^ Hear, hear. The NRA used to be about safety and marksmanship. I also shoot recreationally. I shoot Distinguished Expert with light rifle (.22). So does one of my sons. For the record, that's 192/200 on an official A-32 target. I actually shoot 196+ on those targets. That corresponds to 100% into an eye socket of a stationary individual at 50 yards. Hope I never need to use that skill on people. If it didn't feel like incest, we'd sign off each other's awards. Yippee, I'd get to wear a patch!
I was an NRA Certified Firearms Instructor for rifle and shotgun back when my sons were in the BSA, but I was traveling for work a bunch and missed the renewal date. Did those Merit Badges for Boy Scouts, too.

If you get to thinking you’re a person of some influence, try ordering somebody else’s dog around.
