Ok me and a few people that I shoot with are looking for a piece of property to shoot on or even join a hunt club that will allow us to target shoot. We are all mature adults and our number one thing is safety. Would prefer for it to be within an hour of Fredericksburg are. Please let me know what you have thank you. Would prefer wi I'm also looking for a place to do some plinking outdoors. I'm near Quantico and The Cove is just too far. It's like 2+ hrs each way. Willing to pay, of course. Let me know if you find anything. |

I am neither active or retired and they don't us treat vet's any different than John Doe's - I'd have to be an "associate member". It appears I would need to be sponsored by a regular member, get approved by the board, wait for the next winter solstice comet... I'm just looking for a place to shoot outdoors, and would happily pay 5X what Quantico charges. Please let me know if anyone knows of a place. |

Best way to join is to show up at a work day on Saturday, introduce yourself and be ready to work. That is how I did it several years ago. Show you are a good guy who is willing to work to better the club and you will be a shoo in. |

It would almost be worth the time and $$ to buy a small plot of land in Caroline County or Spotsy. When I lived in Fredericksburg there was nowhere to shoot except a buddy's place in Caroline. There is the Rod and Gun Club, but IIRC the memberships there are outrageous. My BIL is a member at the Izaak Walton Club up there but I've never been.

Instead of buying land it would be easier to lease a piece like a hunt club does. That way if land development forces you out your not stuck. And rod and gun club doesnt allow full auto |

And rod and gun club doesnt allow full auto The trick is to buy unrestricted land and never, ever tell anyone you just want to shoot on it before you buy. After you buy just show-up and shoot. Looks to me like you could find something in Culpeper Co. Lots of hilly land out that way. |
