I am going to join the NRA. I know you have a selection of like 3 magazines to choose from. Anyone out there make a reccomendation on the ones they like? I was leaning towards rifleman or freedom. Wanna get some opinions though.

I get the American Rifleman, simply because they don't have a handgun dedicated magazine and the Rifleman does cover handguns a bit. I don't hunt, so the hunting one was out for me.

I get the American Freedom I think it is... like it a lot, has more of the political stuff than the Rifleman does.

The "Armed Citizen" column is good.

Spend the tiny bit of extra money and get them all for the first year. Then you can make an intelligent decision for yourself! That's what I did.

I kept them all since I found good things in each, and I don't hunt either.

+1 for the Freedom mag . The " Armed Citizen " is a great section , similar to " It happened to me " section in the more LEO oriented mags . Their great examples of real life situations you can copy and use to help educate the sheeple . As someone else said , the Freedom one is also more politics oriented which is good also .

Are you getting the Life Member on installment ? Thats the one me and the wife did years ago . Its a really easy way to get the life membership without having to shoot your load all at once to buy it .

Have to admit I was surprised to see the Life Member Installment price went up from 750.00 ( when we did it ) to almost 1200.00 now
