Will range fees be the standard or are they going to offer some reduced rate?

FlyinGN · September 17, 2005, 04:52 AM

we did not make any deals with them beforehand so I guess we will know when we get there and how many people we get to see whether we get a discount..

That's the place where all of these PA shoots originated.

I can't get off on anymore Saturdays for awhile.

I don't think they allow people to shoot reloads there, do they?

DanV1317 · September 17, 2005, 09:05 PM

no reloads? Count me out, i'm not even old enough to buy ammo yet!

FlyinGN · September 18, 2005, 12:10 PM

I do not recall any no reloads rules there.. Anyone know for sure??

GeorgeF · September 19, 2005, 08:58 AM

Further clarification - they let you shoot rifle caliber there, correct?

FlyinGN · September 19, 2005, 11:41 AM

correct

shaggy · September 20, 2005, 04:29 PM

FWIW, the last time I was there there was no rules or questions about reloads, unless you were using a firearm rented from CP. Rifle calibers are ok. Full auto is ok, but no bipod or tripod mounted beltfeds.

GeorgeF · September 20, 2005, 06:52 PM

But you can use bipod mounted magazine-fed automatic? BAR, Bren, etc . . . ? Just trying to clarify.

shaggy · September 20, 2005, 07:20 PM

I think its the bipod on the table that they object to - when I brought my 1919A6, I wasn't allowed to shoot it. FWIW, though, they gave me no hassles about other .308 shoulder fired machineguns. Bren? Maybe...

And oddly enough, one time while I was there they allowed a guy to clamp his handmade Gatling gun (in .30 carbine) on the table and crank it off that way.

GeorgeF · September 21, 2005, 12:27 PM

WOW! A Gatling in .30 Carbine. THATS a hoot.

shaggy · September 21, 2005, 03:55 PM

The best part was it was completely homemade - the owner built it... not from parts, but completely from scratch.

Absolutely beautiful.

FlyinGN · September 23, 2005, 12:08 PM

one week, so far 6 guys ar so..

shaggy · September 26, 2005, 07:32 PM

I'm out...

Ditched the g/f last weekend to go to a machinegun shoot - gotta make up for it this weekend.

nvrquit · September 26, 2005, 11:23 PM

Attending an IDPA match up in the W-B/Scranton area, at Factoryville Sportsman Club. A long ride(from NW Berks county) but worth it.

Everyone have a good time, shoot safe, shoot well!

FlyinGN · September 27, 2005, 06:56 PM

I am gonna NOT have this shoot saturday due to lack of interest.. Ill try again over winter.. Sorry guys.

shaggy · September 27, 2005, 07:37 PM

FlyinGN -

The interest is there, but I'd likely get beaned with a frying pan if I ditch the g/f for another weekend at the range. Maybe sometime in November?

FlyinGN · September 28, 2005, 05:20 AM

yea sounds good. Lets try again in the winter..
