Hi, my name is Rick and I'm a gun-aholic....
 Live in rural N.W. Douglas county and am an avid gun show goer, although I'm hitting a bit fewer with gas prices the way they are now. |

I can't find any info on this range. How far out does the rifle section go? |

Seasons Choice is an indoor range with 25 yard max. lane for high power. Saturday, when I went there to function check 2 new lowers and an upper, the target transport was busted, so I had to call a cease fire every time I wanted to check or change a target. Thankfully the place cleared out for a while and I was able to get zeroed in much faster. I think the noise from my Middy drove them out |

Dale from Wilber here (about 40 miles SW of Lincoln, Saline County). Don't get to shoot very often, I go to my Dad's farm or Brother in-law's place to shoot outdoors.
Currently have an M1 Garand, NEF single shot .223, Glock 17, a couple 22 pistols and a 10/22. Also an old Browning A5 that I don't shoot-unless I can find some 2 9/16" 12 gauge shells. Anybody got some? Also a NEF single shot .17 HMR that I am considering selling. Don't get to shoot too often, and when I do it's usually the M1,G17,223 and/or the 22s. |

Adam from Grand Island. I have always been a gun nut but over the past few years I have been trying to expand my knowledge of firearms in the pursuit of becoming a gunsmith. I hope to open a shop in the G.I. area sometime within the next year.

Roger from Hastings.
If its got fur or feathers I'll trap it or hunt in down. I'm on the Board at Four Rivers Sportsmens Club. 285 yrds outdoor range lighted for night shooting, 50 yrd indoor heated range for when it's cold and trap and skeet range. I'll be working security at the Hastings Gun show in March. Don't bang on the doors in the middle of the night or you'll meet up with me and my bushmaster |

Roger and the boys put on the best gun show in Nebraska. They have kicked me out after the dealer meeting more than once. If anyone wants to set up there, call Jim Price and reserve a table now. Roger could help with his number, or check out www.NebraskaGunShows.com, or just click on this link:

If any of you make it to Hastings for the show, stop by my table in the north room, on the west wall, just south of the bathroom hallway, with the American flags table cover. Looks like I will have a MSAR STG556, benelli M3, benelli nova, Remington 31, some Leupold scopes, some Mission Knives, and who knows what else by showtime. I will make a little sign that says "AR15.com members check in."
Rob (Exeter) from Exeter Arms will be there too, selling some NFA items and surely have some great deals on Sigs, Hks and FN products. If anyone is looking for silencers or full auto toys, Rob is the man to see. |

HUGE plus eleven for Rob @ Exeter guys, he's awesome!
Rob--I haven't forgotten about you! I hung by your table for a little while at the last Fremont show but you had so many people running up to talk to you I figured I'd just wait. Yours was definitely one of the better setups there.  Will you be at the next Fremont show, May 17-18? My RNLTD for my Ft. Mead PCS got pushed back into July so I'll probably be seeing you about a .308 can during that show. I've got my trust all set up and ready to go (M92 SBR will be the first addition) so that'll make things even easier. Thanks for all the help you've given me thus far, and looking forward to seeing you in May to get that suppressor taken care of! --Mark G. @ Offutt |

I've just had my first dealings with Exeter Arms last week and I'm very impressed. I sent off an e-mail with some questions pretty late at night and received prompt replies. What started out as an inventory question ended up as a suppressor order and I had my ATF Forms and fingerprint cards in my mailbox a couple days later.
I'll get them sent in this week and with the turnaround times on Form 4's recently, hopefully I'll have my new toy in about a month! If the rest of the process goes as smoothly as it has so far, Rob will definitely be getting more business from me (as money allows). |

Hey Guys, I'm Ryan form Hastings.
Thought it would be fitting to have my first post in the Hometown forum. I'm a machinist by trade, do wood working for fun, golf, hunt, and shoot my dreaded EBR!!! I've been lurking around this site for a couple years and finally decided sign up. Look forward to mabye runnin' into a few of you at the gun show in Hastings this Sunday. Anyway, just wanted to say Hi. |

TJ from La Vista here.
Between the FD and work I don't have much time to shoot anymore. I only have a Beretta 92FS now so I could really shoot anywhere. Lets get something going! |

Stash from Omaha. Hunt anything and everything in NE when I get the chance. I'm getting commissioned in the Marines on May 7th so I won't be around much to shoot/go to shows over the next four years
 .....but I think I'll be doing plenty of shooting at The Basic School!!Bought almost all of my guns from Tommy at Sol's downtown. Great guy, great pawn shop. |

Hi Joe and Heather, Try Eastern Nebraska Gun Club (ENGC). It's a nice place near Ashland/South Bend/Louisville. HTH |

Bob from Lincoln, originally from Plattsmouth.
I do most of my shooting out at Branched Oak Lake, there's a little plot of land that's about 25 or 30 yards. I'd like to go out to Hamburg Bend with you guys sometime. Send me a message and we'll set up a date. I've been itching to try my AR out past 25 yards but couldn't find a place I didn't have to pay an outrageous membership fee to use. |
