@NRA - 927K followers on X
Measured over 59 original posts from a 30-day window, last computed on August 28, 2026.
Engagement
A typical post picks up 240 interactions against 927K followers, an engagement rate of 0.026%. Measured over 59 original posts, its engagement rate beats 49% of 3,791 tracked accounts of a similar size, which puts it in the middle of its size range rather than at either end. Posts are seen about 15K times each, and 1.55% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 1.67% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 3.7 posts a day over the last 30 days, with activity on roughly 60% of days. Most posts go out around 00:00 UTC, and Thursday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 59 posts sampled, 92% carry an image or video, 46% are part of a thread and 24% link out. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 4.0K interactions, about 17x its own typical post.

Compared with accounts its own size
NRA's engagement rate beats 49% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (3,791 accounts, accounts of similar size (decile 9 of 10)). A percentile is spread evenly by construction, so 50 really is the middle of that group and 90 really is its top tenth.
On engagement per impression rather than per follower it beats 63% of the same group. When those two numbers disagree, the gap is about how far its posts travel rather than how people react to them.

Posting timing
This account posts most often around 00:00 UTC, and Thursday is its busiest day of the week. The bars below are the catalog-wide pattern, with this account's own busiest slot marked. They do not show how this account performs at each hour: we keep one aggregate per account, not one per hour, so that measurement does not exist in our data.

Trumpβs Justice Department just failed to defend nearly 100 years of safety protections on silencers, short-barreled rifles and shotguns. DOJ could have fought to keep these safeguards in place. Instead, it gave gun industry CEOs exactly what they wanted. https://t.co/LawfYQhwZH

The DOJ failed to protect common-sense regulations on silencers, short-barreled rifles, and other uniquely dangerous firearms and devices that have been in place since 1934! Our electeds are supposed to serve the American people, not the gun industry. https://t.co/45FIB4Ti9y

ICYMI: The NRA filed a lawsuit against the State of New York, challenging its ban on Glocks and Glock-style pistols. The filing notes that New York's law violates the Supreme Court precedent set in D.C. v. Heller, which prohibited handgun bans as unconstitutional. https://t.co/4J1PQHL5DF

Criminals do not follow imaginary lines. Law-abiding gun owners shouldn't have to be restrained by them either. H.R. 38 would ensure Americans have their constitutional rights upheld across state lines and the right to defend themselves anywhere. https://t.co/honHxIovCw

DSA Communist Abdul El-Sayed refuses to answer when asked directly by @JesseBWatters if he wants to get rid of the 2nd Amendment. One look at his smug indignation shows you the answer. Michiganders, your gun rights matter. Vote accordingly. https://t.co/i2DVXQcoda

Reading these numbers
A typical post picks up 240 interactions against 927K followers, an engagement rate of 0.026%. Measured over 59 original posts, its engagement rate beats 49% of 3,791 tracked accounts of a similar size, which puts it in the middle of its size range rather than at either end. Posts are seen about 15K times each, and 1.55% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 1.67% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 3.7 posts a day over the last 30 days, with activity on roughly 60% of days. Most posts go out around 00:00 UTC, and Thursday is the busiest day of the week.

- What is NRA's engagement rate on X?
- NRA (@NRA) has an engagement rate of 0.026%, based on the median interactions across 59 original posts from the last 30 days against 926,698 followers. Replies, reposts and quote-posts of other people are excluded from that sample.
- Is that a good engagement rate?
- At 0.026%, NRA sits above the 25th percentile of the 36,759 accounts in this comparison. Those comparison accounts are all large ones, because our scanning cadence is weighted towards big accounts, so this is a ranking among peers of similar scale rather than a ranking across X.
- Does @NRA have real engagement?
- Its engagement rate beats 49% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (3,791 accounts), which puts it in the middle of its size range group. Ranking inside a size band matters because engagement rate falls as accounts grow, so a raw rate would mostly re-measure the follower count. It is a starting point for a look at follower quality, not a verdict on it.
- When does @NRA post?
- Most posts go out around 00:00 UTC, and Thursday is its busiest day, at roughly 3.7 posts per day across the measured window.
