Iowa Gun Owners isn’t your typical gun rights organization. While most gun groups focus on political connections and behind-the-scenes deal-making, we believe in something different — building raw grassroots pressure to force action in Des Moines.
We don’t wine and dine politicians — we confront them. Through targeted direct mail, aggressive digital ads, hard-hitting emails, and instant text alerts, we mobilize gun owners across the state to demand real action on the Second Amendment. (Check out our Our Tactics tab to see how we do it.)
While most lobby groups tiptoe around the Capitol and only target Democrats, Iowa Gun Owners members have already solved that problem — Democrats don’t run the show here anymore. The real challenge? Weak-kneed Republicans who campaign as conservatives but betray us once elected. And that’s where we come in.
We’re not in this fight to protect politicians. We fight for you — law-abiding gun owners. Sure, there are legislators who despise us. And we’re not invited to the cocktail parties — and we’re fine with that.
Because our results speak for themselves. From Constitutional Carry to Stand-Your-Ground to the Freedom Amendment to fighting gun control and exposing gun-grabbers at election time, our member’s track record is unmatched. (See our Timeline for the full list.)

If you’re ready to fight back — unapologetically — and want to join a true No-Compromise gun rights organization, we’d be honored to have you on board.
