Red Jacket Range

[Ike]

They do not allow Rapid Fire, I'm not sure about the targets...

Will seems pretty cool, he's offered to let me shoot some of his guns, in a post somewhere on this forum, but I haven't taken him up on it.

I don't shoot there b/c of the no rapid fire rule

-and-

Sometimes bullets ricochet back at you in his lanes, had this happen a few times and I've only shot there a couple times. I know this can happen anywhere, and maybe he's got enough lead on the backdrop now to prevent it...but I'm not down with lead flying back at me.

I shoot at Sherburn, its free...outside, 50 & 100yrd ranges, rapid fire all you want, blow stuff up if you want.

As far as Will goes, he seems grumpy but he also seems like he's a no-nonsense honest, hard working, high quality gunsmith...he's earned the right to be grumpy.

Where is Sherburn?

Thanks

Has anyone been back here lately? Just wondering if they still require a credit card on file and the general mood of the staff.

Just shot there on Sunday. Range has been cleaned up and painted. All target sleds are working properly. Nice people there.

Same rules? (slow fire only, must use their targets, no drawing from holster)

Here is their new website:

I notice in the pictures every shooter is wearing a little apron. Please tell me they don't make you wear an apron while shooting.

no vest have to be worn. This is for a pistol league, different teams compete. Don't know about drawing.

The demographics of the clientele seems to have changed a bit also.

Look like they had BBQ during their grand opening.

ughh, not what you would hope to see at a gun range.

ughh, not what you would hope to see at a gun range.

For real, guy in orange seems to be out of ammo and the other guy has a garden tool instead of a firearm.
For a gun range, this is unacceptable.

never bring a rake to a gunfight?

I vowed not to use the red jacket range anymore. it has been a couple of years, but the last time i went in there was right before hunting season. I wanted to sight in my rifle. It was so dark in there, because the lights had been shot out i guess, I couldn't see the target at 25yds.

on top of that, my target fell down, i went up front an asked the guy at the counter for another, he told me, "tell the other guys not to shoot you in the ass." then he got pissed when i went out on the range with my loaded .45, i told him i am not walking in front of three people i down know with loaded rifles and not be able to shoot back.

that was a waste of 10$ and about 15$ in bullets. i had to resite my rifle at the camp. which pissed off the others who were hunting.

I have shot at Diamond since the change. Nice place, nice folks, just don't go overboard bump firing too much and you're cool.
