The UK's Finest Independent Forum for Shooters and Gun Owners. Est 2010.

The club insurance from both shooting organisations no longer includes personal accident cover. The individual member cover for personal accident finishes at 75 for NRA and 80 for NSRA.

I have a club member aged 84 who is an NRA individual member...he has no computer. He was not aware that he had no personal accident cover. I would have thought that the NRA had some duty of care to inform all members aged 75 of the insurance situation. Ditto the NSRA.

I am in the same situation with my pops who is 80 in 2017.

I was made aware of this in the pamphlet that accompanies your NRA membership card telling you all about the insurance.

aaarggh

I have been chasing around on insurance for PSG and have this to add.

1. I was informed by Endsleigh who cover the NRA Insurance that they have increased the age limit to
80 yrs, BUT you must be an individual member of the NRA.(if you are a CLUB member only,not
covered for this)(so you pay to join your club (AND)you pay for NRA. Double
Wammy)

2. I was asking about Practical Shotgun cover as my club secretary said it was not covered by the NRA
Insurance but the man at Endsleigh checked with NRA and they said it was as "a subsection of Target
Shotgun, with more robust movement etc" (BUT) I would still need to join the NRA as an individual
member IF I wanted the "Personal Accident" part as well.

I have emailed NRA Membership Sec. today and asked her to confirm points 1 and 2 and to update
the age thing on their PDF. I will update when/if I get reply.

I woukd be interested I have just renewed our club membership and insurance. One of my members is in his 90s.

Insurance is another "national" organisation scam.

I am an individual member of four national organisations to cover my interests and all give me insurance as part of the membership. I only need one insurance cover so why do I have to pay three times over.

Surely it should not be beyond their wit to offer membership fees with and without insurance, then I could just choose one organisation for my cover and not be paying three times extra. Sure as hell if I as to make a claim then all four wouldn't pay out.

More division and mismanagement by the shooting organisations.

Oh for one body that represented gun owners and leave the robbing, divisive discipline bodies to their own vested interest.

Can any one body truly represent the diverse views of all shooters?

The one thing that we all have in common regardless of interest and is fundamental to shooting is the legal framework and conditions by which we can legally own and use firearms.

A body whose sole purpose was representing shooters legal rights and advocating gun ownership within the law would surely get the support of the majority of gun owners as opposed to the plethora of vested interests that exist at the moment who are twiddling their thumbs around the key issue.

If only............

If we ever get one body, we are dead in the water. One group for all the antis to attack and blame for everything that goes wrong. One target to be discredited and set up for legislation to be aimed at. Our strengths lie in our diversity. This does not mean that the various organisations should not cooperate and work together, but make it all simple and we play into the hands of our opposition.
