So does it have the silly rules about capacity and such?
Be safe (and stay at home, if it does).

Re: Little Pine State Park
Thanks!
I always thought the restrictions at the SGL Ranges were established with hunting in mind. Here is a range not administered by "the hunting people" and they still have the rules. Peculiar, just peculiar.
Be safe (and I will just keep shooting on my side of the County).

That makes some sense then. I will say, reading the rules I always assumed it was an sgl range. I guess I'll just stick with the other ranges I'm a member at. I'm not going to pay extra to shoot somewhere with those rules.
Where in js. area are you? I thought I was the only local on here.

I have had a membership and shot there in the past. That has been years. I also had to join when the NRA had an Instructor's Course there.
I have a range on my property so it is tough to beat for convenience. I do still get a Family Membership at North Mountain Sportsman's www.northmt.com I have not been there in years but I do it just to support them.

That's funny right there. Nothing low capacity about you. You have more hi-cap stuff than Carter had liver pills
Be safe (and Happy New Year! I hope all is well).

Definitely hard to beat a private setup like that. I have a range setup on my parents property, It is only 50yds though. I joined there for the longer ranges for rifle mainly. It is more convenient than making the trip to my cabin, which is an hour away.

Re: Little Pine State Park
I just came back from the range at LPSP. I stopped by the office to get a permit and found out the fee was waived for the remainder of 2015. I saved 20 bucks. I still completed the application and got the paper permit to hand from the rear view mirror when using the range. The fee, if any, for 2016 is undetermined.
The range wasn't busy at all. One guy was just finishing up when my wife and I pulled up. Another couple came shortly thereafter and went through about 3 mags at the pistol range and left. We stayed about an hour and I put 32 rounds through my .243 Winchester single shot.
The refurbished range is very nice. The covered shooting stations for rifle out to 100 yards kept us from baking in the sun.
