The National Recovery Administration (NRA) was the primary New Deal agency established by U.S. president Franklin D. Roosevelt (FDR) in 1933.
The "Silver Bullet Brigade" was the creation of the National Rifle Association. NRA members who supported the organization's efforts to defend the 2nd Amendment were awarded with the distinction of membership in the "Silver Bullet Brigade." Depending on the level of support, members were given real silver bullets, or black baseball caps embroidered with the Silver Bullet Brigade logo AND the embroidered signature of movie actor Charlton Heston, the President of the NRA from 1998 to 2003.
