Year long membership at shooting range . . .

Shooters:
So the local shooting range had a deal. Buy a year long membership and get a "free" 9mm hi-point as part of the deal. Yes, I know about Hi-point. Owned one for a couple of years. Did have to send it in for repair to get the FTE fixed, but it ran really well after that. If I sell the hi-point for even $150 then it's year membership for only $125. Not a bad deal. Took them up on the offer and plan to shoot on a regular basis about twice a week. Hope to improve my pistol skills a good deal. This retirement thing is just getting better and better.

Pocahontas Illlinois . . .

The range is called Ramparts Range. They have a web site. They are located in Pocahontas IL. Small but nice selection of guns and ammo. Some accessories and reloading stuff. Knowledgeable and courteous staff. Great place.

I picked up the Hi-point c9 today. I've owned one before. This one ran just fine. Plan to sell it.

Good for you Prof Young. Stay interested in stuff and keep posting.

I've got a relative (female) that always tells me about all the terrible things that happen to people (always men) that retire. Glad yours is working out.
 
Thanks Dale!

Dale:
Thanks for the encouragement. I spent most of my adult life as a teacher of college theatre. It rarely felt like work. Over the last 15 years, hunting, shooting and reloading have become my main avocation and I plan to do a lot more of all three now that I'm retired. Plus have a "gang" of grand kids that need to learn how to hunt and shoot etc. Life is good.

Live well, be safe
