I think that would probably be Marksman, though it's not really where the Mall is.

Any of you LGC folks want to get up for a weekend meet sometime soon?

Finally made it to the range today to try the FEG .32

It shoots just a tad high and right, but after compensating for that, I was able to group my shots fairly well.

I ran about 100 rounds through it. (funds are tight, so I haven't been able to stock up)
50 rounds were S&B FMJ, all fired perfectly.
The other 50 rounds were Fiocchi JHP, also fired perfectly.

After getting a feel for the gun, I ended up being able to put a group of 5 in the X from around 15 yards. (not bad for my first time with a handgun)

I'll try to post pics of my targets at some point.

I also got to meet Rmac58, he was at Liberty Firearms when I dropped in this afternoon.

All in all, I had a good day, and I can't wait to get some more ammo and head back over to the range again.

I enjoyed chatting with you myself, and the folks at Liberty, they seem to be good people.
Offer still stands, if you'd care to shoot at Blackcreek.

I think y'all are referring to Bob's Gun Shop off Granby?

I somehow missed this thread.. oh well. I'm near Lynchburg. Contemplating looking in to a small business (ie: shooting range). Izaac Walton is pretty expensive and the one in Bedford requires you to be in two matches each year on top of the $50 fee. I can't commit to that.

Anyhoo
