I just tried to find out any information about this group. I couldn't find any. Do they have a legitimate website?
They do (http://amriflepistol.com/). The website appears relatively recent and thrown together; but they have been running a Facebook page since March 25 (http://www.facebook.com/TheAmericanRifleAssociation).

Interesting note, I accidentally made my first visit to the page logged in to my Facebook account and received a ton of pro-RKBA videos and arguments from their main page. I would have never guessed the Chairman of that group was a big gun control supporter if I had not read the individual comments. Not one word about supporting background checks - in fact, they had videos arguing against them.

I then logged out, cleared my cookies and revisited the page to make sure there wasn't a unique identifier in the link that was generated and surprisingly, whole new selection of articles to read that were decidedly more ambiguous. Plus a lot of complaining and attacks on the "Firearms Policy Coalition" group.

Maybe some of the techies can explain why the difference in the two pages and whether that is random or the use of some marketing tool to try and direct a particular message based on other websites visited, etc.?
