ChrisJM981 924 Posted October 28, 2010 Welcome to the forum. I see you have Shore Shot list as a home range. There are a few ranges much closer if you're interested. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

silentheaven 0 Posted October 28, 2010 I would definitely be interested. I loved the place but it sure is a hike for me lol. I see youre from bergen county. Where would you recommend? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Krdshrk 3,878 Posted October 28, 2010 The Bullet Hole is in Belleville - indoor pistol range. Outdoors you could go to Cherry Ridge. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Malsua 1,422 Posted October 28, 2010 Hi, Welcome. As he said above...Indoor BulletHole, outdoor Cherry Ridge. I work in Maywood and pass Cherry Ridge on my way home...it's not that far. 35-40 minutes once you get on 4w or 208n and that's during rush. You should get out and shoot with some of the guys so you have some idea of what guns you'd like to buy once you get your Purchaser ID and Pistol permits.

imperialfish 11 Posted October 28, 2010 Bullet Hole would be a heck of a lot closer for you. Be-side's they don't have a ray ray (The Glock King) over at SS. Brick Armory guys are cool but just to far for us northern guys. We are all going to FD on sat. It would be a great opportunity to meet the clan.

silentheaven 0 Posted October 28, 2010 I will probably check out the bullet hole since its next to where I work. Do you need a permit to be able to go and shoot? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Malsua 1,422 Posted October 28, 2010 I will probably check out the bullet hole since its next to where I work. Do you need a permit to be able to go and shoot? No, but most gun stores want to see your purchaser ID or Pistol permits before you can handle any guns. If you come to a gathering, you can handle quite a few guns. Please advise who you meet as to your experience level with guns. If you're brand new to it, you'll get the core basics. Without fail, if you hand a gun to a new person, their finger goes onto the trigger and they will have pointed it at you within 30 seconds. Maybe not your head or chest, but your arms and legs, etc. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
imperialfish 11 Posted October 28, 2010 BTW they do not rent... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
silentheaven 0 Posted October 28, 2010 It would be nice to go to a gathering. I do need to try a few more handguns before i decide which one i would like to purchase. so far i have fired the sig p226 and the glock 22, both in 9mm. I absolutely loved the p226 but really hated the glock. I am hoping to go to a range with my dad to try his beretta. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
imperialfish 11 Posted October 28, 2010 I also have a p226 and love it, If he has beretta 92fs that also a great shooter. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

At least 30 of us are planning to be there. If you want to sample a wide assortment of guns, there'll be no better opportunity than this. The relevant thread is here.
