Would love to join one of the long ranges around Lincoln, Any suggestions? the NE HTF is pretty quiet. for long range, i would suggest Lincoln Izaak Walton, near Bennett or Eastern Nebraska Gun Club at Louisville or maybe the range near Weeping Water. I have shot at the Lincoln Ikes and ENGC, but not Weeping Water. any of them would be just fine i suppose. since you're new, have you joined the Nebraska Firearms Owners Association (NFOA)? we are a 100% free, 100% volunteer based gun right group. we are on Facebook, Twitter and MeWe. we also have our own forum where lot of Legislature bills are talked about during the session. nebraskafirearms.org |

What's up Nebraskans!
I stumbled into this section and thought I would chime in. I'm a born and raised Nebraskan who lived in and around McCook for most of my life. Recently moved to Grand Island for work but McCook will always be home for me. Any others from around McCook? My family had a car dealership in town for many years. Here's a very armature cell phone picture of my 1911 because why not.

For ranges, a good one ENGC near Louisville. It's members only, but pretty good. There's a slew of them in/near Omaha.... Like 88Tactical, Marksman, Omaha gun club, etc. Also, Please join the Nebraska Firearms Owners Association (NFOA). It's 100% free and volunteer run. |

My name is Johnathan and I just moved from the Pacific Northwest a little over 11 months ago. Wasn really into firearms until I moved here, but I am enjoying learning about all the different variants. Currently, have a CZ-P10 (No Mods, yet) and just built my first AR-15 (Anderson) I am ashamed to say this, but I still haven't fired the AR-15 yet since the weather hasn't been cooperating with me, so I would openly welcome any ranges in Omaha that I could go to, to fire it off for the first time. Also, I am always up to meeting new people since I am new to the area, so please feel free to send me invites to meetups. Nice meeting everyone, and this looks like a great place to chat. |

Have you heard about the Nebraska Firearm Owners Association (NFOA)? Please join! The Unicam just started a new session. We can use all the help we can get! There's several threads in the NE HTF about Omaha ranges. All ranges will require soft tip ammo for rifles. I don't think we've ever really done a hometown shooting. Not enough people or time. I've met several arfcommers and they usually don't stink too bad. |

So David Hineline here South Sioux City, NE back after finding out Brownells bought the forum, I was M16/NFA moderator here for about 6 yrs along with Tony K. Got to a point I could not get along with site owners and got das boot. I will try and get the NE forum going more but no way to get as involved in the site as I used to be. I help run USPSA matches in Sioux City, IA, at hawkeygunclub.com and shoot Tues. Night IDPA at Thunder Alley in Lincoln, NE if I am in town for work. Not a FFL license holder any longer. |
