To the Editor:

Re “Gun Control That Actually Works,” by Alan Berlow (Op-Ed, May 31): The critical difference between the National Rifle Association of the 1930s and the National Rifle Association of today is that it has been transformed from being an advocate for responsible gun owners into being an advocate for the gun industry.

Why else would its officials oppose the reasonable regulation of potentially deadly weapons?
