Concealed weapon permit or license is the easiest to tell people. When you call it a license to carry firearms, many questions come along with the nomenclature. A CWP is the easiest way to describe it to folks. Remember, there are those who believe there is the ficticious "National Carry Permit" just like how people think that one must have a Class 3 license to possess an NFA weapon, when there is no such license, just the SOTs and transfer stamps.

Sure, there are alot of people who believe ficticious information, but aren't we (or Frank's in this case) simply adding to that by not providing the proper information the first time? I would think it's easier to answer a few questions up front rather than attempt to change a persons' (improper) belief after the fact...

Either way, they did a nice job cleaning the place up, I hope they succeed.

Going there tomorrow morning when they open up. It's been a few years since i've been there and I just found out they were back in business. I tried to go there last year and was very dissapointed to see that they were out of business.

Outside ammo is allowed. I spoke with the NRA Endorsed Insurance Program office and it was explained that the range will have a no reload policy. This is intended primarily that we do not sell reloads. If you have a bag or case, it will not be inspected and we will not scrutinize every round shot. Members sign a waiver and non members sign a waiver on each visit. It's on the shooter if he/she is injured or firearm damaged. Get the hint?

this is from the website.
"Factory ammo only please, as insurance regulations forbid use of any reloads."
My membership at PAG is up, looking for a place to shoot. if you tell me that i can shoot my reloads then i'm there. I guess i'll just shoot my rifle at holmesburg.

Just wanted to let anyone know in Philly that the old Security Programs/Britts gun shop & range has now reopened under the name Frank's Gun Shop-Double Tap Shooting Range.

So if you are in the area stop by and show your support!

The hours are Mon-Fri 11a-9p, Sat 11a-6p, Sun 12p-5p.

4730 Blakiston Street
Philadelphia, PA 19136

Right off Torresdale ave near the Comcast tower.

I know that I am a bit late but I just wanted to say that this is music to my ears! I got my ACT 235 and my first 2 carry guns from security programs. Question, do you guys still offer discounts on range memberships for certified security officers?

I suppose this is probably the wrong place to ask, but do they carry RIA's? :B
