If you read any of Gerry Adams' books or even stuff written from a British/Loyalists point of view, it's pretty much agreed upon that the IRA consists of a very small, loose network of prominant Irish-Catholic families. Yes, there might be more than 300. Maybe less. But if you ask either side or anybody that knows anything about The Troubles the number of active IRA members, they will give you roughly the same figure.

You said "loads". Three hundred people is hardly "loads". Are their more members that you know of? If so, how many? How many do you consider "loads"?
