I usually go to Lytle Creek, but I guess I can make a switch.:D By the looks of it at the website, its a pretty decent range. Got anymore info on it?

Not a whole lot of info.
It's covered with benches and goes out to 200yds.
$15 a person and targets are .50 each stands included.
Last time i went there was a steel 200yd target untill i accidentally knocked it off with my garand.:o Hopefully they have put it back up with no serious damage.
I've seen some prerrt nice firearms out there including a 1919 belt fed semi auto.:D

$50 a year, $5 shooting a day. 200m range with a gong, and I usually set them up before we start shooting, there's actually two of them. Great place to shoot with a good rangemaster with common sense and good attitude. He's not there to judge your weapon, only your conduct. You get outta line there, everyone will be in your azz like a bicycle without a seat.

Skeet and trap range, members, $4 a round. Lots of good shooters and knowledgable people out there, mostly older guys with lots of wisdom to share. Most on the S & T range are not into rifles and pistols so, they really never even see some the crazy stuff we bring there LOL.

I bring my Hakims, Yugo Zastavas, Mausers, and Mosins. Everybody loves to shoot my Hakims, especially me. They're just extremely loud and throw brass like crazy so being next to me is not wise LOL.


Overall, a very pleasant day every time I've gone, and nice thing is, I've never been swept with a live weapon, at least that I saw LOL.


Have a great Kenpo day

OLL/Saigas put you in a very risky position. An leo might prank you, saying "THIS IS ILLEGAL... YOUR UNDER ARREST, JUST KIDDING HAHAHA I GO TO CALGUNS TOO"

There are several range reports on saigas online.

I took my saigas to the range last wednesday during correctional officer training... everything went fine, a couple asked if it was legal, and about prices, etc. One officer even asked to shoot it :) The aim was dead on, 3 bullets in the red at 100 yards (scoped). My next range report will be after I install the new POSP, internal recoil buffer and AK74 brake :D
