I don't know the answers but there has to be some give and take here by the NRA. I would think it would be in their interest and their members to work together to help these issues. Right now all they are doing is scaring gun owners to drum up sales for gun manufacturers.
It does not seem like common sense enters some of the leadership of the NRA. I do not think you need a bazooka for instance unless you expect to fight tanks. The same kind of reasoning should apply to weapons that were designed for the battlefields of Iraq and Afghanistan.
