The ISRA has a few basic means for member participation:
1. Training and shooting events – these are available at our ISRA Range facility near Kankakee as well as a growing number of events available state-wide. Check our ISRA Range Calendar as well as the ISRA Events Calendar.
2. Participate in statewide and local legislative activities. This can be answering the alert to make calls to your legislators, submitting witness slips when requested, or attending important events like IGOLD (Illinois Gun Owner Lobby Day).
3. Attend local ISRA meetings where available. There are local meetings in select locations around the state, contact the ISRA office if you are interested in having / sponsoring a meeting in your area!
