correct about the rifle ammo, they dont like steel core there. you pay for rounds at the shotgun range, 25+ birds per round. shotgun rentals are free with this membership and the rounds are discounted. ive been a member for a few years now and have used all of the facilities under my pistol range membership. it has the most benefits compared to the shotgun membership and is the one being offered for 2 for 1

OAK TREE GUN CLUB 2 For 1 BLACK FRIDAY SALE!

Hi,
Thank you to those who were in touch back with me. Many of us want to get this 2 for 1 deal, though, some are not sure if they can make it on Black Friday or not. To those of you who I have communicated with and those who have communicated with me, you have my phone number for the morning of.
I think what we should do is exchange phone numbers before Black Friday and all meet, as to see who will be buying this 2 for 1 deal, and if there is an even number, as opposed to an odd number. This way we can organize it well and get it done, leaving nobody out.
Just a thought and Happy Thanksgiving to all in advance.Comment

I did this last year and I didn't need the 2nd person with me at the time of purchase, as it was to be a Christmas gift (the membership starts running on the date of purchase so he kind of got screwed out of one month, just something to think about if you are planning on waiting until Christmas to give the membership to a second person). I just gave them as much info on him as I had and then he went in after Christmas and finished filling out the paperwork and signed the release.
Anyways, I'd love to do this deal again if you guys need one more.CZ97B 45ACP * CZ75B 9MM * COLT MARK III TROOPER .357 * RUGER SINGLE SIX * BROWNING BUCK MARKComment

Regarding the bi-metal & steel core issue at Oak Tree:
I've been a member there for three years, and until they opened their new rifle range it was never an issue. In fact they rented SKS and AK rifles and REQUIRED that you use their ammo, which was Tula bi-metal. They allowed any ammunition on the rifle range which was only open on Friday evenings, and likewise on Bay #1 (and for pistols on Bay 2 & 3, although of course not on the steel range).
When I last went I wanted to shoot my CZ-82 with Silver Bear, which is a bi-metal jacket. They told me I couldn't, as "anything magnetic is now banned."
I went inside and spoke to Brian about it, and he had all sorts of excuses.
First, that the new rifle range isn't safe for bi-metal as the foliage surrounding it makes it more of a fire hazard. I said, fine, how about Bay 1? He said then that, oh no, people were shooting up the target stands too much. I mentioned that they rented their rifles with Tula ammo, and he said that they had a bunch of it and wanted to sell it, and when they ran out they weren't going to do that anymore. So, I said, it was okay when you were making a profit off of it but now that you see you can make more selling different ammo you're going to take advantage of it, eh?
He also had some excuse about steel cases being a problem for their reloaders, which is horsepucky since a magnet drags all the steel cases out of the bunch easily. He admitted that was true, but that they didn't like to bother. Huh? They are profiting off of the spent brass cases, which is the long and short of it.
I found the variety of excuses disingenuous. I can live with the new rule on the new range. What I can't live with is changing the rules only a month after I'd renewed my membership (at full price, along with my wife's). I told Brian that the reason I went to Oak Tree, rather than Angeles which has a much longer and frankly nicer rifle range, was that they weren't so restrictive. I also told him that I wasn't the only one.
I am debating asking for a refund of my membership, as I am just not happy about their change of policy and their nonsense excuses for it. I'm even less happy that I would be forced to purchase much more expensive ammunition for my AK, SKS, Mosin, CZ, Tokarev, Mauser, etc. etc. etc.
$125 for a membership is a good deal, but you'll pay the difference in ammo prices.Originally posted by CSACANNONEERKeep in mind that you don't have a clue.Comment

Bummer I went to oak tree three times and shot my saiga 7.62x39 with bi metal ammo. I think if I go shooting this weekend I will check out Angeles range. It sucks that I was able to shoot my saiga for .25 to .30 cents a round and now I have to pay double that. At least at Angeles I can shoot longer range.Want to Buy: Ruger PC9 Magazine Buttstock PouchComment
