Thank you Lake Country Friends of NRA Supporters for making us 2008 Magnum Recipients for last years great turn out!
Friends of NRA has announced its 2008 Magnum Merchandise Package, an assortment of high-level firearms, sporting goods, artwork and home décor items created exclusively for top-producing Friends of NRA committees.
Within each state, committees and field representatives work together to choose the events eligible for Magnum Event status. Roughly 15 percent of all committees can earn the title of Magnum Event; these events are the only ones allowed to offer the Magnum Merchandise Package. These carefully selected events represent the highest quality that Friends of NRA has to offer. The process of choosing a Magnum Event includes examining the committee’s past net income, attendance figures, and marketing savvy. Each year presents a new opportunity for committees to move their event into Magnum status. The goal of the Magnum merchandise package is to make big events even bigger! Earning Magnum Event status puts your committee in an exclusive group that will receive the listed benefits. These extra items will increase interest in your event, boost attendance levels and provide additional income.
Versatility is the objective with this custom-made .22LR conversion kit, containing an interchangeable slide to fit on any full-size 1911 frame. Each unit is polished on both sides in stainless steel, comes packaged in a hard plastic case with a ten-round magazine, and includes the NRA logo on its side. This unit replaces the OEM barrel assembly with no modifications to your pistol necessary to install.
This vintage Taylor’s 1874 Sharps Sporting rifle comes with all the standard features, including a hand oil-finished American forearm, receiver, breechblock, flange and trigger plate, all machined from one solid piece of steel. Also includes a lock plate and trigger guard contoured to the stock, tumbler with fly for soft release of the trigger, one piece of predrilled tan for sight placement, hardened and polished screws, and dovetailed front sight adjustable for windage. Each rifle comes with “National Rifle Association” embellished in gold-filled italics down the center of the octagonal barrel.
Fresh out of Marc Pierce’s signature collection comes the new and exciting sculpture, “Aerial Ballet.” This awe-inspiring piece captures the magnitude of the American spirit with its fluid movement and sweeping action of eagles flying freely, which comes together in this one beautiful and elegant sculpture. Measuring approximately 11 x 8.75 x 23 inches, the sculpture includes a brass tag with the title engraved on it.
The elk run fiercely up the highland in Pierce’s second addition to this year’s Magnum Package with his sculpture, “Headed High.” The scene depicts three bulls as they sprint uphill in the snow.
The leader of the pack signals their arrival with his call. The magnificent details in this sculpture truly depict the nature of the beast in this wildlife wonder, which features slight hints of color throughout. Each sculpture measures approximately 15 x 7.5 x 12 inches. The Friends of NRA logo is included in gold on the bottom.
