2. Perfect model for what?

As the article stipulates, get rid of the NRA and it would take no time at all for some other group to replace them.

You could close the NRA tomorrow, and they'd be another lobbying arm started up by armaments money within the hour. You could shoot Wayne LaPierre to the moon, and they'd be 100 other lobbyists lining up to take his place. Both LaPierre and the NRA serve not their members, but weapons manufacturers. (That's why all those polls about "rank and file" NRA members who support, say, background checks, are worthless. At its top, the organization no more answers to them than it does to the Brady Campaign.)
