Gun club

Recommended Posts

I'm going to start a gun club in SoCal. Anybody interested PM me. Our range is in the Perris area. I have a dozen or so interested so far. Going to play tomorrow. We usually have lunch at the Perris DZ after the days shooting.

Hi ak,
Far out man!! Hope it works out what with CA's hellacious gun (or should I say ANTI-GUN!!) laws!! I live just about as far East (east of I-95 in NC) of you as one can get except for Maine. My shooting range is off my back deck. 'Just set up a bunch of empty cans, plastic bottles and paper targets out past the shed and plink away!!

Do I have to own a gun?



Depends on state law. In California, no. In Texas, yes; owning a gun is mandatory. Don't even get me started on the penalty for violation.



Don't forget Texas' Mandatory Hard Liquor and Handgun Night at the local bars.
Fortunately, I'm adhering to a pretty strict, uh, drug, uh, regimen to keep my mind, you know, uh, limber.

Hi sherm,
After seeing where you live and having lived within a stones throw of your current residence I would have to say NO. That is you don't "Have" to own a gun but if I were you a "Sherman Tank!!!" or the like would be my lightest option!! Definitely some good reliable side arms and long guns too!! Ruger has a really nice piece called a "Mini 14" I think in several different cal's. They are also running an "election special" from election day till inaugration day for the 20 round "Full cap" magazine for $29.95 or there abouts some 10 bucks off list price!! if bought through the company store!! Gettem' while they last!! Since "Acorn Head" made it to the top slot, Gun sales are thru the roof.!! Should have bought stock in S&W, Ruger, Remington, Springfield Armory, Mossberg, New England Arms, MADE IN THE USA by American Craftsman!! BTW is the "Stocade" still in business in GG (or is it HB?), how about "Cliffs' Guns in SNA??

If I ever get back to California I would love to come visit. Are you settin up just a range to start? Do you plan on puttin in a trap range also?

It's an private outdoor range (not mine) on 30 or so acres. All set up for whatever you want to do. Multiple ranges. Competetion every 2nd Sun. Lots of LEO types and just amatuers. Way laid back. We all share guns and just have fun.

Free. For now. Anyone can go as my guest. Edit to add: Well. Nothing is FREE. Buy your own ammo, food and drink. ;)

Well I'll tell you what. In light of the current economic situation and the likelyhood I may be unemployed for an undetermined amount of time, I have dialed back my spending until which time I feel more confident with the nation's economy as well as my own employment status. Once that happens you may not be able to get rid of me. ;)
