And I had a brief contact with the researcher behind it

It seems legit - above board.

His focus is much more narrow than the broad brush "Gun Good/Gun Bad" who ya got? survey nonsense.

I asked if he was concerned that including liberal gun rights advocates in the RKBA forum might skew his numbers since most 2A advocates are right wingers and he explained it this way:
" I am looking for responses from the more vocal among gun-rights and gun-control advocates, regardless of ideological preference. My research interest is in group membership decision-making.
That is, I am looking for differences between those who do and those who do not join/donate to membership groups like the Brady Campaign or the NRA."

It included a timed knowledge assessment that I found rather fun - I admit to being a puzzle/quiz/trivia kind of guy.

Peace
