RE: Shooting Range Question
new jersy stinks for ranges. if you join a private one it will cost you a couple of hundred plus hours of work time on the range. i use the one at fort dix. its open on weekends and wed. and friday nights also. i also use a public range in pennsy on route 6 and lake wllenpaupack.

RE: Shooting Range Question
the closest NJ range for me is 45 minutes away. There is one on Rt9 in DE that only takes me 20 min to get to. Do you just take your license with you ? Any DE guys know what you can shoot at Omeladden on RT9 ( dont know thw correct spelling ) ie ...ML , shotgun etc ?

RE: Shooting Range Question
I live in NJ , however there is a range in Delaware that is closer to me then one in Jersey. Can a residents of other states use a range in another ?
I do most of my target shooting in Maryland; outdoor rifle ranges in Northern Virginia, for the most part, are either inadequate or expensive.

[quote]Absolutely! Federal law protects gun owners who travel across state lines to travel to a range, gun show, or gunsmith. Just make sure you case everything unloaded.
Check and make sure. Probably true as to long guns but maybe not as to pistols. I live in NJ and hunt in NY and have occasionally shot at NY ranges, However I cannot ever bring a pistol to NY even if I am going to the range, and never to hunt( from the law it even appears that traveling through NY to get somewhere else with a pistol is also a big no-no) unless i first obtain a pistol permit there which has a chance of success about equal to the proverbial snowball. NRA site should give the laws. No harm in checking and gun crimes are serious even if done innocently. take care.

RE: Shooting Range Question
Slugman the name of the range in Delaware is Shooters Choice it is a retired Trooper that I worked with his name is Dave Lawson, adnd it would be in the Dover listings on 411. It is about 3 mile N of Dover Downs or Dover International Speedway whichever you prefer on Rt 13 Southbound at Cheswold... Call em see if they offer what you need...
