Principally, the NRA supports gun manufacturers.
No. They support the right of law abiding people to own guns.
THEY SUPPORT NO PARTY. THEY SUPPORT DEMOCRATS AND REPUBLICANS AND INDEPENDENTS AND LIBERTARIANS IF THOSE PERSONS ARE PRO-GUN. At one point a study was conducted and found that the majority of NRA members were in-fact democrats. This seems to no longer be true but I have yet to find any new studys confirming that.

No, the National Rifle Association (NRA) does not receive federal funding. It is a private nonprofit organization that relies on membership dues, donations, and fundraising activities to support its operations and initiatives. While the NRA may engage in lobbying and political activities that influence federal policy, it operates independently of direct government financial support.
That's sort of a vague question, but generally speaking, Democrats are as split as the rest of the country on what to do about guns. Obama has signed every piece of NRA supported legislation that has come to his desk. Many Democrats are NRA members and many support positions that the NRA would not agree with.
Yes He no longer lists his stance on this issue in his website. He was graded an F by NRA for support of gun control.
Yes, the NRA has endorsed Democrats over Republicans in the past. However, it is relatively uncommon for the NRA to endorse Democrats, as the organization generally aligns more with conservative views on gun control. Endorsements by the NRA are typically given to candidates who strongly support Second Amendment rights and advocate for less restrictive gun legislation.
No, the National Rifle Association (NRA) did not support the Mulford Act of 1967. The Mulford Act was a gun control legislation that aimed to restrict the carrying of loaded firearms in public places in California. The NRA opposed this act, arguing that it infringed upon the Second Amendment rights of law-abiding citizens.
The NRA primarily uses its considerable financial resources for campaign contributions to support pro-gun candidates in elections. However, it also engages in grassroots lobbying efforts through its members and activists, mobilizing them to contact elected officials and advocate for their positions on gun rights issues. Both strategies are utilized, but campaign contributions are a major focus for the NRA.
The NRA is a very strong lobby in Washington D.C.
NRA Gun Club happened in 2006.
