The map to the club on their site is a little confusing (north is down, east is left) but with the magic of Google maps I was able to find a nice satellite image of the club grounds.

Unfortunately, being new to shooting and a workaholic, I don't know any members for the required two sponsors. If there are any pafoa members willing to help on that front, pls shoot me a PM
crashland,

I am a member at Dormont-Mt. Lebanon. As far as the 2 sponsors goes, it's just a formality. When I went to the meeting to join, the guy giving the safety talk was 1 of my sponsors, and he just handed my application to another member to be my 2nd sponsor.

I should mention that the lower pistol range is closed indefinately (there was some sort of safety issue from what I understand.)

As the upper ranges are closed/used for matches on Saturdays from April to October, that means only the plinking range is available, which can only be used by 1 group at a time, and no centerfire rifles are permitted there.

Hopefully, they will change/reschedule some of the matches so the upper ranges are available on Saturdays.

If you are interested, let me know; we can meet up and I can give you a tour.
