[ARCHIVED THREAD] - New suppressor.... NEED to shoot, but where?

Posted: 3/10/2011 3:24:31 PM EDT

Ok after over a year of waiting I finally got my paperwork back for my can, figures it came back when I'm in VA but I'm going back to CT this weekend to use it. Uhhh where can I go and who is going to be open? I'm hoping highrock will be as another member here has a 300 whisper I was hoping to try out.

If HR is closed then maybe your backyard? I've used mine to test cans before

ETA congrats on the can, I love using mine.

Oh ya I'm not afraid to do that but I want someplace where I can do a longer shot than 20yds.

Go to the over priced blue trails.

Being the weather what it is, HR should be open.

Call the range phone posted on the website.

Pic from last aug when it finally showed up at JoJos, after an 8 month wait on Fisher to send the can to them.

Fisher/Smith Ent suppressor... Took 16 months to get due to manufacturer problem and then CLEO sig which was almost 3 months. I have a trust now.

Edit.... I'll be at JoJos waiting for them to open this Saturday then off to a range that's open, if anyone has subsonic 308 and want to meet up email me or just have some cool guns I don't have a problem letting anyone fire my stuff if they bring ammo or let me shoot theirs.

Do manufacterers warantee the can when you use subsonic ammo?

ETA Nice looking Sage!

Yeah, go to the over priced BTR and help them with their legal defense fund so they don't get closed down permanently. jackass

Ive gone twice, if you go during a weekday 30 bucks for the day is a great price. I just take a couple of vacation hours and have at it.

The shop isn't anything to write home about, but being a public range its nice.

They are designed with subsonic in mind, would be like getting a race car and not racing it. You'll only get the full potential out of a can unless you use subsonics, they won't cycle my M14 but they will sound like a paintball gun.

Looks like a few ranges are going to be open, I'll have to chech some out, which is closest to JoJos? (I'm stuck using my phone so Internet research is annoying).

Wow! I'm not an M-14 fan, but that is some serious hardware.

Hahaha I'll have to give him one of my AKs and an Adidas running suit next time. Not sure if it's weird but everyone who was there was either 20 or 22 with me being the exception of 25. I always get extra funny looks when I go to public ranges, one for having C3 stuff and then another for being some what young and having all that, I don't mind though.

Hey where in VT are you as we go to a buddies place up there in East Wallingford a few times a summer. Can't bring my can though which blows.
