Vox confuses the NRA with the NRA
Yes, in many cases acronyms stand for more than one actual entity. NBC can stand for the National Broadcasting Company, Nuclear, Biological, and Chemical in the military, the National Bank of Canada, and more.
NRA has just as many. Here’s a sample from The Free Dictionary.
| NRA | National Rifle Association |
| NRA | National Restaurant Association |
| NRA | National Recreation Area (US National Park Service) |
| NRA | National Roads Authority (Ireland) |
| NRA | National Register of Archives |
| NRA | National Recovery Administration |
| NRA | Normal Retirement Age |
| NRA | National Recovery Act |
| NRA | National Resistance Army (Uganda) |
| NRA | Non-Resident Alien |
| NRA | National Regulatory Authority |
