who would be interested in a shooting g2g at a range? or if someone has a piece of land that would be cool too.

post up if you would be interested and aslo what range you shoot at. i shoot at the garland public range, it's an outdoor with pistol and rifle. i know that's probably not close to most so i figure a range in the middle of the metroplex would probably be best for everyone.

It's right behind Texas Raceway.

Sounds like a good idea to me.

I bought a Glock 29 at the gun show last week and would like to put a few rounds through it. Maybe bring out the Remington 700 pss and sks too

EDIT: Count me out they dont allow FMJ and thats all I have and dont feel like buying some expensive hp or lead tips just to shoot out there when I have 2k rounds of FMJ

Ever since Elm Fork took over the rifle range out there it's gotten much better. Awesome shotgun sports park as well.

They do group rentals if that's something that people would be up for.

Hell, the Garland range is 53 miles from me, and Elm Fork is 63.....With enough heads up, I could be down for either one


What about range fees?

Guess I could be unlazy and read the website.....

i know the garland range is $20 the first day($10 application fee + $10 shooting fee) and only $10 a day after that (shooting fee)

Elm fork is $10 iirc, max of 15. Just make sure to bring your own ammo. They were charging $10 more than walmart does.
