My wife and I are both members at cherry ridge. My good friend's brother is back from the marines and the four of us were planning on going to the range for a few hours. Something came up and she may not make it. Has anyone brought more than one guest? Any issues? I know the rules are one guest per member but wasn't sure how strict it is on weekdays when it's really quiet there.

 

Thanks

I have no direct experience with this but I would suggest you ask. It is against the rules. That said, if you indicate that it's not two newbie shooters, they may be more amenable to your request.

 

The point of the rule is that one person can watch one guest to make sure they're not sweeping the line or being unsafe. If the person is a Marine, you might get some slack. We we have a group of members there during one of our monthly shoots, they've given us the responsibility to watch over the guests more or less collectively. They expect the group to enforce and inform our guests of the rules and procedures. I don't know however what that means in terms of more guests than members. It's just not come up to my knowledge.

 

Sorry, not much help.

Have the marine show his active duty credentials.

That should get him him just based on respect!

 

I would be hard pressed to believe a gun range in NJ would not extend that courtesy to active military.

PM me before your trip. I'm close by and would be willing to sign in the jarhead.
