Recent Hague's reviews?

Recommended Posts

Pretty big news. I was a pretty regular Hagues customer. They were the place to buy SIG, and I got a couple of other good deals there. Liked the guys there, but I didn't ever shoot there. On the other hand, the guys at Freedom are great guys too. Look forward to see what happens over there. I hope they keep a good relationship and deals with SIG.

Looks like the new owners are going to use the old Hague’s policy of forcing you to buy their ammo if you want to use the range. Kind of disappointing, in my opinion. 

Maybe they need to do that to make the business sustainable, but I’m not really interested in spending $20 for a box of 9 mm when I can get it for $10 online (just speculating on pricing here). 

The owners/employees are always friendly and seem like great guys. I’ve even purchased a few firearms from them, so I’m really pulling for them to be successful, but I just don’t see myself using or becoming a member of their range unless they change that policy. I think that’s part of the reason Hague’s didn’t survive.

You will be pleasantly surprised by the price of ammo at the new Freedom Range.

Nothing like the old Hague-moneygrab.

Hoping for an opening by late June. 

The state paperwork goes before the judge in the next 2 weeks.

Thanks for the info. Sorry, didn’t meant to jump to conclusions.

If the ammo is reasonable, that definitely changes my perspective on things.

Don't care.

"Our ammo only" is a non-starter for me; for any range. 

I won't go.

Period.

As of right now, YES, that will be the policy for NON-MEMBERS of the range.

So members can bring there own? The post they had on Facebook, before they took it down, stated that both members AND non-members had to buy there ammo.

I’m 90% with you. I’ll go once to ck it out. Then tell them why I will not return. We want more ranges, but not stupid policies.

The West Deptford (Crown Point Rd (Rt44) between I-295 Exits 21 and 22) shop is open on the old Mantua schedule (Tues-Sat)

The range renovations (pretty extensive given the shit condition Hagues left it in) should be complete in 2 more weeks, then the whole operation goes on a 7 day/week schedule.

Given that the NJSP NICS unit is closed on Sundays, obviously you cannot take possession of a firearm purchase until the following Monday.

Glenn and his crew are busy stocking and organizing the shop. Stop in and see them!

So, I was driving down 295 today and after reading about the new Freedom Arms going in where Hague’s used to be I thought I should stop in.  As I pulled in a gentleman was walking out obviously heading to his truck with somewhere to go.  He stopped and asked me if he could help- I introduced myself and told him why I had stopped in.  He introduced himself as Glen one of the owners and offers to show me around.  The store is set up much the same way it was with the previous owners - but the range is different.  Completely new, clean and bright.  New backstops, shooting stations and mechanicals- beautiful.  The shop is about 3/4 full of both new and preowned guns - handguns, shotguns and rifles.  Glen took at least 1/2 an hour and showed me the entire place with obvious pride. Remember he was leaving to go when I arrived but stopped what he was doing to show me around.  Customer service is our priority he said - fair treatment, fair prices and a little ball bustin’ Seems to be the name of the game.  I am very impressed and want this place to succeed- if you are in the area do yourself a favor - stop in - introduce yourself and check it out for yourself.  I think we have a winner in town.

Glenn is the owner and a great guy!  I will stop by tomorrow and look around!

      Savior Equipment American Classic Tactical Double Long Rifle. 36” Model. I bought this from Amazon along with the single rifle case to decide which I liked better. I don’t feel like going through the hassle of returning as it was bought through a third party seller so I figured I’d knock 43ish%  off the price ($70.36 incl tax) and pass it along to someone here that could use it. As new condition minus the tags. $40 cash and pick up in Freehold.

      Although it's not a NJ establishment I believe West Side Rifle and Pistol Range is the last indoor gun range that exists in NYC of all places. I happen to know the guys and they are a great bunch of guys. I found out that they are also hurting like all other self owned businesses and someone mentioned they have a gofundme page currently. The fact that they are a 2A establishment and also the only one left in the NYC I figured i  can let our forum members know about their page. They did not come to me about this but if I can help out a business/friend and spread the word I will do so and for a good bunch of guys. I understand that for some of us it's hard to donate but if you can that would be great. If you can also spread the word and post on your social media sites that would be great. I would do so but I don't have any accounts on FB, IG or other sites. If you do donate drop them a message that it was you heard about them via NJGF!

      I just wanted to take a moment and wish a very warm welcome, once again, to Shore Shot Pistol Range!  @shore_shot
      A very cool fairly recently remodeled range and a nice big store with plenty of firearms for you to try!  One of the oldest in NJ with plenty for both new and more experienced shooters.  I recall coming here after Rays closed up.
      Also, please visit the vendor page here

      On Black Friday Reloaderz is having an open house.  We plan on visiting and will give a report.

      After over a year since planning approval, Reloaderz NJ's range in Wayne seems to be on its way.  It is located at the old Fuddrucker's site on Rt. 23 South.  Construction has been slow but a new sign promising "coming soon" has been erected.   Their website had little information but they are accepting emails for notifications when they are open for business.  
      I live very close but I'm worried they will be as expensive as GFH in Woodland Park.  Here's hoping...
