cybe Posted February 7, 2014 Report Share Posted February 7, 2014 How do you stand those asshats? I've had no trouble with the range personnel, they're first-name-friendly. But the fudds in the shop are unpleasant, to be sure - older they are, the more arrogant and crotchety. So I shop at GunEnvy instead.

Tractor Posted February 7, 2014 Report Share Posted February 7, 2014 I've been thinking of getting some people together for some shooting, its been way to cold to just step out back and fire off a few rounds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chief8one Posted February 12, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 12, 2014 Well, I'm kind of bored. I got out of training way earlier than expected. What is the closest indoor range near Westerville? Also, how does it work? Pay by the hour? Do you have to buy their ammo? Proper etiquette? I know about gun safety etc. Is it like bowling and you wait for the person to your right to finish? I have never shot at a pay range. Sorry for the newb questions.

Dharris89 Posted February 12, 2014 Report Share Posted February 12, 2014 New Albany is probably the closest to Westerville. You bring your own stuff or rent theirs. I think it's a flat fee but it's been a while since I was there. http://www.nasr.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chief8one Posted February 12, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 12, 2014 what is the proper way to walk into a range. Ammo and magazines in one bag gun in its case? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dharris89 Posted February 12, 2014 Report Share Posted February 12, 2014 Usually gun in case. Ammo and gun can be in the same bag as long as it's not loaded. Some ranges check to make sure you are not shooting steel cased ammo. When in doubt call the range. The website is in the previous post. I know where it is but it's been years since I shot there. That's what LEPD and Blackwing do. You will need ear and eye protection unless you want to rent theirs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mojoe Posted February 12, 2014 Report Share Posted February 12, 2014 Posting this for Chief8one: LOL well, I just have a hand gun. I feel like 300 might be excessive. I have a hundred on hand, but I was thinking of going to the range tonight. What is an average amount of rounds one would shoot at a range per hour. Probably seems like a stupid question. Sorry I'm new to this stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sol740 Posted February 13, 2014 Report Share Posted February 13, 2014 I want to do tactical drills and generally be a danger to the folks around me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tractor Posted February 15, 2014 Report Share Posted February 15, 2014 Private land > * Gun crew meet I went to was a blast. Would go again if on private land. I could have a group shooting pistols and shotguns at my place. Rifles could be used, but we'd have to keep them firing at least level with the terrain. I have 100yards marked off just before my tree line. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mojoe Posted February 15, 2014 Report Share Posted February 15, 2014 If the time and location work out, and if you would like, I can be a range safety for the day. I want to help, but safety is a big thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Diamonds Posted February 15, 2014 Report Share Posted February 15, 2014 I can shoot today or tomorrow Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cybe Posted February 15, 2014 Report Share Posted February 15, 2014 Went to AIMHI today, spent nearly 400 rounds. Very casual, larger space. No time limits. The ventilation is not as good. Oddly, the large space (and required safety video) seem more safe than LEPD's little hallway. I think I'll switch my membership there.

Tractor Posted February 16, 2014 Report Share Posted February 16, 2014 I'm not really into standing in snow and shooting/walking through my field to set targets etc. Maybe in spring or if we get some weather above 50. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
