Surrounding the major gatherings at each Annual Members' Meeting are a myriad of smaller events, each serving the members, many of whom travel long distances, in a different manner.

NRA Leaders are not only highly accessible to the members both through scheduled events such as book-signings and seminars, but also as they simply enjoy the meeting themselves.

The NRA Store is always well-attended as NRA places virtually its entire line of products within easy reach of the attendees. Featuring many items at reduced cost, visitors are inspired to appreciate the heritage of the association by returning home with NRA clothing of all descriptions, articles of all sorts, home furnishings, instructional materials and more.

The World-Class vendor exhibits are always a major draw, as the leaders of the industry present their latest designs right beside smaller product developers and dealers. All firearms have their firing mechanisms disabled, so every product can be handled with confidence, even by NRA novices. Many products are offered at special show savings - those not available at the show can of course be placed on order.
