    Default Green Mountain Shooting Center

    Just a heads up, went down to GMSC this morning and was told the rifle range was shut down due to flooding they didn’t say when it was going to reopen.

    I went there on May 3 and used the rifle range. Everything was fine.

    Last time I was there the staff was talking about banning assault rifles on the rifle range because idiots kept destroying the target hangers by violating range rules and rapid firing more than 3 rounds at a time. This is one of the better ranges I've been to. Good people here.

    They told me it was a 30-30 . Same old BS.

    The only thing "good" about the place is the facilities. Its a GREAT place to zero an optic.

    I don't need to hear how my AR is a P.O.S. because it "needs a forward assist". Or how the guy doesn't like Mausers (when I'm firing a Finn M39). The know NOTHING about firearms, or ammo for that matter. A female employee belching in my face when I was filling out their paperwork was also great.

    If they can ever get a handle on what ammo they allow and don't allow, I'll go back. It's different every time.

    Someone should also tell them there is no reason the check the PRIMER with a magnet.

    Nice range, need to work on customer service BIG TIME.



    P.S. They are not "assault" rifles as they are SEMI-automatic. An assault rifle is FULLY-automatic.

    I usually go here when I don't want to drive up to the mountains but I really don't care for the "no standing" rule on the rifle range. The staff there always seemed nice to me!

    Default Zeroing

    I like an indoor range to zero in since there is no wind.

    AND ZERO SHOOTING GOING ON.

    I Called at 11:30 today and was told the range was open, but there were people just going back now so it should be free about 2 or so. I show up at 2 and the range is closed. WTF?

    I travel about 75% of the time and have two small kids. I can count on one hand the number of times I can get out and work up zeros and pick loads and THIS IS THE SECOND TIME THESE ASSTARDS HAVE DONE THIS. All I get is a John Candy wannab out front telling me that "Sorry folks, parks closed."

    WTF is wrong with these people? It isn't a nuclear reactor for Cripes sake. THEy have the strictest rules, make you pay by time and make you jock mags while the clock is ticking.

    If I ever go back it is to slip some SS109 and F up their back stop they seem to cherish so much.

    THey are dead to me, and they should be dead to you if you value your time.

    Assmunchers.

    F them.

    I used the pistol range there without any problems. They ran the magnet over my ammo also. I've always been the only person there shooting.

    Yea, I'm a High Power Shooter now! Any rewards?
