If you buy a lot of shit off of Amazon you should link your account to a 2A friendly donation--costs you nothing, comes from Amazon. The commies do it for their causes.
Here's the notice I just got regarding my choice:

That's a surprise!
I've ignored that because I couldn't imagine them donating to anything but mobile abortion clinics, or "Gender changes are US." Looks like I have to make a few adjustments.
Thanks for the info.

Cato Institute (guys who won Heller for us) is also on the list.

Would be my second choice. My only reason for not putting them first is they deal in other issues other than 2A, but I almost always agree with those positions as well. Great people.

I've been donating to Project Childsafe since the Smile program started. They keep expanding available charities every day.

I've been supporting 2nd Amendment Foundation thru Amazon for a few years now. Pretty sure it was an FSN'er who posted about it way back before the crash. Anyway, ya' gotta love the irony.

Might have been me! Pretty sure I mentioned it before, but we get new people so it is worth raising now and then. I was prompted by the statement Amazon sent me.

Yeah, I believe it was you who mentioned it. Didn't you also keep a current list of gun shows dates & locations ... way back when lots of us were still actually going to them?

Yep.
