You must not have shot clays lol. It gets expensiveWent today for the first time. Really nice range and pretty cheap.
Funny - a decade ago their Nazi RSO wanted me to go to the office to let them make copies of my NFA paperwork. I laughingly told him “Yeah, I bring ALL my illegal SBRs, SBSs, and suppressors to shoot at a public range for the whole world to see” before finishing up and leaving.i stopped shooting there when the RSO asked to see paperwork on my SBR. i politely asked if he had LEO creds and he said he didn't. i told him in a respectful way that it was none of his business. he then said if i wouldn't comply with his request i would be asked to leave. i told him at that point i was leaving anyway. he said a couple things to try to bait me but i packed up and left. won't EVER give them another dime of my money. they are 10 minutes from me and i'll drive 40 to go to Element and shoot clays out there instead.
As I understand the law about tax stamps: ATF and IRS agents are the only people you are required to show your TAX stamp to. With that being said, sworn LEO can ask to see your tax stamp, you are not required to show the tax stamp to them. It is always better to show LEO, so you do not get detained until ATF or IRS agents show up. That is how tax stamps were explained to me. The reason being it is a tax, and your federal taxes are private information. I could be wrong, and if I am, please guide me to the laws that correct my thinking.i stopped shooting there when the RSO asked to see paperwork on my SBR. i politely asked if he had LEO creds and he said he didn't. i told him in a respectful way that it was none of his business. he then said if i wouldn't comply with his request i would be asked to leave. i told him at that point i was leaving anyway. he said a couple things to try to bait me but i packed up and left. won't EVER give them another dime of my money. they are 10 minutes from me and i'll drive 40 to go to Element and shoot clays out there instead.
Welp, their RSOs are neither and they can straight long walk off short pier. Not my duty to show proof or in the scope of their authority to ask. Fed bois can ask and in the presence of authority, I'll show. Otherwise, they can sod right straight off ..As I understand the law about tax stamps: ATF and IRS agents are the only people you are required to show your TAX stamp to.

If you actually paid money to exercise your God given right and still thought it was cheap, you need new friends... that own land out in the county, free private gun ranges and/or hunting club gate combinations. I haven't paid to go shooting in years

Sure, right up to the point that they are breaking state law. I asked for their Standard Procedures and Policy concerning viewing and copying NFA forms when my incident happened...If you play on someone else's property, you play by their rules or you don't play.
I actually got a membership as a gift for Christmas this year. Not going to use the range part but I am excited about possibly getting into to shooting skeet and clays.Went today for the first time. Really nice range and pretty cheap.
They aren't much better with cadence of fire, guns in cases and the like. I would still shoot there before santa rosa...ERGC is only another mile down the road.
Not the 200+ times I've shot there in the past decade, but mmmkay….They aren't much better with cadence of fire, guns in cases and the like. I would still shoot there before santa rosa...
i'm slow rollin' it bruh... keep it on the hushie hush.Not the 200+ times I've shot there in the past decade, but mmmkay….
I want everyone to think ERGC sux because it means more empty ranges for me to do whatever I want!
I will say I haven't had anyone say too much about the slow fire policy - but when I go out there is to do requals for other officers so show my credentials the owners smile we sign in and good to go.I never had an RSO there ask for any of my nfa paperwork, but it’s been a few years since I’ve shot there. I stopped going because of their slow fire rules and not being able to collect my own brass from forward of the firing line. I’ll add this to the reasons I’ll probably never go back. I need friends like Ravens.
What's the deal with guns in cases? I keep telling myself to join there.They aren't much better with cadence of fire, guns in cases and the like. I would still shoot there before santa rosa...
