The NRA Candidate Ratings are a great tool when it comes to voting. It is SUPER-EASY to use. Simply select your state, and you get a printable list of candidates in your area with the candidate's NRA Rating.
Below is the NRA Candidate Rating Key:
A+
A
legislator with not only an excellent voting record on all critical NRA issues,
but who has also made a vigorous effort to promote and defend the Second
Amendment.
A
Solidly
pro-gun candidate. A candidate who has supported NRA positions on key votes in
elective office or a candidate with a demonstrated record of support on Second
Amendment issues.
AQ
A pro-gun
candidate whose rating is based solely on the candidate's responses to the
NRA-PVF Candidate Questionnaire and who does not have a voting record on Second
Amendment issues.
B
A
generally pro-gun candidate. However, a "B" candidate may have opposed
some pro-gun reform or supported some restrictive legislation in the past.
C
Not
necessarily a passing grade. A candidate with a mixed record or positions on
gun related issues, who may oppose some pro-gun positions or support some
restrictive legislation.
D
An
anti-gun candidate who usually supports restrictive gun control legislation and
opposes pro-gun reforms. Regardless of public statements, can usually be
counted on to vote wrong on key issues.
F
True
enemy of gun owners' rights. A consistent anti-gun candidate who always opposes
gun owners' rights and/or actively leads anti-gun legislative efforts, or
sponsors anti-gun legislation.
?
Refused
to answer the NRA-PVF Candidate Questionnaire, often an indication of
indifference, if not outright hostility, to gun owners' and sportsmen's rights.

an NRA Endorsed Candidate
* Indicates
an incumbent running for re-election
The NRA-PVF is non-partisan in issuing its candidate grades and endorsements. They do not base their decisions on a candidate's party affiliation, but rather on his or her record on Second Amendment issues.
*The NRA is a single issue organization. The only issues on which they evaluate candidates seeking elected office are gun-related issues.
