The National Rifle Association was founded in 1859 twelve years before its better known American cousin. The Association has recently added the suffix "of the United Kingdom" to its website tagline. Its founding aim was to raise the funds for an annual national rifle meeting (now known as the Imperial Meeting) "for the promotion of marksmanship in the interests of the Defence of Realm and permanence of the Volunteer Forces, Navy military and Air". In 1890, Queen Victoria granted the NRA a Royal Charter of Incorporation. 2009 marked the 150th Anniversary of the National Rifle Association of the United Kingdom. These days the Association is primarily concerned with civilian full-bore target rifle shooting, although retaining its military heritage and close links with the Armed forces.
