Just signed up to the forums today and wanted to say hello to everyone.

I've been a photographer for about 12 years now and these last few weeks I thought hard and heavy about changing hobbies. So yesterday I got myself a RRA LAR-8. Now I just got to find a place to shoot close to Montevallo. My girlfriends grandma owns 26 acres here and I shot it once, but grandma called like 5 seconds later and said "NO NO".

But yea, other than that "How's everyone doing?"  and look forward to chatting with you all.

The WMA range in Helena is only 20 minutes from Motown, but you'll need a vehicle that can handle rough roads.  Also, be sure that all non-CCW firearms are unloaded or you will get a ticket from the "biologist" (aka game warden).



To get there from Montevallo (downtown):




1. North on 119

2. Left on 15 north

3. Left on 22 west

4. Right on 17 north

5. Left on 91 north in Helena beside Publix




There should be a sign pointing to the right off the dirt road that tells you how to get to the range.

Appreciate the directions. Isn't that one closed for now? I've seen on several Facebook groups they are cutting timber there and have it closed for now to the public, except for a few people that "KNOWS" someone can shoot down there right now.

Can't you shoot it at Hoover Tactical?

If you don't want to do the indoor thing, Shepard's Branch Shooters Complex in Talladega Co, a little more than a hour away.

Guess everyone's opinion varies. Hoover Tactical isn't really my type of place. $18, they keep all brass, get mad if u share a lane, even if it's helping your own son shoot a gun, plus the sales people are kind of dicks.
