Psalm23 0 Posted November 30, 2013 Welcome from a member at Cumberland Riflemen! What did you get and where are you going to shoot it? Thank you all for the warm welcome. I recently got the sti tactical 5 .40 and waiting patiently for the Cumberland riflemen membership approval. I hope they are accepting members though.

njJoniGuy 2,131 Posted November 30, 2013 Cumberland is recently back at full membership capacity, so the waiting list (of the past) is back in effect. I hope you'll be included in the Spring intake class. You can always consider SJSC in Winslow (not too far from Vineland) New member orientations happen twice a month and there's no 'new member' fee as at many other clubs. And for informal handgun shooting at short (under 25yd) ranges, SJSC is better suited than Cumberland. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Membership is a little bit on the high side for me but the range looks awesome from the pics on their website. I have to get the family pack since the wife wants to get some practice as well.

Psalm23 0 Posted November 30, 2013 Welcome! Nice looking 1911. Thanks. I'm still waiting for the 30 day interval to mature till I get the one on my avatar pic. This 30 day wait is killing me. I'm glad I'm down to 10 days wait today. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

rlsbee 1 Posted December 1, 2013 Welcome ! I live in Millville. My wife and I normally shoot at Bob's Little Sport Shop in Glassboro. They had a fire in June and are now rebuilding. I think they're looking at Jan or Feb to have the range open. We recently took a trip to the new Shooters range in Little Egg Harbor City. Not a bad ride and very nice range as well as a very nice store. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nice, call before 10am because Skip leaves around then. I'm in Newfield and I just hop on 40, I guess if your in east Vineland it could take a little longer but hop on 55 to the Elmer exit.

Had the chance to talk to Skip and will be checking out the place in a day or two. Cant wait to find a home range and get some practice. Thanks for the heads up, gotta be there before 10.

Buns of Guns 7 Posted January 16, 2014 I take it you'll be a regular at Butch's Gun World! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
louu 399 Posted January 16, 2014 They are kinda stuck up and stare down their nose at you in there with their guns on their hips. Go to The Gun Rack instead, very friendly in there and they dont wear guns. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Buns of Guns 7 Posted January 17, 2014 They are kinda stuck up and stare down their nose at you in there with their guns on their hips. Go to The Gun Rack instead, very friendly in there and they dont wear guns. You're not the first person I've heard that from...from a personal standpoint, they've been nothing but friendly to me. And as for the handgun toting, it is their right to do so...it's their place of business. NJ anti-gun fever getting to you? jkjk Most shooting ranges and gun stores that I know of staff members OC guns regulary. At King's Shooters Supply in KOP, even customers come in strapped without any problems. (Of course, they have more evolved gun laws than we do in NJ) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Psalm23 0 Posted February 6, 2014 They are both great shops. Just a matter of who has it available. I buy ammo from them for weekly practice. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

At King's Shooters Supply in KOP, even customers come in strapped without any problems. (Of course, they have more evolved gun laws than we do in NJ) I agree with this.....I stopped into a small shop that looked like an old bank or post office in Vineland once..I think it was butches?....having never seen me before and not being a "regular" didn't matter they were very friendly and not condescending/looked down on me...perhaps it's just a vibe they get and react accordingly...lol.... I actually got into a lengthy convo with the guys behind the counter and a customer on military service....And sharing stories/experiences (that could be shared)..... I actually ended up purchasing a pistol that evening at substantial discount..... If ever in the area I'll surely stop in again.. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
