How well and how fast do they plow the road to Cherry ridge ?? Will they postpone orientation until next week if it snows hard and deep or will we have to wait another month ???

The guy who is the head RO lives there who is also in charge of cleaning up the place. His truck has a plow on so it should be plowed well in advance. I don't see you having any problem with the meeting. There might be a group of us there shooting as well if its not too cold.

Yes spoken like a man with a big ol" Pickup truck to a dude with a Honda Accord ! LOL. Don't worry about me I'm chomping at the bit to get shooting.

The range is ALWAYS open cept Christmas and the two work weekends.

 

They plow range road better than the county does Canistear.

 

The firing ports aren't shoveled so sometimes you're standing in snow, but you can GET to the ports.

I'll be there to sign up on Sunday as well. I've been itching to do some nice outdoor shooting for a while.

 

For those who are already memebers, how much does the folding target stand they sell cost? Just wanna be sure to have enough on me for the membership & a stand.

if i remembe correctly its 25 dollars

That is correct.

OK, I'm officially a member (w00t).

 

In fact, I got the family membership so I can bring the wife/kid. Shot the AR today, but just a quick 20 rounds.

Grats Bob!

 

Shout when you're going to shoot. Someone always comes.

 

You get a shotgun yet?

I am a new member today as well. I don't know what is normal for enrollment but I was surprised by the size of enrollees. I expected around 25 people max. But it was a Huge showing over 100 people. Many brought there whole families to enroll including a few who are at the minimum age. One can only think with this turnout in the dead of winter the second amendment is indeed alive and thriving in the garden state. We had a brief introduction from the president who mentioned the added benefits we get such as legal consul on gun law questions. He also mentioned the election results and which anti gunners were defeated as well as the legal battles being waged on our behalf over one gun a month. As well as some other laws that will be be targeted in the future.

Although admission took a while it was interesting. I did not meet any gun forum members today due to coats covering shirts no doubt.

Mark and a few of the others gave me the heads-up that it'd be crowded; apparently it always is. I think the cold probably scared a few away, but it seems the 2nd amendment is alive and well with, at least, the populace of NJ.

Not yet; we're just renovating our kitchen & bath so I got the OK for the membership, but, alas, no more firearms just yet. In a couple months probably though.

Congrats as well. The membership day has been 100+ per month since November of 08. I don't know how many members there are now, but it's well over 5k by now.

 

You won't have any issues getting a port. The only thing that can be a slight problem is the stands at the pistol range when shooting closer than 25yds.

 

The main issues that new members tend to do is the following:

 

Handle anything on the table during a cold range

standing in front of the yellow line during a cold range

Opening their gun cases pointed the wrong way and sweeping the line.

 

This is not to chastise anyone, after a few trips, you'll see new members doing the same thing. Everyone is nice at the range with the exception of the one unofficial range nazi. The ROs are great guys. You'll mostly see Gene and sometimes see the other Gene(The boss) and Scott. They are all friendly guys so if you have a question, just ask.

 

See ya at the range.

Welcome to the club, guys!

Just got back from signing up also. The place was packed. I couldn't believe the number of people that were there. You would have thought they were giving stuff away! Even though it was cold as hell out I still made my way down to pistol range a put a couple hundred down range. Even with the amount of people that showed for the meeting there was still plenty of room at the p.r. Met 3 of the RO's and they were really cool, and helpful with explaining the sequence of events for when the range is cold, and hot. Everyone there is real cool, met alot of nice people. Much to my surprise there was even s guy I work with that joined today. I didn't even know he owned a gun . Can't wait to get back there this upcoming weekend. Just hopefully its warmer, my hands were frozen.

Ugh I didnt wake up, guess I got to wait another month haha
