Can you donate to the NRA?

Just so, does the NRA donate to charity?
The N.R.A. Foundation describes itself as “America's leading charitable organization in support of the shooting sports.” Each year, the foundation—which is a nonpolitical arm of the National Rifle Association, and can accept tax-deductible contributions—takes in tens of millions of dollars, mostly from small donors.
Subsequently, question is, is a donation to the NRA tax deductible? "Contributions, gifts or membership dues made or paid to the National Rifle Association of America are not refundable or transferable and are not deductible as charitable contributions for Federal income tax purposes."
