How many of you activated your NRA Armscare Firearms insurance this past week?

kcinnick · Apr 11, 2012

I am just curious how many of you activated your Free/price included Firearms insurance you get with an NRA membership this week. It is unfortunate we had a member loose his only firearm in a fire recently and a free replacement could be had with the NRA insurance. You may not agree with everything the NRA has done, and I certainly don't, but they do a tremendous amount of work to allow businesses large and small sell firearms and firearm accessories.

If you belong to the NRA and have not activated your insurance you can do so at the following link. If you don't belong to the NRA, the cost of membership is cheap compared to all the benefits they offer.

I activated my insurance recently, with some added benefits. Its not so much a fire I'm worried about; I have lots of long guns in a glass gun case and worry about the possibility of theft.

I did- thanks to your suggestion.

I get so much mail- and I have to honest- I never followed up on it. After you made the suggestion, I activated it.....

Awesome, the more that activate the better. I want them to start wondering why so many people from Louisiana are activating the insurance!

Nick, the problem with them noticing increase in activation by Louisianians is the possibility of claims tossing their D&L data out the window & increasing costs!

What is AWESOME about NRA insurance rates is you pay a reduced national rate. Insurance is crazy expensive in Louisiana, but the National rates for business insurance arranged by the NRA are much cheaper. They also got me set up with a merchant account with rates at least .75% better than the next cheapest company and they are firearms friendly.

I did and I thank you for the original link. You can also increase the coverage amount for an additional cost:

Any offers out there for discounted NRA membership going on
Thanks in advance

kcinnick · Apr 12, 2012

I think you can get it for $25 from just about any recruiter. Try going through Geaux Shootin's website. Directly from the NRA is $35, and I think if you buy a Ruger they give you a year, I don't know if that was a special or an every day thing.

I had a year of NRA membership and regretted it. Got daily emails spamming me about life insurance, car insurance, buy this buy that... Got the same in the mail every week. After ignoring the spam for about 2 years it finally slowed down. The last thing I want is to give them a reason to start harassing me again.

They tell you when you apply now that they are going to spam you in order to raise money. I joined the NRA business alliance, and it is invaluable to a small firearms based business. I get daily mail now, but it is MUCH better mail than they regular membership stuff I use to get. I just gave them a junk email address and skim it when I feel like it, but one of the emails saved me $125!

You can easily opt out of their mailing list with a simple email or 2 min phone call. In fact they would have appreciated it so it saved them some money.

I've had armscare for a couple of years now, after every insurance company I talked to wanted an appraisal for every gun. Most places wanted $50 per gun.

I don't mind the NRA mail/e-mail so much. I know that as a gun owner they are the tip of the spear for protecting my rights by keeping the lunatic fringe on the defensive - despite what all the detractors may say.

Who is the group the anti-gun (enemy) politicians and anti-gun groups always mention first when they talk about "the evil gun lobby"? N...R...A

If not for them, none of us can say for sure whether we'd enjoy the firearms freedom we have today.

And- let's not forget on a local level- the LSA (Louisiana Shooting Association) and the great job they do for us right here at home! EVERYONE who's a gun owner living in Louisiana should join up...they have your back!

I love the LSA and the NRA.

Here is my question, why is the NRA lifetime membership a freaking $1000!!?? If they had only 100k people sign up for that, that is a shitton of money!! It is $100,000,000 to be exact!! Just imagine if they had a million, then it is a BILLION DOLLARS!!

I just wish a lifetime membership was more reasonable, that is all I am asking.

Because just like 'The Reverand Jackson' they have NO interest in WINNING, just in prolonging things and profiting as much as possible from it.

I'll not be rejoining an organization with a 100+ year history of being AGAINST gun-owners!
