[QUOTE="Blitzfike, post: 2378236, member: 807"] I belonged to OKC gun club until I moved out to the Tuttle/Bridge Creek area. Then I joined TCGC as it was much more convenient. I am now a life member at TCGC, I go out and shoot, act as RSO when needed, do welding projects for the club and generally stay completely out of the politics of it all. I've had some of the same experiences as swampratt and can certainly understand his position. I really enjoy helping with the kids programs when we host them. I was out for the FFA shotgun shoot recently and allowed some of the participants to shoot the weapons I had brought that day with their parents permission. Check on liability insurance costs when you open your range, that gets expensive. If you are seriously considering that, you might want to either get a manufacturers license or partner with someone who already has one and offer ammo at the range. I talked with a couple of different indoor range owners in the Atlanta GA area and that is their business plan. They reload the brass left on the floor and offer it to range users. As to how far I would travel, 50 or 60 miles for a good safe place to shoot long range, up to a mile. I now travel about 25 miles routinely to shoot. Good luck with the idea... [/QUOTE]
