I find the headline itself a bit amusing, since it seems to question if the NRA has or would endorse gun control.

I can't think of any federal gun control measures that have passed without the NRA's endorsement.

Oh, I'm not talking about the PR war, but the "halls of Congress" war. Is there any federal gun control law that the NRA hasn't had an active hand in writing?

I understand they do so for strategic reason, to keep it from being worse than it otherwise might be. Sometimes, like TSRA managed to do with the "school parking lot 'ban' bill", our side can rush something through that the antis think serves their purpose, when it really serves ours. The bill in question might fill that role in the wake of the VPI shootings.

Passing "not as bad" laws is still a long way from repealing bad laws.
