranges? Who is going to certify their RSOs and instructors? GOA, FPC, 2AF, et al. offer none of those services. And the loss of the NRA is going to have a much larger impact on shooting sports and their availability than a lot of people realize.

Largely agreed; even putting the luxury spending stuff aside (because it could just be a campaign to discredit them) their willingness to "compromise" over inalienable rights isn't encouraging.

But I do think this reeks of a political attack, and I'm not sure the other groups will be able to gather the political power that the NRA has.

GOA is good. They've been pushing a lot of constitutional carry bills, although they try to keep their name distant to avoid the Eye of Sauron. State and local organizations, such as the California Rifle and Pistol Association, tend to be great as well, but check yours out yourself.

They'll just reincorporate in a red state -- their network and assets just don't disappear if they get dissolved in New York.

I'd really like to see LaPierre and his cronies ousted, though. Guy has been using the NRA as a personal piggybank for years, and it wouldn't surprise me if he was a major power behind the compromises rather than hard charging against gun rights infringements.

Yes, their assets disappear if they get dissolved in New York. The network probably too.
