Data from a national random sample of gun owners (N = 605) were used to determine whether members of the National Rifle Association (NRA) are a representative sample of all gun owners and how well the NRA's lobbying positions on gun control reflect the views of its membership and of nonmember gun owners. No obvious demographic distinctions were identified between member and nonmember gun owners, but handgun owners (odds ratio [OR], 1.69; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.19 to 2.39) and individuals who owned six or more guns as opposed to just one gun (OR, 1.95; 95% CI, 1.22 to 3.10) were more likely to belong to the NRA. Nonmembers were more supportive of specific proposals to regulate gun ownership (OR, 1.82; 95% CI, 1.14 to 2.91), but a majority of both member and nonmember gun owners favored a waiting period for the purchase of a handgun (77% and 89%, respectively) and mandatory registration of handguns (59% and 75%).
来自全国枪支拥有者随机样本（N = 605）的数据，用于确定全国步枪协会（NRA）成员是否是所有枪支拥有者的代表性样本，以及NRA在枪支管制方面的游说立场在多大程度上反映了其成员和非成员枪支拥有者的观点。在成员和非成员枪支拥有者之间未发现明显的人口统计学差异，但手枪拥有者（优势比[OR]，1.69；95%置信区间[CI]，1.19至2.39）以及拥有六支或更多枪支而非仅一支枪支的个人（OR，1.95；95%CI，1.22至3.10）更有可能属于NRA。非成员更支持规范枪支拥有的具体提议（OR，1.82；95%CI，1.14至2.91），但成员和非成员枪支拥有者中的大多数都赞成购买手枪的等待期（分别为77%和89%）以及手枪强制登记（分别为59%和75%）。
