SCFGPA

Recommended Posts

Good Morning,

 

I am in the process of trying to become a member. I sent my letter to the membership comittee about two weeks ago. I had also emailed the membership committee and asked if I could take my NRA First Steps Class at SCFGPA.

I have not received an Email back.

 

Should I take the class elsewhere or should I wait to hear back from SCFGPA?

It is very unlikely you will ever get a reply to an email. Why dont you take hunters ed? It counts as training and best of all, it is free.

Hunter's Ed. courses at SCFGPA are all for Bow. The Clinton WMA courses are all on Sunday mornings. There is one coming up on a Tuesday morning, though. https://www4.wildlifelicense.com/nj/ALS/course/course_report.php

You can take the rifle and shotgun course at the Norther Regional Office in Clinton, NJ, which is only 20min or so away from SCFGPA. Both GlennP and I are instructors.

I'll have to watch the schedule for one of those that is on a Saturday morning. I've already downloaded and started to read the course materials.

I never had an email response to my own emails but they did finally call me, and when they did it was to schedule my safety class. My winning combination was to put all their application materials in writing and just mail it to them. That way maybe there's a physical item to hold your place in line.

I attended the new member meeting last Thursday evening, so now I'm on my 90 day probationary period. I wonder how many people would have to request it for SCFGPA to install hanging target holders on zip cords. Correct me if I'm wrong but that would allow people to work on close range (7-10 yard) shot placement while other people shot the full distance.

It should be as simple as showing up to a meeting and voting on it

You could always bring your own free-standing target stand. I made one out of PVC tubing and 1" wooden stakes that I place at whatever distance I want to shoot.

    • If you’re going to VA, buy 2 radios.  Program one for here and one for there.  If you guys are buying Baofeng radios do yourself a favor and get a tactical antenna for it,it’ll extend your reach.
    • Both our memories are a bit lacking. 3 bystanders were hit by NYPD bullets and 6 were hit by fragments at the Empire State Building shooting. The bullets later were determined to have passed through the bad guy as I said. He was not a big guy. The police fired 16 rds and 7 hit the bad guy.  Spray and pray?  I think not.  These officers fired until the threat was stopped and everyone is moving. Have you ever tried to hit a moving target whilst you're moving.  If you watch the video from where the police encounter him, the BG draws his gun from his bag, NYPD guys shoot, and the BG hit the ground is about 2 or 3 seconds.  The closest officer is maybe 12 feet or less.  The closest cover are those concrete flower pots.  If the officers chose to take cover before drawing the BG would have had a chance to shoot at least one officer. Know your target and beyond?  Agree 100%.  However, this by the Empire State Building at 9 am during the week.  There are bystanders and traffic in every direction.  The officers had a choice of doing what they did or letting the BG shoot them with his 1911 and shoot someone else. I think they made the right choice and the same one I would have made.  The officers exercised the best option in protecting themselves and the public. The first video is the police shooting.  The second is more detailed and gives you a lot of background information on the shooter. One thing this shows is if NYPD had to use fmj undoubtedly more bystanders would have been wounded perhaps killed.  NJ's hollowpoint law. only creates more danger to the public.
