PA- Wicen's Shooting Range Support Day

Jamie Young · March 5th, 2008, 12:10 AM

There was a shooting mishap at a local club and we're organizing a support day at the range because this range has had problems with anti-gun groups in the region. I know the NRA has been directly involved with this, but we need more people to come out and support the club. We're hoping to have atleast 100 people there.

Wicen's Shooting Range Support Day

Place: Wicen's Shooting Range
(The Farm)
3179 Mozart RoadFurlong, PA 18925
215-598-3534
New Page 1

Date: Sunday-April 13th Wicen's Shooting Range.

Time: 10am-4pm

Cost: $15

This shoot will be an official Rally Point shoot and specifically to support Wicen's Shooting Range.

Please read the range rules before attending the shoot. They are clearly posted on ttp://www.wicenshootingrange.com/

IMPORTANT INFORMATION: They require photo identification for each adult signing in to use the range. If you do not have photo identification, you will not be allowed on the firing line.

Any local business that wants to donate something as a door prize on April 13th should contact me via PM at TRP.org. or email me at (email) jyoung9656-at-verizon.net

Joe Wicen gave me permission to allow food to be cooked off the firing line, but I ask that people pack their own lunches/food for this because trying to accomodate an unknown turn out will be difficult. If you plan on cooking food, please contact me and try an co-ordinate that for your group.

Please come with the a helpful attitude. We want to create a positive atmosphere in light of the situation.

All of the details about the stray bullet incendent at Wicen's are still being compiled, but we need to show support for the range.

Spread the word and get off the computer and come out on April 13th.

Please repost this on any gun board that is willing to support Joe Wicen's range. People from Delaware, New Jersey and Pennsylvania will be in attendance so please spread the word with 2nd Amendment groups in those States. I would appreciate it if people would post here or email me about attending the shoot so that I don't have to read through too many gun boards to get an accurate head count.

Here are two threads running on TRP and PAFOA.org

Jamie - I split up your email addy - just to try and safeguard you from more spam ... not difficult for folks to ''reconstruct'' if they need to contact you.

I wish to heck I could come out but - bottom line is it's just too far these days. I do hope tho you get some good support from eastern folks. I had not heard about the "stray bullet" deal.

Here's the news story that hit Stray Bullets From Shooting Range Fly Into Home - News - MSNBC.com

It was from a Mosin (has not been proven but all the facts say it probable was the Mosin) and the news announces that it's an evil NATO round.

Crap - that sorta incident and press is far from useful

We are postponing the support day for Wicen's Shooting range on April 13th

Due to the circumstances surrounding the events at Wicen's, Joe told me that he has had to enact new ranges rules immediately. Since we were not able to inform people ahead of time of the new range fees, and trying to qualify a large group of people will probable restrict range time for many of us.

We are going to postpone the date for a few weeks. I apologize for not letting you guys know about this sooner, but I just found out about this yesterday.

The new range fee rules are posted on the homepage New Page 1

I'll be in touch with everyone in the near future.
