NRA Members for Sharron Angle [Harry Reid's anti-gun record]

NRA Members for Sharron Angle

Does securing the funding for a $61 million dollar shooting range in Clark County qualify Harry Reid for an endorsement from the NRA?

No, it doesn't.

Harry smiled for the cameras while opening up the gun range, but his voting record on guns earns him an "F" rating from Gun Owners of America. According to the GOA, that means he's an "anti-Gun Voter: a philosophically committed anti-gunner."

Sign our petition and call the NRA today. Tell them to endorse Sharron Angle for US Senate.
