FYI Cherry Ridge Pistol Range Closed This Week
My griping has been on the handling of the project-total arrogence and dis-respect towards the general membership. Great idea, poor execution. Just hurry up and finish the friggen thing so the range is ours again.

FYI Cherry Ridge Pistol Range Closed This Week
We'll see about that.Hopefully its true but considering the scope of what needs to be done, and I'm speculating- Finish clearing the land, removing tree stumps,grade and seed, pouring concrete/asphalt floor, construct an overhead roof of some sort, tables, a new berm/wall seperating the ranges, maybe a background berm and perhaps an electronic target/scoring system.....maybe more, maybe less but I'm sure it will involve more than a couple of days when all is done.

FYI Cherry Ridge Pistol Range Closed This Week
Once again its their lack of communication . Trying not to get my underwear all bunched up over this but you'd think an inconvenience as large as this would prompt an email blast to the general membership. You just know not everyone auotomatically calls the schedule hotline for a routine weekday visit.

Auto body paint question
I need to replace the front bumper cover on my Chrysler T&C. Any auto painters guesses on how many 12oz cans of spray paint to do it? 2, 6? I can get matching paint but at $25 a spray can dont want to be stuck with extras. My body shop replacement estimates started at$500 and went up from there and I figure to do it at least 1/2 that and spend the savings on more fun stuff like ammo.

I need help finding a shooting range
That Fairlawn range is one of what I call a boutique range. Last time i checked i left with a why bother but was a long time ago. These small local ranges tend to have very limited hrs if your not a LEO and can only handle so many people.Also from your original post they arent going to accomodate your 5.56 & 12 guage and are only 25 yds.I have no need for indoor ranges, I prefer shooting outdoors, but I believe a few of the others relatively close- Bullet Hole in Bellevue,.RTSP in Randolph can take some select long/shot guns but again ,25 yds if you just wanna make noise.Kind of silly IMO, others will dis-agree.However if you get into handguns then the indoor ranges are more appetizing.Cherry Ridge offers shooters pretty much anything this side of NJ legal.Dedicated handgun, 100-300 rifle, shotgun( slugs only 100 at rifle range) a clay range, and a22 plinking range. So many ways to show a pc of paper whos boss! However as with any range the weekends can get a bit busy.So I hear : ). CR has Membership Sundays, the first Sun every month. Do the 90 min hr lecture, pays your dues, your in. If you've never been there but it sounds like you want to join, get there extra early on sign up day and take a look around. Or if you can get there otherwise take a look, each area has its own parking .Also if I may, you may want to consider a basic firearms class- can only do you good.

Person to person gun sale
It is that simple. Read the instructions, Ok fine I'll help- gun info goes on top where it says "to be filled in by seller" then bottem left fill in "A" where it says "to be filled in by seller" then read bottem right about sending out the copies. This is for a handgun sale, not long gun.

WTB: Beretta 92A1
Yea, dont know why Beretta doesnt have the option for 15 mags in the 92A1 which effectivly makes the gun cost that much more to get them. They've got plenty of them for sure, just to lazy to pack them that way I guess. BTW- picked up my 92FS yesterday and CDNN has Beretta15 mags on sale $19 plastic base and $15 metal base. Got some coming my way.

Any Opinions on the S&W M&P Sport?
Thats right. Only hands-on time and experience can tell you excactly what you want- and even then those wants are always evolving. An AR noob can read all he wants about the multitude of features but you gotta start shooting first/getting in the game and starting with the basics is always a good start. At least thats what I'm doing!

Pistol Face-to-Face Purchase
I believe the the law protects the buyer "from any place of purchase" and back to his residence but with a "stranger" use discretion IMO. I do however think the range is the perfect place.

TV and Guns
Or the indoor shoot outs. After shooting stops the one guy calls out if everyones ok- I think my ears would be bleeding and unable to hear a thing. Also the one-handed semi hg draw that audibles the slide racking.

Anyone into Camping?
C'mon- if your on wheels how can that be serious camping?! Kidding. We used to go down to Cape May for two weeks every Aug for 15 yrs or soand actually lived in a big tent. The kids loved it, wife "tolerated" it and I was up for anything.Did get a small pop-up for the last 5 yrs, made a big dif getting off the ground.Lots of great family memories but everyone gets older, bigger and it was a good fun run. We originally started as a cheap, fun alternative to the pricy hotel/motel scene. Been a good few yrs since being there but I bet I can still get around town blindfolded.
