What RMGO does?

RMGO/Dudley,

Dont you realize that these people could be your constituents and supporters? If you want to rub the "establishment" the wrong way on Capital Hill, then please go ahead. Alienating your potential supporters is just bad politics. Who are you doing this work for; if not the people on this website and similar like minded individuals? The people of CO-AR15 are the most conscientious gun enthusiasts and outdoorsmen/sportsmen I have met in Colorado.

If you pride yourself a politician, then I believe a little tack would be in order.

As for the rest of you, please state your opinion and your gripes and let it go, that horse is not gonna get up...

Delfuego out...

RMGO was. We've been working this issue from day 1, as our members expect (and should).

All of the FS employees there classified themselves as "pro-gun". Didn't make any difference, though.

your a broken record and obviously slow or something .
deal offered , we clean shooting areas , get good press , and offer you money ( what ever comes from the recycle but its real money ) .my dumb little pea brained 8 week clean up idea could have put a few bucks in your account and gotten rmgo plenty of free positive press . but noooo you want to walk around on your high horse and talk down to everyone . thats cool all the money we raise will go back to us (coar15 members) in the form of ammo or the npo of choice and a good time . any press we get will go to CoAr15 and it members with no mention of rmgo .
have you stopped to think how much your foul attitude is costing you in money and public image?
as where 2 weeks ago i was thinking maybe i should join and donate to rmgo , now i will never send your organization one dime also i would strongly suggest to anyone that would want to donate, that there money would be better of with the NRA , BSA or the USO .
honestly i have never had such displeasure with a non profit organization
[Bang][Bang][Bang][Bang][Bang][Bang][Bang][Bang][Bang][Bang][Bang][Bang][Bang][Bang][Bang]

mazin said it best "Dont think that RMGO is " too big to fail", because it can be replaced"

ok im done here , rant over

Dudley look at the red text above if you can see it!!!!!!!!!!

Not to say "range cleanup" is not important to folks: it is, and should be. So should a LOT of things.

Lots here have the "that sounds easy" attitude. Then, go ahead and create your own group (suggest, if you're not getting involved in politics and lobbying, to go the 501-c-3 route).

Unfortunately, the groups who claim to be "shooting oriented" tend to get involved in politics, and then become RMGO's enemies (because they protect bad politicians and start advocating for "reasonable" gun control).

Forming, funding and growing a non-profit, though, is not for the big talkers. It takes a lot of hard work, over many years.

Wow, an unprovoked cheapshot on the NRA. That's low. I've read all of the posts on the thread. You've proven that you don't care about the little guy. Go sit on your high horse and kiss the politicians asses. Seems that's how you like to get your business taken care of.

With you there, and I'm out as well. I'm glad that this thread has really justified why I never joined RMGO in the past...some really classless posts considering WE are the gun folks here. Even if you disagree with what we think, believe, etc, you don't have to answer it like an ass who thinks he is better than others. There is a right way to say no, and clearly, RMGO/Dudley doesn't understand that...
