Gun clubs/hunting associations near Plum/Monroeville area??

[imp81318]

Hey, I'm looking for an inexpensive gun club/hunting club for my father-in-law. He will probably only get out to shoot a few times a year, when my brother-in-law or I are in town so I'm looking for something to join pretty cheap. Facilities don't have to be very nice, just a simple pistol range, outdoors is fine.

Anyone know of anything in the Plum/Monroeville/Murraysville area?

Ignore if it says "sponsorship required", "new members must attend monthly meetings"


We have dedicated plate racks on the pistol range and gongs on the rifle range.

$100 to join, $60 annual dues. It's pretty nice, but it's not a country club. Check out one of the group shoot threads, this is from last sundays shoot:

Anyone know of anything else a bit cheaper? I'm really looking for more of a "sportsman's association" than a "range". The PMSC option is not ideal because I'm looking to get a membership for my FIL but most of the times that he'd be going he'd likely be taking by SIL's husband and I with him, which wouldn't be allowed by PMSC's rules. Also, it is a bit steep to pay since we're only going to be getting there maybe 2-3 times a year...

Hi Roland,

So I can ignore the sponsorship / monthly meetings statements? Nice! We moved to the area a half year ago and when we narrowed the area we'd likely buy a home in to a reasonable drive from PMSC I tried to get to a monthly meeting to join. I've had three months in a row where I had to do something else on the night of the meeting and, finally!, I could keep the first Wednesday in December open. Ah, oops, the meeting this month is the second Wednesday when I have to be back in New Hampshire for a few days... Can I just mail in the application without listing a sponsor? (Or, as Mr. Rodgers used to say, "Would you like to be my friend?") :-)

Hey. Yeah, don't worry about the sponsorship or making it to the monthly meetings. You can print out the application and just mail a small photo of you and your check to Kenny, and he'll send your membership card. There is an additional $10 fee for the gate access card you'll need to send. But that is good for 20 years. If you have any other questions, just pm me.

Thank you! See you at the club.
