What do we get from our dues? I think you are better to send your dollars to the NRA, they fight for our guns rights not IDPA. Does IDPA send part of your
dues to the NRA? Looks like it gives Wilson free advertisement for Bills guns and parts in the TJ and charge's the other's a fee to run adds. I bet
the adds pay for most of the TJ cost if not all.

Tim,
Look down a thread or two: http://idpaforum.yuku.com/topic/5222 It's been discussed ad nauseum, and quite recently too. Koski |

Thanks Steve, but I think that the NRA is a better spend for the dollar and I think some may want to read this post. again and again. Tim S. |

Barking up the wrong tree Tim. I'm pretty sure most every one here pays dues to both places. Don't beat up on Bill either. I'm pretty sure he and
the other founders didn't start this thing to make money. If the wanted to make money then why do they only charge 40 a year. There are no "cash
flow" fees in this sport like USPSA where a little bit of money is always flowing in. No they did it because the saw a void that needed to be filled. A
concealed carry sport. I send my money to IDPA because I like shooting this sport with my friends. I'll continue to pay my money so that some one keeps
sanctioning these matches and taking care of all the other administrative stuff that I have no interest in. The NRA does fight the good fight as far as our gun
rights go and I will continue to support them in that endeavor but I'm not at all impressed with how they handle the matches that they sanction. So
i'll keep sending them both money for different reasons.
P.S. 30000+ members actively participating in a shooting sport isn't the worst thing we could do for our gun rights!!

Ken
I didn't see anything wrong with your campfire statement, it made me laugh where the other post didn't. |

I'll say it then.
This "Tim Stuart/Stewart" guy likes to stop by every so often and pee in the campfire. Koski |

I guess a campfire is better than an electric fence, but then again, it depends on your perspective...
