This seems like the right place for this issue: http://www.garlandcitizenforum.org/forums/showthread.php?t=505The above linke will take you to a discussion thread on the Garland Citizens' Forum pertaining to a review ordered by Councilman Douglas Athas of the continued operation of the Garland Public Shooting Range. The councilman cites reports that some gun range user was "shooting at crows in trees with residences on the other side" & possible "lead contamination" issues as the reasons for the review. While on the surface these seem like reasonable motives for at least an investigative review (even if the lead constamination issue is already known to be nonsense), his post in the thread leads me to believe that he's not being completely honest with regard to his stated reasons for the review. Discuss. Then, if you're concerned enough about the issue, act.

Hey everyone, a new range opened North East of Blue Ridge called Top Gun Shooting Club. (sorry pic size is so big). Haven't been there yet but glad we finally have somewhere to shoot over 100 yards!

I joined this forum just to post this. From my post on another forum... Top Gun Shooting Club 500 yd range opened north of McKinney. Website is not up yet. Spread the word! If you know LEOs, Clubs, Iron Sights, 1800s rifles, Steel Target shooters and anyone else... this is the closest 500 yard range to DFW area. ===== 527 P R 462 Leonard, TX 75452 (23 miles from McKinney). 214-799-3357 Google map link and GPS coordinates below. ===== open Thurs, Fri and Sat 9am to Dark open Sun 1pm to Dark ===== I went out on Friday, Oct 8th, the day after it opened. 100, 200, 300, 400 and 500. It is great! New members need to hit 8" steel plate at 200 before you can go to 300 and then hit 8" steel to go to 400 out to 500. FMJ allowed! No steel core or tracers. Again, FMJ allowed! Iron Sights allowed (Terry, the owner loves 1800s rifles and iron sights)> Largest rifle they will allow is a .416 mag Currently is rifle only. Owner wants to go with pistol and cowboy action shooting (something he does) but needs to plow current revenue back into the range. ===== $20 a trip with no membership and $15 a trip with a membership which is $40 a year ============= 33.375642,-96.325099 http://maps.google.com/maps?f=d&sour....31929&z=12 ===== On the way you can stop at new CTD location 380 and 75 in McKinney http://cheaperthandirt.com/blog/?p=34782058 West University Drive McKinney, TX 469 952 6200 ===== Everyone has said that the area north of Dallas needs another range and you have that range NOW! Again, I have heard and made comments that the area north of Dallas needs another outdoor range and now you have it! Go and shoot there! Before anyone complains that it is too far... realistically, this is as close as a new range is going to get! Is in Fannin County (not Collin) and allows FMJ and goes to 500. No matter where it was built someone will complain that it is too far but dont do it here A guy who loves shooting built a big range on his property next to his house and wants to build cowboy shooting and bays and a buncha stuff once money comes in. Something that we have wished for has come true. Lets go enjoy it. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v285/emailpwstuff/TopShotGunRangeTexas.jpg

It is in all of our best interests that this range does well. Having a place to shoot over 100 yards is great thing, we can set our DOPE and make ourselves better marksmen in the field. I am telling anyone that will listen about this new range.

Just went out there today and you couldn't ask for a nicer bunch of people. The range is in the early stages but its run very well, and honestly everyone there was very nice. As the owner said, everyone he has met since opening the range he would be happy to go hunting with. I really like that you need to qualify at 200 before you can shoot 300 and every hundred yards after that, this rule kind of keeps the people that can't shoot and may be on the less safe side away which is nice.

$20 a trip with no membership and $15 a trip with a membership which is $40 a year
FYI its 100.00/yr according to their website which is now up You have to pay fees on top of that $100 IRRC. Membership is 100.00 for the year. The shooting fee for non members is 20.00 per visit. You do not have to join, you may just shoot as a visitor.
If you are a member it will be 15.00 per visit.
At this time we are cash only.I've been shooting here, the people were very nice. I'm hoping to go back out, and see if I can do some prone shooting. I did not get a chance to ask last time I went out.
