Buy some land....yep I will but I have to get out of NY first. Sell my house, sell my business, move and start up a new business.

Trouble is some of my customers don't want me to leave

How many acres do you think I will need to set up a small range for informal use,and a 5 stand

Without any yuppie tree huggers in the area.


Dead coffee?....yeah right.

Come to think of it, as I was leaving I saw a small range on the left side of the road leading to the PA turnpike. Spotted targets on a backstop and heard gunfire.

That is just what we need, a small range about 5 firing points. Enough to shoot informally and get to yap with other TFL'ers.

Some place Soda can't hide in the corner with his FAL and take one shot every 15 minutes

Well we did have 4 tables 5 counting the one I held. But it was way too crowded and everyone kept showing up at different times. I'm going to look into other ranges but I doubt we can rent them ALL TO OURSELVES. I if we do anything in the next two months lets go some place other than W&W just to be different.

I do know a place that is very secluded but its on back roads and not an easy place to give direction to. My friend has a cabin up there and we could hang out on the land there and cook up some grub if we had too. Its a state run range but NOBODY uses it. But during hunting seasons its a typical "Sight in your gun range".

SodaPop,

I found two matches for that town in PA. I think you are talking about the one off of 222 right? Just a few miles west of Quakertown. Will see when I can make it out there. Should be before December. Will figure it once I get back from my trip

The range is in Eckville PA. And its all back roads and farm land. Very difficult place to give directions. The only thing that I hate about it is.............

3rd limit for rifle and handguns

Anal Game Commision people

The worst Game Commission guy that use to patrol that range got beat up a few years ago He use to fine everyone for everything until one day someone popped him in the jaw

I have looked around at other places but they are all gun clubs and we aren't members so forget about being able to rent them to ourselves.

Geoff- What kind of business do you have?

I have access to a range...........

SodaPop,
I know I haven't been to any of the shoots as of yet but I have
access to a range in N.J. that TFLers can use without anyone else
present. I belong to a gun club in Barnegat N.J. called the Buckeye Gun
Club right off of 72E. You would have to leave all of those evil assult
weapons behind but for rifle, pistol, or shotgun shooting there would be
no problem. It has a 50yd range but also has a 100 yd range if need
be. You could have easily 5 shooters on the line at once. Next to the
range is a hunting lodge (a rancher) that has working facilities for
food (bring or buy your own) and the restroom along with a fireplace.
All that the club would ask for is a donation for using such
facilities. It would be ideal for just the TFLers of N.J./Del./
P.A./N.Y. to get together without all the other range hassels. If you
or anyone else is interested in doing something to that effect contact
me and we will set it up.

Is there a place to pattern a shotgun? I could spend a whole day just doing that.

Woah! What are the laws concerning pistols in NJ. Can an out of state shooter bring in his pistols without going to jail? Better know beforehand.

K80Geof,
As long as you have them locked up in the trunk unloaded and the ammo is locked up in a separate container and you do not have in your possesion magazines that can hold more than 15 rounds you are allowed to transport them to the range. But I believe that you have to go straight to the range without any unnessesary stops and when you leave the range you have to do the same going home. Check out the N.R.A's web site for New Jersey laws if you have any questions. A copy of your sales reciepts would also not hurt if you did get pulled over. K80Geof, didn't I meet you at the U.N. rally in N.Y. this year? Pokerface was the band that was playing and it was to protest the small arms proliferation that the U.N. was trying to pass. I only met one TFL person and I'm sure it was you....

OK As long as I won't get arested for carrying pistols in my lockbox than let's set this up.

Can we set up a place to pattern shotguns, if yes than this time I will bring my roll of paper

What dates, and who is coming.

Yes we can........

We can set up a place to pattern shotguns. I'm going to start a new thread to anounce the shoot.
