I remember this offer being done awhile back, but according to Rob Longenecker at Tucker Gunleather, it's on again until March 31st :
http://www.tuckergunleatherblog.com/200 ... portunity/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
Basically -- NRA Life Membership for $300 (vs the regular $1000 price) with "sponsorship" of an existing Life Member.
I've been a NRA member for a few years now, but with this offer, I'm ready to upgrade to Life - anyone want to sponsor me?
PM me if you can.

I called the 1-877-NRA-2000 Option 3, number and verified that this offer is valid.
Anyone else who needs a sponsor send me a PM or post your request here.

What is meant by sponsoring?

A current NRA Life member sponsors you by recommending you to become a life member. The recommendation is in the form of the sponsor's NRA number. The normal fee for becoming a life member ia $1,000. During a limited time it is $300 with a sponsor.

Does this only count for those who are already members of the NRA?
I'm not a member, but I'd like to support the NRA by becoming a life member if the $300 deal is available to me.

This offer is good for new members as well as current members.

I called also and got a different answer. The first time I chose option 3, it went to Andrew, who denied there was any program other than the Legacy Life for family members. I asked to speak to someone else and got Diane who reaffirmed that there is no official sponsorship program other than the Legacy Life which ends on March 31st.
According to her, they don't question someone sponsoring a friend under the program, but when I told her that I was trying to confirm the policy before posting to another forum, she didn't want me to. She was aware of the big sign up last year, which she said was also not an official policy.
She said that there was a website with this posted with some sort of code number for the discount and that code is definitely not being honored.
So you may have to call more than once to get this honored, but it's worth it.
I will also provide my NRA info to anyone who sends me a PM.

I might have to look into the budget for this.

I just got off the phone with Diane and, thanks to Mike, I'm now an NRA life member!
Thanks again Mike. I appreciate it.

Ask for Diane.
I got someone else the first try and they wouldn't do it. I happened to get Diane the second try and she didn't even ask any questions, just put it through.
