Link? Info?

[Mike1951]

This has been offered periodically. If it is in effect again, I'll provide my info for anyone wanting to join.

[smilner01]

The website is www.NRA-2012.org. You have to have a current life member "sponsor" you, with their nra#, and zip code if completing online. There is also a you tube video that shows the steps.

Hope this helps, I am so grateful to the member that sponsored me. And to all the life members, the website said there was no limit on sponsoring people, I think they must be on a huge membership drive, so if you feel inclined I know your help is appreciated!!!

mike1951 - I pm'd you regarding the $300 NRA Life Membership. I'm a 5 year annual member and would love to upgrade to Life for $300. If there's another Lifer on here that is willing to sponsor me and pm their info, I'd greatly appreciate it.

purplehood - if you see this and are still willing to sponsor a new lifer, please pm me with your NRA # and zip (or I can pm you). Thanks.

I may be a new member to the forum, but I fully believe this is a critical year for CCL holders and gun owners, and the more Life members the NRA has the better they can represent our interests, not only this year, but in the years to come.

jekoenig, you have a PM.

Others: this is a monumental opportunity to grow Texas NRA membership.

To be able to sponsor new Life Members for only $300...well, I would be humbled to help.

PM me your real name and your real email address.

It would be a privilege to sponsor you as a new NRA Life Member.

Let's get this Lifer party started!

Same here...anyone needs a sponsor PM me.

Well, folks, it's now lookin' to me like the $300 life membership is available, but only if purchased by the current life member as a gift . There's no sponsorship involved.

Lemme call NRA HQ in the morning and find out the skinny on this. I'll post tomorrow after talking with membership support.

Previously, when this was offered, the official deal I received in the mail was for me to sign up family with the $300 gift membership. So it appears there was a very liberal interpretation of that offer.

[Skiprr]

Mike1911 is correct: we jumped the gun in interpreting this one.

While a life member isn't restricted to family members for a gift--friends do qualify--it is still a gift, not a sponsorship. HQ confirmed I could buy a gift life membership for any NRA non-member or annual member, but there is no provision for anyone to buy a reduced-price life membership on their own under my "sponsorship."

When you go to https://www.nra-2012.org/ and enter your personal membership data, you are presented with your relevant information. HQ says that the options available will differ by member; that I personally have the option to upgrade to patron member (which I'm thinking very strongly about doing), and/or I can buy a discounted life membership for someone else using my credit card. But there is no "sponsorship" as there was in an offer that ran several years ago.

[Mike1951]

Actually, what I was saying that in previous years when they did accept sponsorships, the official offer was the same as now; that the Life member must pay.

In the past, they bent their offer to gain new Life members.

Oddly enough, of the two forum members that I had provided my info to this year, one was denied and one was apparently accepted.

Well now you know which of your friends carries a rabbit's foot.

[Mike1951]

Even though my PM with the info was sent exactly five minutes after his post, he received multiple offers and I was not his sponsor.

But i sent PMs to both asking about the outcome and this one was apparently successful.
