New range in Modesto

[LovingTheYear1911]

That's good news. Anybody know if they allow rifles as well?

Alquist is supposed to be moving in a couple months.

Good to hear I no longer have to drive to Ripon to shoot indoors on a rainy day.

Cool! Elite Arms (in Manteca) opened less than 1 year ago, Alquist Arms (in Turlock) is expanding, Barnwood Arms (in Ripon) just remodeled their range and is doing some more remodeling, and now a new range in Modesto?! It's a great time to be a gun enthusiast!

Great phone number.... I wonder who has 209 565 guns....

[Kelster1574]

Tried the number a couple times.....fax machine every time. I will keep trying. I am sure they are busy trying to get everything ready for there opening.

Does anyone know when the range will open?

[rickster1269]

Opening is November 15. I know the owner personally. www.californiashootingsports.com Let him know Calguns sent you.

EDIT I was just informed opening will be postponed until the week of November 19.

Awesome, membership sounds like a good deal

So now i have a question. If im under 21 but over 18 can i rent a pistol from them and shoot at the range?

their website lists the telephone number as 209-840-9557, not the number mentioned earlier in the thread.

their website also says annual membership is $275 for an individual. an additional $100 adds one co-residing person to the membership. you can lock in a pre-opening rate of $200 if you sign up now. i believe that barnwood's annual membership is $150 for an individual and $200 for a family of four. so says barnwood's website.

i'm looking forward to the opening. there is no way they will be open in november. i hope that they can build quicker than barnwood did. barnwood's new range took a few months longer than initial estimates.

they have a large sign up already.

I received an email back from them yesterday. Sound like cool people, going to go down and take a tour next week....unless something happens I am pretty sure I am going to sign up...$200 and the list of items / services it comes with is a no brainer.

$200 would be a good deal, if I went to a pistol range once a month or more.
I can see myself in there 4-5 times a year, if I figure out the times that aren't crowded.

I was thinking the same thing. I figure at $20 a visit that if I go once a month it will get it down to under $17...plus they give you 6 free passes for friends (thats $120 value) not to mention free dros (not that I need another handgun...lol) and a couple other benefits. Plus I am off on Mondays and Tuesdays.....so as long as there open one of those days I am good. There location is also better for me than Barnwood...

It's nice to see a new range in town, I emailed them about the membership and awaiting their response.
