    Question A place to shoot

    I miss the public range across from Nox. Park and I don't want to drive to Pottstown. Is there a free range anywhere closer? I'm used to the good old days when you could find a piece of woods and shoot against a hillside. Kinda dates me, huh. Can you shoot in the Game lands when it's not hunting season?

    Hey neighbor,
    Don't know of any free ranges, but I shoot at Ridge and Valley Rod and Gun Club in Coopersburg. It ain't free but its like $60 to join for a whole year and then $40 every year thereafter. Still cheaper than most places except Paletown Rod and Gun Club but you can only join there in February. Pm me if you wanna check it out sometime.
    Now less Glock, more H&K :)

    It's $65 to join Ridge and Valley now. I am member there too.

    I'm also a member of Ridge and Valley... in fact, I just joined this month and spent a good portion of my afternoon at the pistol range today.

    It's a little bit of a drive for me, coming from Levittown, but the membership fee is very reasonable.. I didn't have to attend any meetings, get a sponsor, or any of that stuff.

    It's not the biggest range in the world, but I think it's just what I've been looking for.

    Once I am back on my feet, I am good for that. I have been chomping at the bit to get out but I can't trudge through the snow to get my targets at the moment.

    I would be down for that, too. It was a bit treacherous at the pistol range, going down and up the hill in the snow... but it was great that I had the place to myself.

    But, I would love to meet up with some other members and have a good time on the range.

    It looks like a bit of a drive but the membership price is right. if any one wants to shop me the club it looks like a place id be interested in.
