As the National Rifle Association grows increasingly out of touch with most American gun owners, the organization still claims more than five million members. A number of corporations are making membership to the group, which opposes nearly all gun safety legislation, more enticing by partnering with the NRA.
After paying the gun lobbys $40 annual fee, members are offered access to a range of discounts and five-star savings.

Send an email to each, you can get a contact form on their website. Simply ask if it is true that they give NRA discounts because if that is so you will no longer do any business with them.
These companies dont care about guns( they care about customers and making money.
