Colorado Firearms Festival this weekend--Centennial Gun Club

[Great-Kazoo]

Hate is a strong word, unless we're talking about Dianne Feinstein. What did they do to cause said hate?

Since you're a new[er] member. Let me introduce you to The Advanced Search where you can browse older topics, some dormant, others CLOSED / LOCKED for good reason.

Oh, that's not good. In fact, I would go so far as to say that's actually very bad...

I think that you will be able to find that you can purchase items elsewhere for less money. If you have firearms-related questions, you have an entire forum of people to ask.

That doesn't mean you can't enjoy the Firearms Festival, the gun range, and classes they have at Centennial Gun Club...it's just a situation of "buyer beware."

Apparently, according to Monky, that makes me an idiot or something.

Surprised someone as dumb as you even picked up on that!

Well.....um......uh.........wait......what? OK so I'm another idiot. Never have nor never will buy a firearm there as the prices are stupid high. I have however bought ammo and a few small items when they've been on sale. I'm a member because I feel it's the best indoor range around and it's 10 minutes from my home. I've yet to have a negative range experience-if I do I guarantee I won't be quiet about it.

I wouldn't take a class there for a few reasons-cost is a big one and the less than impressive credentials and tone of some of the instructors. I've had the good fortune in life to have had the opportunity to attend Gunsite (1978 the first time) and Thunder Ranch (Texas) so I like to think I've been exposed to some good instruction.

The festival is good for an hour or so of browsing the stuff offered by the vendors, generally just being a lookie loo. Hell I'd accept a free gun from just about any store in the metro area.

I am going because a friend of mine in the neighborhood wants me to go, but I will not buy anything while there. This is due to the fact they would not take back an out of spec lower they sold me claiming it was mil spec. The owner and the clowns working there are a bunch of jackasses in my opinion. I want even buy a soda from these fuckers... Fuck Centennial Gun Club!!!

I have no experience with CGC. Just out of curiosity, what are the varying opinions?

So, new guy, there's a few of the varying opinions...hence my disclaimer. Plus, noting the ad came from wilson combat, not CGC (which is walking distance from my house)

I've only ever bought Fireclean there, as they're the only local store that has it. (Of course, now i just order it online for half the cost....)

Ive been there once. Haven't been back since. It was just central for the group of us that wanted to shoot some rounds. The range officer made it a point to laugh at all the steel case ammo we had, called his buddy on the walkie talkie to share in his laughter. Add that on top of them making us keep all guns next to him and have him switch out the guns for us when we wanted to shoot something different and it's not a place I opt to go to.

However, this does sound like a fun event.
