BlueCore Shooting Center - Lakewood

[Byte Stryke]

Has anybody visited this place since it opened last Thursday?

nope... won't go either.

Just saw this bit too -

• Firearms being transported to and from the facility must be secured inside a case
or holster (if holstered, your firearm needs to be clear and safe prior to entering.
• Loaded firearms are not allowed anywhere on the premises except inside the
shooting range and within the designated shooting areas (Exceptions for Law
Enforcement only).

So no going in to look at retail stuff with a CCW.

I dont waive my rights to go shopping.

[Hannu]

Are you guys kidding ? You can not go into shooting range without unloading you carry piece ?? Is there a huge "gun-free zone" sign on the front door

[Irving]

I guess you'll never do any competition shooting either then.

My thoughts exactly. Is it really that big of a deal? The range I worked at didn't allow any loaded guns (or for that matter one with a closed action) in the lobby unless you were a uniformed, on duty police officer. Never heard a single complaint.

[Irving]

I don't like that rule either, and probably wouldn't go there, but I'm not going to go so far as to say that you are surrendering your rights; because you're not.

So Silver Bullet was packed today and there was an hour or more wait. I thought it was a good opportunity to check out Blue Core, so I drove down there. CLOSED! I figured they would be open on Sundays? Doesn't really say anywhere on their doors or windows that I could find.

Thought I give them a chance to show me around the range and ask questions, might have even bought some ammo and shot there, but I guess it wasn't meant to be.

I also have to note, that if I must buy a box of ammo at whatever their retail price is, and 4 shooters on the range if I take the whole family, I'm looking at dropping $150 for a trip to the range. With my own ammo, that price drops significantly.

Hopefully they can get on here and offer up some New Customer discounts or something? (hint hint)

O'well, back to Silver Bullet, which turned out to be a great time.

Brought my wife to Silver Bullet yesterday where she shot for the first time ever (Armscor M1600 .22LR). They had said about an hour and half wait but I don't think we had to wait any more than 20 minutes. We had fun with our own targets and ammo and their ventilation seems better than the last time I was there.

Or we approach them as members of "COLORADO AR-15 SHOOTERS" and see if they can give us a members discount card or something??
What do you think Marlin??

I'm not trying to run them out of business, just trying to get a reasonable price or perk to try out their range. Grand Opening type of thing?

When it was Green Mountain they made me give up my concealed carry gun to go into the rifle range. Didn't make any since to me, but it was their property.
