Founded on the premise of Education & Training, the National Rifle Association is the world's premier firearms organization. Our mission is to motivate the public on how to be educated, safe, and trained in the use of firearms while having fun pursuing the lifestyle. Whether you're a brand new gun owner, a target shooter, hunter, competitor, or gun collector, NRA has a program for you. So GO Learn about our Nation's firearms history with the NRA Museum, GO Train through a network of over 100,000 NRA Certified Firearms Instructors, GO Shoot at a local range or hunt with friends and family, or GO Compete at a NRA sanctioned tournament. Whatever you do, NRAGO.
