New Indoor Range In Colorado Springs

[Hoser]

It looks like a new indoor range is going to be built here in Colorado Springs. It will be on the east side of town just past Peterson AFB on Hwy 24.

Contact Greg Lent at mygunwerks@aol.com for more details.

Maybe with a little luck we can run a night IPSC league like the old days at Caswells.

Any chance of a Military membership? Maybe one that covers Reserve members, too?

[Hoser]

I asked the same question about Military memberships.

I did not get a "Why didnt we think of that?" but a "We will think about it."

When 50% of all troops in Iraq are Reserve and Guard I think it its only appropriate that the guard and reserve be included.

UPDATE:


Hi Roger

Wellllllllllllll, we've picked out the colors for the died concrete floor, removed a wall that was dividing the classroom (over 400sq ft now!), relocated a door to my office/shop and removed a wall in it to accomodate two 30"wide safes.

The drawings are being finalized and we're anxiously awaiting the March 17 county Commissioners meeting---there was a minor water issue that will either be cleared up or we'll relocate to off of Garden of the Gods.
Barring anything unforseen, we'll break ground in April and open doors in Sept.

We're getting the escrow account set up for pre-opening memberships too.
If you can get me the contact information for the newbies, I'll get them on the list.

regards
Greg

Another update from Greg.

We, Whistling Pines Gun Club, will start accepting membership monies at this weekend's gunshow at the Youth Outreach center--checks only currently but soon ( a week or so) on the web site: www.whistlingpinesgunclub.com
Yes, the county commishioners voted 100% in favor. No more delays.

The initiation schedule has changed a bit to encourage more early memberships--the bank would like to see 450--600 paid memberships before 1Apr.

After groundbreaking the early membership discount will start going away...you can check the web site for details.

The projected opening time frame is Sept--Oct, 05.

Drop me a note if you've got any questions or better still, stop by the table at the gunshow (with your checkbooks!)

Hi all,

Wondering how many here on this forum have opted to join this new indoor shooting facility? Seems like the cost is a little on the high side but then on the other hand it is only a little over seven miles from me. What do you all think?

Thanks

Steve
