The Socialist Rifle Association (SRA) is a far-left firearm and mutual aid organization in the United States. It opposes racism, sexism, ableism, homophobia, and transphobia.[1] In 2021, the Southern New England chapter of the SRA began a project to create a left-wing shooting range called the ComRADE Center to counter the right-wing gun culture in the U.S.[2]

They oppose disarming reactionaries and have condemned those who support disarming conservatives.[3]
