Newbie  in Tempe. Seems like a great forum with great people. So, any ideas on where and who to shoot with before I develop bad habits?

Thanks

Welcome.  You have a few options on the East Side for shooting.  There are good people here, keep checking back.  What kinds of weapons do you shoot, for one, would be a good start.

Downtown Tempe. 30 year old male. Shot with the ROTC in high school. Haven't really shot anything since. I have and want to become more proficient with my AR, P226, and Remington 870.

StealthyBlagga and have him get you hooked up for the next intro to 3-gun at Rio Salado, my home club (...and the best damn club in the valley.)

Welcome! I'm near the Tempe/Chandler border. Best shooting range is Rio Salado at Usery, but Caswells is also nearby if you're the indoor type, and Scottsdale Gun Club is cool also.

Just show up.  If you check the schedule for Rio, next 3gun match is this weekend on Saturday at 7am.  Ask about when the new shooter meeting is.  I think it is earlier than stated here and you'll get the info.  Bring a shotshell bag if you can but you can also ask guys if they will let you borrow their gear (most will).  Pistol work would be better for Tuesday night steel.  We don't do a lot of pistol work in the monthly matches which is kind of a bummer.

Something as simple as this

www.maxpedition.com/store/pc/ROLLYPOLY®-MM-Folding-Dump-Pouch-7p228.htm

Or a
www.amazon.com/BlackHawk-Blackhawk-Shotgun-Bandoleer/dp/B001QGK1CO


You can pick these kind of things in the Walmart gun section for under 10 bucks, or just wear pants with a lot of pockets. You'll need to carry out 20-25 or so rounds total since  your gun can hold some.

Dont feel the need to buy something until you see what others are running.
