Probably better that way. Not like I can afford to go shooting these days anyway.

Still members only. I stopped in to see what their ammo prices were, because they keep sending emails touting that they have stock, but not listing prices. Saw blazer 9mm for $30/box. Laughed and left.

From what I*ve seen with on line prices plus shipping, that seems competitive.

Dress code sign for a reason - some folks come with loose fitting shirts flip flops etc. Also keeps trouble from happening (ie gang colors)
Tommy owns that whole complex. I also fail to see how designating some of the parking lot for his personal business is something to complain about.
The dress code is what it is. They get a lot of numbskulls from Wilmington and chester coming in there. Saw a guy once get escorted out because his pants were around his ass and his Taurus was literally about to fall on the floor. They didn't want him touching the gun so they walked him out. After he put the pistol in his car he came back in and everything was ok.
Re: Targetmaster - Chadd's Ford
I've been there to peruse, to buy ammo occasionally and to use the range now and again over the years. I will say that prices are pretty much list as has been said. Ammo when available is at usual retail ammo prices. The only reason to go there for me is simple geographic convenience. It's close by. The one thing consistent in my experience is the general arrogance of the employees. Friendly and welcoming customer service is not a thing there. Especially if you're a noob, they will have little tolerance for you. If you have a question about something out on the floor, good luck. Employees are rarely out on the floor so you must navigate through the customers hovering around the gun counters to ask your question.

No, but I've been to quite a few around here and across the country and don't usually experience what I'll describe as an intimidation or indifference vibe like at Target Master. I'll grant the store gets pretty busy at times and I'm sure that creates frustration and challenges, but again, it's called customer service. The idea is to provide a good experience for people who've come to spend their hard-earned money.

You've basically described almost every retail establishment in Delaware County, I'm afraid. I've been to Targetmaster and they were a bit impatient and didn't seem to care for new people much.
