I’m currently a member of the NRA but I’m planning to drop them and turn my national focus to Gun Owners of America (GoA).

At the local level I’m torn. There are a ton of organizations but none really feel like they’re more than a one-man show. I’m hoping to find a political organization that I can donate to and also participate in with the coming of unSAFE 2.0.

That said, what organizations do you belong to (both nationally and locally) and are you happy with them?

2nd Amendment Foundation, and my favorite working on our actual rights...National Association of Gun Rights..
from thier webpage:
"With our rapidly expanding membership of 4.5 million grassroots activists, the National Association for Gun Rights has led the charge to halt the radical anti-gun agenda across the nation. Accepting NO COMPROMISE on the issue of gun control, NAGR works tirelessly to hold politicians accountable for their anti-gun views, and has made great strides in protecting and preserving the Second Amendment. But our effectiveness in the battle against the gun grabbers depends entirely on the support of gun rights supporters like you."

In NYS:

NYS Rifle and Pistol Association (NYSRPA)
Shooter's Committee on Political Education (SCOPE)
*Lifetime members of both but have grown disgruntled with both organizations. NYSRPA is more concerned with itself and increasing its salary (especially that of Tom King) and SCOPE has had its own share of shenanigans.

Nationally:

National Rifle Association (NRA)
Gun Owners of America (GOA)
Second Amendment Foundation (SAF)
*Lifetime members of all three but lately only GOA gets my donations. NRA is like NYSRPA and would rather maximize profits for the organization than to push hard for gun rights (at least in Blue States like NY)

For a time I was a member for the Citizens Committee for the Right to Keep and Bear Arms (CCRKB) but stopped paying dues. No real reason other than I don't have unlimited funds. Was also a member of National Association of Gun Rights (NAGR) but dropped them too. If I remember correctly they started a pissing match with Alan Gottlieb and SAF for some petty BS.

May be mistaken but I thought Gottlieb was also behind CCRKBA, no?
