We have posted the training schedule for August. It can be accessed at
http://www.allenarms.net/classandcompetition.html
Please note that we are offering a Sunday CWP class on the 17th for those unable to make the normal Saturday classes, and split evening courses during the week in two different weeks.
We may add additional offerings when Mark Bilicki returns. We are especially interested in a SC Hunter's Safety Course for new hunters.
Thanks again for your support-

It has been some time since we sent a mailing, so I guess is "high time" for one. We have been open over a month, and the response has been incredible, in every area- range, sales, and instruction. I want to thank everyone of you- now 748 on the newsletter- for your support.
I also want to welcome members who have signed up since our last letter. Thank you for your interest. I hope we don't disappoint you.
The instruction schedule for August should be complete and posted soon. I will let you know when.
Last, I want to announce that we have received our Class III license, and soon intend to have full auto guns to rent out. We will also be able to sell and transfer full auto, suppressors, and short barreled guns as well.
That's when the real fun starts!

Hello to everyone. Great news on the Supreme Court Washington DC Second Ammendment trial! As if anyone who can read and knows any history couldn't understand what it says.
As a reminder, we will be open 1-6 this Sunday, as is our new policy (and remember opening late - 12 noon- on Monday and Tuesday for range maintenance). Also we will be open 9-6 on Friday the Fourth of July. I can't think of a better way to celebrate Independence Day than with a gun in your hand, especially in light of today's court decision, so come on down!

While we wait for our occupancy permit, we welcome all, especially current members, to check out the facilities. We are there 9-6, M-S. We also have phone service now (yeah!). Come on down!

Noise Test
We passed the county noise test. We are good to open.
We now need a "final walk through", a formality, and to receive the Occupancy Permit. We should be legal within a week or less.
I'm looking forward to meeting everyone soon (there are 548 on the newsletter mailing list at this time).
I would like to give special thanks to Sheriff Loftis for supporting us in this effort, and Councilmen Joe Dill and Willis Meadows. It would have been much harder without their support and help. These good folks are up for re-election this year. I hope you all will remember their pro-gun, pro-freedom efforts in the upcoming elections. I sure will.

We are at the point now that we anticipate opening in less than a month. Our target date (no pun) is April 15. The range equipment has been delivered from Las Vegas, the exterior will be painted this weekend, the inside is a bee-hive of activity with ducting, carpenters, plumbers, and electricians. We have posted some photos of the activity on the website, but they are already out of date. I'll try to get some more today.
Speaking of the website, Pam (with Piedmont Designs) has totally reworked the Classes/Training section so you will be able to actually enroll in classes rather than just show us your areas of interest. Included in that upgrade is a calendar, class details, etc. Check it out. We should have May's scheduled offerings ready by the first of April.
In fact, there have been so many changes that we recommend you use the "refresh" button the next time you use the site. Sometimes a computer will access a used version and not the new one. Mine did.
Now for the big news. We are pleased to announce that we are offering memberships at this time, as many have been asking. Prices will be the pre-introduction special as displayed on the web site, $150 single. $175 family. All the offered discounts will be honored. Please see the site for full details and instructions. There will be a $25 increase once we open. Your membership will not start until you use your first session, so you will get a full year of use no matter what.
Thanks for your patience with us. We look forward to meeting you in person.
Frank Allen And Staff.
