Basically, I want the organization to have a name that means “Gun Owners who aren’t assholes” but who’s letters form a catchy acronym. The goal is to be a counterbalance to the militia and open carry movement.
This is what I thought of so far…
Gun Owners who aren’t assholes
GOWAA: sounds too much like “Go Way”
Gun owners who are not assholes
GOWANAH: sounds too much like guano, bat or bird shit used as fertilizer.
Armed Americans Who Aren’t Assholes
AAWAA: nope
Gun owners against armed assholes
GOAAA: nah

4Such a group would not be my cup of tea, but since you singled out "militia" and the "open carry movement," GOAMOC - Gun Owners Against Militias and Open Carry.seniorelmeowmeow wrote:Basically, I want the organization to have a name that means “Gun Owners who aren’t assholes” but who’s letters form a catchy acronym.

23Gun Owners Who Aren't Assholes IS the acronym! It stands for:
"Gunners United N' Organized Without Negativity, Extremism, Racism, Sexism, Wailing Hyperbole, Or Assholes Resembling, Essentially, Nugent; The Association for the Social, Sympathetic, Helpful & Otherwise Liberal Except Shooting (stuff is fun)"
