Tell Leah Madachik (“Out Of Control,” Letters, Jan. 2008) to stop crying, turn on the charm, sharpen those sales skills and raise her transfer fee. I charge $50 to transfer a firearm and will not give out an FFL on a new gun without the chance to quote. Most people will pay more to know they have a local dealer to turn to for service. Nick Lipschultz Liberty Guns Inc. West Palm Beach, Fla. It seems everyone in the industry is in love with the NRA now that it is an election year. I work at a gun store on the weekends and all the promotion items for “Insure Your Gun Rights” are everywhere. Have we all forgotten that the NRA only wants our help when they Turn On The Charm need members? Not all gun owners believe in what the NRA has done and what they push all the time. Please don’t publish the name of the gun store where I work. I don’t want the big shots from gun companies and the NRA attacking the owner. D.R. Matthews (Midwest) Mr. Matthews, while I haven’t agreed with every move the NRA has made in the 15 years I’ve been the editor of Shooting Industry, I fully support, as does FMG Publications, the “Insure Your Gun Rights” campaign. Often through the years, I’ve been told: “Thank God for the NRA, but . ,” followed by a statement of a “wrong” position/ statement/promotion/ campaign by the NRA. It seems we all love what the NRA does for NRA Non-Believer us as long as the organization and its leaders don’t make us “uncomfortable.” It’s remarkable that so many gun owners, and citizens in general, become “uncomfortable” about the NRA based on portrayals of the organization by an overwhelming anti-gun media. Doesn’t it seem odd that we don’t believe the liberal media on so many issues, but do so when it comes to the NRA? Mr. Matthews, your position is exactly what anti-gun forces want. Instead, do this: If you’re not an NRA member, join the organization. Then help as many of your customers do the same. The NRA is not the enemy. The bad guys are the ones who are not interested in insuring your gun rights, but taking them away.
