By contributing financially to COLFO I put my money into a group that advocates for all shooters.

Honestly, as I've written previously, I support hunters but not with my hard earned money.
I don't expect hunters to fund target shooters like me and can't understand with others think I should fund hunters.
It isn't about working together, it's about being fair and reasonable.

I'll work with and for hunters, target shooters, sports shooters, for fair rules and legislation that benefit all.

@Cyclops - mate, I never even mentioned hunters in my post! You, however, seem to have the 'us' vs 'them' thing down to a fine art! What I think would work is a single organisation - COLFO seems to fit the bill at present - that every firearm owner will support financially, and gun shops come on board as well with a donation from every dollar spent on guns and ammo, to create a monster that cannot be ignored by government. Reading your post, I actually think you and I are on the same page.
