USA – -(AmmoLand.com)- AmmoLand News received a personal note from one industry member who’s been a staunch supporter of the NRA. A note that he asked to be shared.
With that, here’s the note – verbatim- received from MidwayUSA’s Larry Potterfield:
From the Desk of Larry Potterfield…
Logically, there’s a gag order on NRA Board members and staff. Things usually work that way, when you’re engaged in litigation and/or serious negotiations.
Being a long-time champion of the NRA, I’d like to speak in support of its Leadership.
If Results were the only measure of NRA Leadership; that ship has sailed hundreds of times in the last 30 years, with victory after victory at the state and national levels – and two national elections. The NRA might be the most successful advocacy group of all time.
If the measure were one of market positioning and operational capability to defend the 2nd amendment, the NRA Leadership has done an unbelievable job; the foremost guardian of the right to keep and bear arms.
If the measure were just the NRA people, the directors and staff (past and present); I personally know a great many of them. They are a great group of individuals that make even a greater team.
So my opinion on NRA Leadership, it’s pretty simple, NRA Round-Up is running 24-7 on the MidwayUSA website and I encourage all Freedom loving Americans to continue your unwavering support as well!

Y’all seen this? How in the heck is the NRA still letting this sleaze, Bill Brewer, a libtard Democrat, bleed it dry??

I ain’t donating a cent til Brewer is fired and LaPierre is sent home. Brewer started working for NRA in 2018 and has been behind this entire shitstorm, now overbilling every last dime we got left.
Get help. Gee, that’s the best I can do and the best advice I can give you.

I don’t know, the way some of the members love to project that any who disagree with them are leftists, it seems they are projecting something. Trickle down perhaps?
I have not read all of this. No time. Mr. Potterfield is an American success story. He has contributed MANY millions to the NRA. If I recall the number, it is in excess of $50 million. Where would WE be without his contributions? I think it is fair to say that we would be in a hell of a lot worse place than we are now. Of course, we are all entitled to our own opinions and can choose who we want to do business with. I think we have to sit back and look at this from a big… Read more »
I see a lot of Strong opinion against NRA and Larry Potterfield. It almost seems as though there are, “Leftist” among us trying to sow contempt for both. Remember we are viewed as the enemy and if we pick at each other it makes it easier for us to be taken apart.
Larry’s blind loyalty allows him to miss the writing on the wall. Wayne must go and the sooner the better.
folks, Larry is right. i expected to lose my Second Amendment ‘right’ by 1984, and only the NRA- WHICH IS US!, kept that from happening. the socialists HATE the NRA because it has been so effective.
any issues with the NRA can be worked out; anything else just helps our enemies!
NRA You Have Been A GOOD RIDE for many Years, BUT You have Went LAME. So Until You STOP Negotiating Our Rights Away {NRA} Git Rid of Wayne LaPierre, Restructure The BoD Down to A Manageable Number, I’m going to grab a Fresh Ride out of the Corral and continue on. Git Your Sh*t Together.
Potterfield doesn’t care, he has made millions off the gun people. I don’t understand why he would want to put himself on the negative side of people who buy from him. He can’t whitewash this and close the blinds or minds of people who have seen their money misused. Maybe he is the same way.
