The National Body General Discussion section is exactly that, a section for all of us to discuss the National Bodies and what they are up to.

If you are in a position that can be compromised by what you are saying on here because someone takes offense and tells your colleagues or your sponsor and that in turn means you are being punished for your posts on here, think before you post!

September NRA Journal

#1 Post by Ovenpaa »

Arrived today and I just had a very quick skim through it and was quite impressed, it seems to have more content this time and has a few articles I look forward to reading.

Well done all involved.

Well, thank goodness for that, I shall look forward to seeing mine when we get home on Friday.

Mind you, it wouldn't have taken a lot to improve it!

Its got good coverage of the Imperial Meeting (TR MR and Schools/Cadets) and the cover has a photo of 'Warbie' being chaired off. It seems to be getting back to the Original format but with lots of colour pics and adverts.

It was good to start with and great leap forward from what went before, even with the omissions, but over a few issues it seems to have gone from strength to strength and is starting to have an identity, just need the NRA to keep pace with that.

Perhaps externalising the management/governance of the NRA is the way to go?

Is it online anywhere yet? Can't see it on the NRA website.
I write words for money - but not here. If you think my words here are written to the same standard as my words for money elsewhere, you're wrong. Have a nice day.

See also www.ukshootingnews.wordpress.com for my take on gun law and target shooting news.

It is better (although I noticed a few mistakes ;) ) although I think we probably have Tony de Launay to thank for writing an awful lot of it.

Still think its lacking in content and info though (took me about 20 mins to read) but I am obviously biased. :roll:

Nice to see I'm still organising the Euro Champs and Ages Match though :cool2:

love

Well if you joined the NRA you might very well have your own copy :lol:

I expect it'll be on the NRA website soon

Its working for me. Much brighter and with a broader scope.
