Hi, I'm just joining from Morris County, Montville specifically, as i have just discovered this site. I'm excited to see a range potentially opening in my area, and, from the description, very near. I lost touch with shooting for a while and rediscovered it recently and I am very happy I did.

 

Thanks,

Rob

Are you speaking of the range somewhere by the intersection of 280, 80, 287 mentioned in the ranges thread? I don't know it's the best kept secret possibly ever. Since I read this the other night I've thought of possible locations and can only think somewhere on one of the No/So running streets off 46 between Parsippany Blvd and Walsh Rd or North Jefferson Rd in Whippany. Based on the description it should be pretty convenient to me (selfishly) but I am sure I'll get to meet plenty of folks from here when it opens.

 

It should work out well for you as well. Where have you been shooting thus far? I tried to join Cherry Ridge yesterday and didn't make it on time (used my GPS like a jackass not seeing the disclaimer).

haven't been shooting yet, just getting started :D

 

OK, that's great....but wait until you've tried you will most certainly be hooked.

 

Do you know where you plan on gong?

Welcome to the forum Rob.

 

One note on the new range, if you do know the location please keep it secret until the folks are opening it announce it publicly on the forum, they wanted to keep it hush,hush until they had the CO in hand.

No worries I saw the new owners imploring those that know to keep it quiet. I'm so excited I wouldn't do anything to jeopardize there opportunity. I think it will do so well I wanted to see if they wanted an equity partner. :)

 

My other comments were 150% speculation, like all the others, based on the description they gave and I in no way have any knowledge of their plans, etc. The first I've heard of it was here on the forum so hopefully it's a well kept secret.

That's good....I paid my CR membership but haven't had my safety briefing yet so I can't go. Once that's done it'll be good because I have a couple high powered rifles that aren't so great indoors.

    • Looking to pick up a Kriss vector  in 9mm.  Let me know what you got.   Thanks Chris  
    • 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.
