There are 3 main reasons why I won’t join.  I don’t like the “required 8 hours of duties and services”, the fact that you can’t carry concealed, and the 10-buck fee you pay every time you shoot on top of the 75 bucks annual fee.

I have been a member of various other organizations and I know how that “required duties and services” thing usually works.  10% of the members do 90% of the work; I don’t want any part of that.  Learned my lesson with organizations that require that crap.

The fact that you can’t carry concealed in there is just ridiculous.  It’s a range for Christ’s sake!  People who have “jumped through the hoops” to get the proper licenses to carry concealed should be afforded that opportunity in my opinion.  I understand the insurance thing, the liability thing…..yada, yada, yada…ect.  Doesn’t matter, I don’t like it.

And last but not least I really don’t like the fact that they charge 10 bucks every time you shoot.  Here is a post from a different site where I addressed that very point with who I assume is higher management from the range:

Okay. Makes sense.  Thanks a bunch for the info Jiff. Thats all new news to me.  10 bucks a pop is a tad bit ridiculous in my opinion too.

1. Firearms may be brought into and taken out of the building only in the following manner: Cased, bagged, or otherwise completely enclosed: unloaded only. Uncased, un-bagged, or otherwise unsecured firearms may not be carried in hand, loaded or unloaded, in any portion of the building. Concealed Weapons Permit Holders. Concealed firearms are permitted if you possess a current CCW permit. Concealed firearms must remain so until you are at the firing line and wish to shoot that firearm. Once drawn, the firearm must remain visible on the shooting bench until the session is completed. Firearms may only be returned to concealment when the individual is ready to leave the firing area, and plans to keep the firearm concealed.

So basically they are telling you that you can't practice from your concealed carry holster......that's just awesome!!!  Makes a lot of fricken sense!!

Wow...didn't know it was $10 per time for the Fargo range...what's the memebership fee for then?

Why is it dangerous to practice from a holster?  It is allowed at the Minot range, but the Range Officers will shut you down immediately if they see anything unsafe.  It should be a matter of common sense and the discretion of the Range Officers.
