Let me know if it still is; I did, but didn't have the $$ for my son. He is 11, and it would be a HUGE benefit for him at that cost!

That's a +3 so far, Aloha.
Keep your eyes open. They usually have multiple campaigns for the $300 lifetime membership that run each year. People on calguns were successfully signing up even earlier this month. I'm willing to help sponsor anyone who wants to be a life member if aloha runs out of slots.
And yes, holy cow do you get a lot of mail, phone calls, etc. Ugh. I remember reading somewhere that there's a number you can call to get you taken off the spam list though.
Okay, the offer no longer appears on the website but I've submitted a question to the Membership division about when it will be offered again.
That would be cool.
I don't know about that - but I wrote a personnal letter to Wayne LaPierre. I'm sure he didn't read it, but it basically said I PROMISE I will re-up (this was years ago before I was a life member myself) if you stop wasting my donations on sending me renewal solicitions so early, and start spending it on defending our rights. I didn't get a whole lot of crap after that, beyond the magazine and ILA emails.
I don't get any calls or emails - but I signed up in my CCW class and don't believe I provided them with anything other than my PO box and a a CC number. I get a lot of shit in the mail but no phone calls or emails.
I've been a member for as long as I can recall and I have never gotten the dreaded phone calls, mail, or other solicitations I hear about. I've always opted out of the "magazine", not sure if that affects things but if they didn't send me my renewal notice once a year, I would not receive a single NRA piece of mail all year.

Call them. It's easy. They'll remove you from almost all notifications other than membership specific stuff you need to know.
If you become a Benefactor they stop harassing you about upgrading.
