You are a donor to Republican candidates and to right-wing lobbying efforts. Take a look at the Board of Directors of the NRA. They're the ones deciding what to support with your money.

I own firearms, too. I could never in my life contribute to the NRA. I am in absolute opposition to their politics. Apparently, that is not of much concern to you. Do you have any idea how many millions were spent by the NRA to campaign against President Obama? Your money went there. Wise up.
