Join in the support for our 2nd Amendment with the Stand and Fight t-shirt

Back for another swing at the Membership Monday plate is NRAstore Sales Manager Dirk Grove. More then pleased with his last effort, Grove zigs a 100% cotton and 100% Made in America zag to wind up with the NRA Stand and Fight t-shirt.

Here's Dirk:

Since 1871, the NRA has fought to preserve all Americans’ Second Amendment freedoms. The battle continues today – and it has intensified.

With your help, the NRA is committed to “STAND AND FIGHT.”

Second Amendment Shield starts the march in February for Valentines Day

Fairfax, Virginia - The big clock on the wall (which most refer to as a calendar) tells us the days have turned to February ... although you'd never know it from the temperatures outside. First thing you think of when it comes to February is a short month. Always something to look forward to. The second thing you think of is Valentines Day.

Gadsden inspired folding knife finds spot at NRAstore.com

After tossing a few ideas back and forth for Membership Monday, the staff over at the NRAstore decided to go with a revolutionary theme ... one that reaches back to the colonial days. Thanks to Dirk for putting together the following:

Fairfax, Virginia - During the American Revolution, oppressed patriots voiced their defiance of tyranny by exclaiming, “Don’t Tread on Me!” Perhaps it’s time once again for freedom-loving citizens to rally ’round this legendary slogan.

Waterproof to 200 meters, visible in all light, the original Navy SEAL Watch

Fairfax, Virginia - After returning from Las Vegas for the 2013 SHOT Show, the hardest thing to do was readjust to the time zone. That's a three hour shift for those you keeping score at home. While the clock on my phone changed automatically, it was almost two days later until I remembered to do the same to my watch. Hence the inspiration for today's Membership Monday: a watch designed for the Navy SEALs.

State of the art NRA safe lets you access your firearm with one finger swipe

Fairfax, Virginia - As a responsible firearm owner, your safety plan should include keeping your gun secure until you’re ready to use it. But total security often means compromising quick and easy access. When danger looms, fumbling with keys or combinations could cause a delay – and disaster. Fortunately, the NRAstore’s newest handgun safe provides the best of both worlds.

The NRA Inprint™ Micro Biometric Gun Safe requires only one finger swipe for instantaneous access to your firearm. Featuring state-of-the-art biometric technology, the Inprint scans individual fingerprints to authorize its unlocking sequence – no keys are required!

Up to 15 separate fingerprints may be enrolled into its memory with a simple setup process. That means every member of your family will ALWAYS have their “keys” handy…but access is restricted to ONLY those you choose. A quick finger swipe will immediately admit authorized persons, and reject all others.

556 pages of all the self-defense laws in all the states

Fairfax, Virginia - As you head into the new year, best be up on where you stand when you have to stand up. That's why we're bringing you (straight from the shelves of NRAstore.com) the Self-Defense Laws of the 50 States - Second Edition.

Put together by Attorney Mitch Vilos and his son Evan Vilos, the book not only covers the legalese of all the laws, but also what the authors refer to as "Plain Talk" summaries. Basically, they cut out all the usual jargon and jumbo with an everyday conversational english translation of the legislation and codes.

Here's a pitch from the publishers:

The right to defend your life and the lives of your loved ones was recognized as “inalienable” by our forefathers. Modern law, however, also recognizes the rights of those who seek to harm you, your family or your property, and failure to abide by the letter of the law while defending what’s yours could lead to personal and financial ruin.

The Ankle Holster Alternative for Conceal Carry holders

Fairfax, Virginia - The first Monday in December — not as bad as you might think. Sun is shining, temperatures above 40^o and holiday shopping is underway (for some). The only thing to that can make it better is another stellar selection for Membership Monday.

How does an NRA Covert Comfort Ankle Holster sound?

Sounds pretty good to me — why else would I pick it?

Now you might be wondering why "comfort" is in the title. As they say on the NRAstore.com product page, comfort is the last word that comes to mind when thinking ankle holsters. Ah, but not here. Don't believe me? Maybe you'd believe American Rifleman? Here's a snippet from their review:
