    Great, same day as the silencer shoot. Oh well I want to go to a tactical rifle class anyway.

    What's the saying about pistols? "A pistol is what you use to fight your way back to the rifle you foolishly left behind.

    Marlin is correct. This class is Sept of 2007



    Larry is a very big personality in the shooting industry. If you don't know much about him read his bios (link posted above). Space in this class is limited and will fill quickly.

    IMPORTANT INFO, EVERYONE PLEASE READ!!!!!!

    -Range Fee's (non-members) / Membership Cards (PWSA members)


    MEMBERS of the Pueblo West Sportsman Association:

    Please bring your PWSA MEMBERSHIP CARD with you to class. I will have a class roster that everyone will have to sign in on. Due to prior problems I am required to see your NEW / CURRENT PWSA membership card or collect a $25 per day of training range fee from you. If you don't have your PWSA membership card on the first day of class you will be requred to pay the range fee. NO EXCEPTIONS

    NON-MEMBERS of the PWSA:

    If you are not a member of the Pueblo West Sportsman Association range, I have to collect a $25 PER DAY OF TRAINING (2 days = $50, 3 days = $75, etc) RANGE FEE from you on the first day of class. If you have paid for the class vai credit card, the range fee was not charged to your card.

    I have the responsibility of collecting the $25 per *day of training* range fee that I have to give directly to the President and Board of Members of the Pueblo West Sportsman Association.

    The range fee will be collected (in full) at the beginning of class during student sign in. I will only be accepting PERSONAL CHECKS and MONEY ORDERS made out to the Pueblo West Sportsman Association for the range fee. (CASH AND CREDIT CARDS WILL NOT BE ACCEPTED AS PAYMENT FOR THE RANGE FEE)


    -ACCESS TO THE RANGE

    Non-Members of the PWSA please gather at the front gate (in a group) and wait for a PWSA member that is attending the class to let you into the range. DO NOT TRY TO FOLLOW OTHER PWSA MEMBERS THAT ARE NOT PART OF THE CLASS INTO THE RANGE!!! Once inside the gate take the road to the right and go directly to Range #2 (second range from the right). Please do not go to the other ranges un-escorted, PWSA has a strict policy that all non-members must be escorted by a member at all times.

    Remember this is a private range that is kind enough to let us use their facilities for this class. Please respect other members of the range, remember we are guests of the PWSA (if there is a problem please let me know so I can get the problem resolved). The only way I can keep hosting courses at the PWSA is if we have a good working relationship with the membership / board of the range.

    PWSA MEMBERS: Please let students in the front gate and direct them to range #2. If someone would please man the front gate until all our students are in (as we have done it in the past) it would be greatly appriciated.



    -LUNCH / START TIME

    Please bring your lunch both days, we will break for lunch, but there will not be enough time to leave the range to go an get lunch at a fast food resturant.

    We will start class at 8am on all days of training unless otherwise noted, please be on time.

    We will have to pick up all trash and brass at the end of each day of shooting.

    Full auto firining is *not* permitted at the range

    Tracers and armor piercing ammo is *not* permitted at the range



    Thanks for your help,
    Jeff

    Just some food for thought....If you are considering taking a training class in 2007, you may want to start getting ammo NOW!!!

    Many ammo manufacturers are back logged 6+ months on ammo shipments.
