Was wondering if anyone would be interested in doing a gun range meet? Why do we always have to go to a restaurant? Im sure most of YOU have a gun right? There is a nice new indoor range off 45 and 646.. http://www.thearmsroomtx.com/ or for a outdoor range there is a nice one in Texas City ..http://www.texas-city-tx.org/Shootin...otingRange.htm ....much cheaper for the Texas City one, and you can shoot all day (if you have that much ammo) Both have good parking. Let me know what you think

I dunno, if you pick a restauraunt in the right (wrong) part of town - you might still have to use your gun.

Even on a weekend?

I'd be in. Never been to an indoor range, can't imagine I'd like it.

Permitted Calibers: All rifles, up to .30 caliber (excluding Magnums) are permitted on the first 5 rifle lanes. All pistols are permitted (including Magnums) on all range lanes. Shotguns ARE NOT permitted, however the Taurus Judge can be shot on our range.

I have alot of shotguns mostly....

The Texas City range has a Skeet range...also wouldn't mine sharing my pistols (if you buy your own ammo)

The indoor range is really nice.They loan out the nice electronic head phones, the target shows the distance you are shooting from, and it is air conditioned....but it is more expensive.

ive been to only outdoor places like carters country. i have my Sig 556, i just have it in pieces right now. cleaning it and trying to order some new stuff for it. but target ammo is cheap as hell for it so im in either way. i just get more fun out of shooting skeet vs a stationary paper target. just my .02

Is the shooting range in George Bush Park near Highway 6 and Westheimer closer for everyone? Just throwing it out there... I know I would go if it was there.

I would go if it were at this location (American Shooting Centers), but I have no guns. Might be able to convince my dad to come with me and bring some, however.

its closer for sure , and they seem pretty cheap. not sure about the facilities themselves or the staff, ive heard some horror stories about that place (American Shooting Centers) has anyone been there personally?

10-15 times with my dad, and he's probably gone more than 50 times on his own or with friends. They have a lot of area for pistol shooters and rifle shooting. All pistol and rifle ranges are covered up to 200 or 300 yds (one or the other, can't remember). The staff organizes cease-fires up to 100yds, but past that, the shooters themselves organize with each other for cease fires (works a lot better since there are a lot less people shooting at longer distances).

Also a separate area for shotguns.

I can't say much about the staff. Our interaction basically consists of going to the office, letting them know we will be shooting at 200yds or greater, paying our dues, then shooting. In that sense, we have never had any problems.

I have been a member since 2009. The only horror story I heard from them was a rifle owner who killed himself in the parking lot while casing his gun in the car.
Darwinism acts again, as it should! They have expanded their safety rules over the years due to events like this. It is worst on weekends when the stupid masses arrive. Best during the week when it is not crowded when the real guns owners are there.
