NRA shooting clubs in NJ

Recommended Posts

I am looking for NRA shooting clubs. I am interested in the Winchester/NRA Marksmanship Qualification courses of fire and starting to enter some competitions. I searched the NRA web site for clubs near me and tried to contact them but have not heard back from any yet.

Does anyone belong to or know anything about these clubs?

Hawthorne Gun Club

Mountain Competition Pistol Club

Timberline Outdoorsman Club

Hillsdale Targeteers

Or any others?

Thanks

I know you are far away but South Jersey Shooting Club is going to have these qualification shoots for the NRA.

To be honest the NRA doesn't really have a lot to do with competition anymore. Bullseye is pretty much their last stand. You can shoot bullseye at almost every club, Old bridge, Central Jersey, etc. I do recommend that you also look at the many many other disciplines out there. I have nothing against good old NRA, its just that they spend a lot more effort on politics then they spend on shooting, and that's great, but their involvement with competition shooting is now minimal.

I thought Hillsdale Targeteers closed down after the Lead-O-Phobes closed the ranges around here due to toxic lead concerns and/or restricted their use to adults over the age of 18.

 

Did you check and see if the Ridgewood Rifle Club is still in existence? They are still listed as an NRA & USA shooting club, but private. I got my 4-position Rifle qualification in Smallbore (.22) there through their NRA Marksmanship Qualification program, but that was more than three decades ago.

I heard Hillsdale Targeteers will be using the range in Woodland Park (Gun for Hire). That’s great news.

    • I very seriously doubt this has anything to do with terrorism.    1) Harbor pilots are VERY seriously vetted, and highly trained. Not to mention extremely well paid. My experience knowing a few of them, and knowing how they are recruited and screened tells me that there is a slim to highly unlikely chance that a harbor pilot would have participated in anything like that.    2) Maintenance of foreign flag ships is well known to be dubious. Especially these days. These were NOT US flag, Jones act sailors. It was (to my understanding) a largely Indian crew on that ship, with a Ukrainian Captain. Indian crews are not exactly known for being stellar.    3) The bunkers (fuel) these ships use is ‘Bunker C’, which is a heavy, dirty fuel oil that can, and usually is, pretty contaminated. This stuff ain’t your car grade gasoline or diesel fuel. It’s nasty.   It requires nearly constant filter changes and maintenance to the engine/generators. The ship took on fuel prior to departing port, which would stir up all kinds of shit in the fuel tanks, which would contribute to particulates in the fuel lines/filters.    4) I’d say the posting of the chief engineer for Maserek above was pretty spot on as far as chain of events.    This was a shitty accident, with horrible timing and outcome. Not a terror attack. 
    • I saw Lara's interview on Bannon's War Room, and that gave me pause for thought. Her conjecture depends primarily on the veracity of her sources. Regardless, if it's not applicable in any way to this ship disaster, the methods described seem valid to me. And worthy of consideration for the future. As I said before, IMO something is coming.
