BlueCore Shooting Center - Lakewood

[Fromk]

I guess you'll never do any competition shooting either then.

My thoughts exactly. Is it really that big of a deal? The range I worked at didn't allow any loaded guns (or for that matter one with a closed action) in the lobby unless you were a uniformed, on duty police officer. Never heard a single complaint.

I don't like that rule either, and probably wouldn't go there, but I'm not going to go so far as to say that you are surrendering your rights; because you're not.

So Silver Bullet was packed today and there was an hour or more wait. I thought it was a good opportunity to check out Blue Core, so I drove down there. CLOSED! I figured they would be open on Sundays? Doesn't really say anywhere on their doors or windows that I could find.

Thought I give them a chance to show me around the range and ask questions, might have even bought some ammo and shot there, but I guess it wasn't meant to be.

I also have to note, that if I must buy a box of ammo at whatever their retail price is, and 4 shooters on the range if I take the whole family, I'm looking at dropping $150 for a trip to the range. With my own ammo, that price drops significantly.

Hopefully they can get on here and offer up some New Customer discounts or something? (hint hint)

O'well, back to Silver Bullet, which turned out to be a great time.

Brought my wife to Silver Bullet yesterday where she shot for the first time ever (Armscor M1600 .22LR). They had said about an hour and half wait but I don't think we had to wait any more than 20 minutes. We had fun with our own targets and ammo and their ventilation seems better than the last time I was there.

Or we approach them as members of "COLORADO AR-15 SHOOTERS" and see if they can give us a members discount card or something??
What do you think Marlin??

I'm not trying to run them out of business, just trying to get a reasonable price or perk to try out their range. Grand Opening type of thing?

I'm with ya man, but I think a CO AR-15 membership would be cool!! Just log in @ the range to show we are members and get a 3% discount or what ever? Every little bit helps. They would make a hell of a lot of money off of US if they would! Me especially. I can shoot where I live but only to an extent, don't want to piss off neighbors!

When it was Green Mountain they made me give up my concealed carry gun to go into the rifle range. Didn't make any since to me, but it was their property.

Yep I had to leave all pistols and pistol ammo with them up front to enter the rifle range.

Firing Line has the same rule.

Only other place I'd seen that is in FL, where its the law. I guess we voluntarily give up our rights here.

Maybe a month or two ago I went to Firing line and asked what the best way to bring my pistol inside was if I didn't have my case. One of the guys said since I have my CCW I can have it "Locked and loaded as long as it remains concealed until I am on the range."
Then last week I went in with my 44 in a case, bought a box of range ammo, and had a box of .40 with me for my carry pistol. He never said anything about the .40 ammo or asked any questions.
