I don’t know if this is an option and I am just missing finding a reference to it?

Nonetheless, if not an option, has it been considered?  In my case, I would prefer it for two reasons:

1.  Not having to renew periodically;

2.  As I near retirement and a fixed income, it’s an expense that would not need to be incurred in retirement.

I have lifetime membership with the Colt Collector’s Association, the Smith & Wesson Collector’s Association, and the Parker Gun Collector’s Association.  The latter simply because I enjoy reading their publication and at $40 a year or $500 for lifetime membership, my break even point is 12 1/2 years.  I own a grand total of two Parker shotguns, both of which were gifts.

They had Lifetime memberships years ago when I got the life time membership but then quite doing it I think in the mid 90’s.

Any chance of restoring it for younger members—many of us who aren’t so young anymore?

Don’t mean to let any cats out of the bag, but you should be aware that the annual dues for WACA are about to go up!  Now would be the time to apply for a Life Membership if you were already considering it…………
