Hi,

Just signed up a couple weeks ago and I figured I should post something at least. I'm just getting back into shooting after 5 years of not having room for a safe, and I just moved away from my hometown so I need to find new places to shoot.

Are there any steel challenge competitions that take place around here? I want to get into competing, but I don't have the gear or practice for action shooting.

Howdy.

You go to the main page and look up one from the forum i linked. It's all about places to shoot. Also the advance search function up top will help you as well

Where's your "hometown" here in CO?

Welcome, join the fray.


Come out to CRC for IDPA, starts up again in March. Don't worry about gear. Bring decent carry holster and 3 mags. You be GTG.

CRC also has Steel Challenge. There are many indoor ranges that host bowling pin shoots that require zero equipment, but all the ones I know about are in the metro area.

CRC Steel Challenge is 3rd Saturday and IDPA is 4th Saturday of each month.

Welcome from your neighbor in Erie! You've found a great group of people (if you ignore the fact I'm one of them).

Thanks for the link, somehow I missed that.

I'm originally from Ft. Collins, but it got too big and I worked in N. Denver so we moved down here. We like it so far. More like Fort Collins used to be when we were growing up, now it's Boulder Jr.

Nice range just outside of longmont is Trigger time.

Also the LPD/BCSO range has some days open to the public.

Yeah, I know a guy in town who loves Trigger Time. That place is expensive, though. I should do the orientation and everything for the LPD range. There's talk of a range opening in the old quarry east of Lyons, but I would be surprised if the NIMBYs don't shut it down.

My range buddy still lives in Fort Collins so I'm considering joining either Front Range Gun Club or Liberty Firearms Institute so we've got a halfway point. That is, after I finish my pre-paid range sessions at Shooters Supply in Fort Collins. Definitely not as nice as a lot of ranges, but five prepaid range sessions is five prepaid range sessions, and they didn't mind when we accidentally went over our hour about 20 minutes on a quiet day.

Welcome.

I totally agree with too big. I grew up in Fort Collins. I can?t wait to get out. As soon as my son is 18 and out of high school.
The girlfriend and I both go to front range gun club. Great place and never too crowded to shoot

I wonder if Front Range Gun Club would give a couple membership to heterosexual life partner range buddies [ROFL2]
