French creek outfitters? Ammo rules?

[Quaker]

Walmart antigun in some respect.

Why risk being turned down? Who cares if they are in a box or a bag?

If anyone wants to shoot at Kimberton Fish and Game Association (less than ten minutes from French Creek Outfitters) on a Sunday evening, let me know. Best time to get on the Pin/Combat range is about dinner time (1730) or thereabouts. Typically the range is empty at that hour and we can have it to ourselves. I try to limit guests to one each time so as not to abuse the privilege.

Membership is a pretty good deal at $85 a year. Cheaper than paying FCO or Targetmaster every time you go. Can't recall what the initiation fee is, but not all that high.

Jimmy,

I haven't seen that, but I probably don't pay enough attention to the infrequent newsletters, etc. Thank you for bringing it to my attention. I'll check and get back to everyone.

The last time I asked about it was last week,and it was still capped but they were going to revisit the issue. I kind of like it not crowded don't you?

I very much like it not overcrowded. Maybe it's just the times I go, but most of the time I'm there, it's empty.

It's been a year since I was there, but the last I was, there weren't any restrictions other than AP.

Was a member of Kimberton some years ago. Membership was about 450. The club no doubt wants to limit membership to avoid overcrowding, especially considering it sits on a small 33 acres surrounded by houses. I especially enjoyed shooting at Kimberton back in the day when they had the indoor range in operation and anyone with more than two years as a member was able to get a key to enter within. The range backstop was equipped to only handle lead bullets. This caused a serious problem with the air quality of the shooting area, despite the fact the club installed a stronger ventilation system.

Does the pin range/combat range still have the cast bullet only restriction?
