The problem is that if the NRA were to give up those first lines of defense, there are those in the government that will endlessly keep trying to chip away at all firearms, including hunting, target practice, and self defense. Gun owners don’t want their hunting firearms to be the next first line of defense in the crosshairs of the government.
The "slippery slope" theory is alive and well., I'll bet that the NRA PR executive that came up with that slogan got a $100,000 bonus!
