JACKASS REPORT TOBYHANNA RANGE

[jcabin]

This is one reason why you should bring atleast one friend to the range. I have seen some real shady people there before, but they usually leave when others show up.

MY pickup is BLUE. (Thank goodness).

If I'm not mistaken, SGL regs require someone act as an RO. How and who is designated isn't spelled out though. I guess the coot took it on himself and got power mad. You took the right route on this, left. Not much sense in a confrontation with someone who you deem losing control of themselves and having weapons. I no longer use SGLs but always got the phone number to the ranger office having juristiction over the range for just such events. Easier to call in the warden than debate with a potentially dangerous armed man.

I will keep my eyes open for this guy, especially because I mostly go during the week. Would love to just join a private club but their are none close to me that are currently accepting new members.

Blue Ridge Cherry Valley costs $100.00 per year and it is well worth not having to put up with that shit.

Yeah, but you need to know someone to get sponsored.

That's my problem. Would love to join up and a hundred dollars a year is fine to avoid SGL ranges but the places require you to be sponsored or their not accepting new members.

maybe on paper, but from my experience there's hardly ever an RO there. Now that I've shot elsewhere the SGL is way more scary.

I don't know what you guys are bitching about... where else can you go and see people shooting 9mm's at 100 yard targets and then look disappointed when they don't hit them? or "pro's" doing quick draw drills on the 50 yard targets? people getting cracked in the head with scopes, idiots missing the paper and blaming hte gun...


its ALL at the local SGL ranges :P.

I haven't been to the one in Tobyhanna one yet but I'm sure it will be the same.


as for the douche bag in the red truck I would have kindly advised him of the correct rules, I've had to do it before with WCO's at the Rt 100 range ("are you sure a folding stock is legal?" :P ). Take a minute to educate and he won't ruin someone elses day

I don't know. I'd like to hear Goatee guy's side of the story. The OP didn't give much detail. What exactly did he say "you can't do this or that"? Is it possible you were not in accordance with all the multitudes of SGL range rules and it was just his manner that pissed you off?

Not picking a fight but there's two sides to every story and the truth is somewhere in the middle.
