In 2013 NRA considered Bernie Sanders an anti-gun Senator.

They gave him a D- rating which they apparently give to those they consider to have a mixed record. They consider the D to mean that no matter what the politician says publicly they can be counted on to vote the wrong way on issues important to the NRA.

Hover your mouse over the grades to see how they graded.

Someone needs to tell the NRA that on some Democratic forums he is considered just the opposite. It's amazing how that issue has been seized on just as Congress and our president are in the process of selling out the working class in America. Amazing how some are actually calling him a gun nut.

This summary of their ratings was in the Washington Post on April 2013
