For a hint of what donations and ad income at Calguns.net does, look at any of the hundreds of threads about the gun shows we attend and support, the educational material we hand out, and a ton of other things going on that aren't as public. Please continue to support Calguns.net, although the OP has joined at the highest level, I hope many more will sign up.
    I cleared up mine, however, I don't think mine was the only one causing confusion.

      The honest truth is that all the court actions would not really work at all without some across the state method of communication...

      Legal battles are temporal (in the tens of years) timespan. If we want to win in the long term it will take us making firearms an accepted part of culture again and no court filing can do that. Meet-n-shoots, gunshows, talking to poeple at work, and the eleventy billion "what gun is best" threads are working in the right direction though.

      If I had the extra cash I would also spring for a CGN membership... I can't even buy a box of .22lr right now though, so maybe in a few months

        My understanding is your money goes to Kestryll not 2nd amendment fight as with Calguns Foundation.

        Are you sure? Last I read it went directly to Kes?

          From the link

          When we reached the landmark number of 50,000 members we decided to introduce a new program called CGN Contributors. If you choose to become a Contributor think of this as a tip-jar. The proceeds from the CGN Contributors program will be used to start our own advertising campaign, improve the CGN website including the search functions, and further the C3 related outreach and activities. We have even more events and range days planned and we think you are going to like what you see. Keeping true to our roots that CGN will always be free, all our members will continue to get access to the site.
          It isn't just the website...

            This thread has highlighted the many contributions that CGN has made. I have supported CGF, for some time now, but I am reminded how much CGN is worthy of my support as well.

            Helpful Cub, you've done a great thing. As of today I'm in for the annual membership (for now). See, you've inspired me. Your generosity is multiplying!

            The Second Amendment is the one right that is so fundamental that the inability to exercise it, should the need arise, would render all other rights null and void. Dead people have no rights.

                At this point in time you can't have CGF without CGN.

                CGN is the grassroots and main support for CGF, is it not?

                Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn't pass it to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same.

                  Helpful Cub, congratulations! I've never regretted my lifetime contribution to CGN. Although it's important to note from a legal standpoint that CGF and CGN are completely separate organizations, both CGN and CGF have different but entirely complementary roles to play in fighting for our 2nd Amendment rights; contributions to either (or both ) are definitely worthwhile and one can see the dividends almost immediately if one takes time to look.

                    I know that feeling. It was right after I donated my first chuck of money to SAF that they decided to go to war and openned many lawsuits the following week. I guess that's the hard part is trying to figure out who to help and when. I know they all do good work, some are just more useful to me at the moment than others. I haven't given to CGN so I figured they were due. I still have donating to CGF directly and CRPA on my to do list. There's only so much money to go around.

                      Excellent analysis, and spot on.
