You probably hit a bunch of different sights googling stuff and that's how google gets it's money. Then they can sell mailing information for big $. You are on the list now. Congrats giving them even MORE information. Your IP is stored and added to the other list of IPs you post from based on that same logging info. If you hit sights about gun stuff they will market gun stuff to you.
Ain't technology great? Facebook does it to, hell they all do it.
I have been a member of the NRA on and off for many years, at this point I can't even tell you if I am a member or not. I know that I joined again several years ago, not sure if I renewed my membership or not.
To address the letter, pretty normal mailing from the NRA.
To address how you got the letter, when it indicates you as a gun owner. I would guess someone sold your address information to the NRA for advertisement.
I have never been found of the NRA tactics when it comes to asking for money. At least with a creditor if you are behind on your bills, and pay them some money; they shut up and stop calling you. The NRA is just the opposite, when you send them some money, they keep contacting you for more.
Happens all the time, don't sweat it. If it came with a pre-paid return envelope, send it back empty - makes the NRA pay for two stamps.
I printed an image of an x-ray that depicted a man with gun showed up his rear end and mailed it back to them in their prepaid return envelope. Thanks for the free postage NRA.
Maybe they're hoping you'll wake up and realize how wrong you are to be an uninformed anti-gun democrat and see the light and join an American organization that has the best interest for the Country in mind. Or , you can just throw the letter away, and keep criticising something you know little about but feel that no one else should have and enjoy. After all, that's the liberal way of thinking.

Perfect, now you'll get google spam about stuff you can shove up your ***. Keep going, you are on a roll. Your IT dept is gonna just have a ball with you. Good luck explaining.
Have you visited a lot of sites about guns in general? Facebook pages? Some crap toolbar on your browser? Do you have a "club" card at your local grocery?...no really
It doesn't take much to piece all this data together and draw a profile of you.

Some of these organisations seem to make a ton of cash selling mailing lists. I donated to the USO a while back - they do good work, particularly for the kids overseas - and ended up on the mailing list for an insane number of conservative orgs. (I resisted the temptation to buy a brick with my name and an inspirational message for the Ronald Reagan Library. But speculating on possible messages made for good fun.) The priniting costs and postage spent on trying to get more money out of me drained the coffers of any number of weird rightie money-making schemes for way more than my original donation - if it wasn't for the paper waste, I'd be tempted to do it again just for that reason.
Probably cookies. Buy one swimsuit and now I have ads of torso shots, dudes in speedos in every link I click
Those overlooking my shoulder probably think I'm gay...o well
