Hey sleepy, how often do you shoot at Wealthwood?
My cabin is about a mile from that place....the 300 yard range is nice but the "1 shot every 5 seconds = rapid fire" mentality gets a little old. If they want to see rapid fire, I'll bring up iNuhBaDNayburhood.....he'll show 'em rapid fire. |

jem
Can you keep me posted on openings? I'd be happy just to get on the waiting list. DA We can cure that with a little brainstorming, and no 3" mags. |

friends (especially female!) are always welcome.. have plenty of AR's so all can enjoy.. small contrib $'s for ammo would be sufficient.
MN shoot would be nice  .. great to see the number of posts to this thread.. let's arrange a get-together...I passed this thread on to "Westy".. he accompanied me to BRC'02.. from the SE Metro burbs.. waiting for him to check in. who else is in the Rochester area???.. sound off! Looking forward to meeting the MN members! Happy & Safe Holidays to All!! Bravo5-2 |

Lurch,
I shoot at Wealthwood about one to two times a month. My folks live about 15 min from there (Deerwood). I spend just about every weekend up in that neck of the woods. The only time the wife & kids don't venture up there is when work is too buisy. I hope to go shootin' there this weekend. I'm praying for snow at this point... Sleepy717 |

Hi all Minnesotans !
I live in Lakeville, make the trip daily to Waseca for work and would be interested in any get-togethers. I usually shoot at the Sportsman Club in Waseca. (Outdoor range). |

Bravo5-2.. I belong to the Southern MN Sportsman's Club (south of Roch). It's only about 10 minutes from where I live, but it kinda sucks in some ways so I'm looking for a new place. Thinking about joining the Pine Island club that has the little range along Hwy 52. How's the Zumbro range? I need someplace where I can shoot handgun at 3, 7, 15 and 25 yards. At the place I go now they bitch if you shoot anything other than 25 or 50 yards, sitting at a bench...
edited to add... Do you have any good ffl's in your area? I'm looking for one to do a couple transfers. |

Lab_Rat;
I live pretty close to PI range.. only reason I didn't join was no long range.. Zumbro has 200yds.. pretty good range.. several stations.. they were planning a roof over bench area this past year.. don't know if they completed or not.. have not been out for long time.. usually shoot at my cabin in north-MN. If we get some decent weather, I could meet you and take you up to Zumbrota range for a shoot.. if I recall membership is $25/yr + a few buck for gate key(?) regarding txfr FFL's, check AuctionArms for list.. thought I saw a few in area cities.

Well, I better check in. I unfortunately don't get here nearly enough, and get to shoot even less.
Oh, I'm in Stillwater  |

I'm not sure I'll be around town on the 28th. I may be "up nort" for the weekend and my folks, in which case, I'll be going to Wealthwood. By the way, where is Armored Fire loacted? What kind of facility is it and what do the allow people to shoot?
Thank you, Sleepy717 |

The shows there are kind of on the small side, I think there in the Henn. Tech. College. I've come to skip the show, not much there I buy, (old stuff). You missed a huge weapon show in St. Paul last week-end!!! The DPMS guys had smoking deals on there lowers and Aimpoints. Theres another BIG show coming to: Minneapolis Convention Center Feb. 22-23 2003 & March 22-23 State Fair grounds. |

Well I found out the friend that suggested we go today has the day off and will probably be there in the early afternoon. However his brother and another friend might possibly go with me in the evening.
EDIT: sorry guys not going today, gotta go dumpster dive at someone's work, they are throwing away workbenches! I will probably go to AF to buy some of the british 30s they had but not to shoot. I'm still on for saturday. |

Sleepy - is Wealthwood open in the winter?
I'm going up to Mille Lacs next weekend with a couple of new toys to work over. Let me know if you're going to be up there - I'll buy you a beer at the Goose. Lurch |
