I thought they just existed to illegally funnel Russian funds to the GOP.

Sure the NRA are also a bunch of corrupt, self-centered boomers. Looks less like funneling money and more like peddling connections, which isn't any better.

My point above by calling them an industry lobbying group is that they present themselves as a rights group, but when it comes to firearms related causes they have a history of speaking up loudly when it will affect the domestic gun industry and saying very little when it is a firearms issue that won't negatively affect domestic gun companies finances.
