You can pretty much look across every collector organization and the demographic will be much like ours, especially when it comes to collecting firearms. This trend also extends to conservation organizations such as PF/QF, RGS/AWS, RMEF, NDA, TU, DU, etc. Even "gun clubs" are seeing this trend. Organizations are "aging out". Members who have been active for a long time just do not have the energy or desire to continue to do the heavy lifting and the younger demographic are not stepping up to fill the vacancies. Whether they have no interest or just do not want to volunteer their time, the answer is unclear. As the saying goes, "It is what it is".
