2023 NRA Convention

[Trigger Time]

And none worth giving any

Exactly

She has 12 followers...so there might be 2 that show

I'm sure Shannon's harpies will join them. So make it a dozen.

Wish I could. I run the shop. I answer the phones. I rebuild the transmissions. If need be pull or install one. I order the parts. I take in all jobs. Deal with walk-ins. Hell, I clean the crapper too. Plate is extremely full and an extra day off just puts me another day behind.

Don't forget about INGO deals.

2 part question my nra packet still hasn’t arrived. anyway to easily find my member number to avoid a cluster at the event?

any of you guys with the extra badges have any that aren’t spoken for ? My family of 4 is attending and would love to put your extras to use. In NWI obviously shipping is not an option at this point lol

Minus these minor inconveniences I am very excited to go here for the first time. Just a couple days away now.

I can address part 1: IIRC name and ZIP will pull up all your membership info. At the Deer Turkey and Waterfowl Expo (DTWE) we had this capability in the NRA booth. We could look up by number (most don't have their card in their wallet I have observed) or other info. I only broke it once.

The folks at the Convention Center will have all the cool wiz-bangery.

DTWE: NRA booth has David Conte (AKA my NRA-ILA POC) with the cool wiz-bangery.

Indy 1500: All volunteers who are kicking it old-school.

Maybe your secret code number appears on the dozen pieces of mail you get from the NRA each week. But NRA staff should still be able to look it up easily.

GFGT got the 2 spare badges I had. I imagine they'll be able to look up your membership fairly easily.

Any recommendations on parking? Seems when I went the first time it was in Indy I parked close to the ball field but don't remember for sure.

When you register there they will give you badges for your whole family!

I park at the zoo an walk over. Weather will be great Friday and Saturday...not too long of a walk, way cheaper, easier to get out when done.

Best thing I ever did years ago is email them and told them to put me on the "Do not promote" list. Haven't gotten a single peice of mail from them other than my magazine in years!

I didn't even do that but still only get maybe one piece of mail per month from them.

That's good...it use to be out of control! Maybe they are cutting back on postage so we can buy Wayne some more suits.

Me too. Can't remember the last time I received NRA snail mail?

Maybe now we can work on the Wayne's suits myths? Another blown out of proportion excuse for not supporting our only congressional 2A lobby organization?

I'll be going. It will be my first time and I really have no idea what to expect. I'm only planning on going on Saturday.

The first time I went, I understood how my kids felt at the lego store.

YMMV

The only reason I get a membership now. $30 for 3 days of that feeling of a kid in a candy store.

Is it worth going for more than one day? Do they have different stuff on different days?

First time I went my wife said don't come home with a new gun or anything that requires regular maintenance and lubrication.

This year my wife is going with me to supervise!

All kidding aside for those taking their kids the booth babes are not all over the place and other than being pretty are nothing to be concerned about. Pretty sure there are no drag queen story hours scheduled this weekend either.
