They also said that you can shoot whatever you want as long as it’s legal to own in NY (unlike some other ranges that won’t let you shoot AR’s, etc…)
Their guest policy is 1 guest at a time and you have to RO for them. I don’t know if they’d say anything but by the books you are only supposed to bring one person and only twice per year.
They did warn us about some members that will try to enforce rules that don’t exist. One example is someone trying to tell a member that they couldn’t shoot an AR with a .22 conversion on the indoor range because the guy didn’t think people “needed to own guns like that.” We were told that if something like that happens to report the person to one of the club officers.
I don’t go there much but so far everyone I’ve meet has been cool and I’ve had no problems. I took a defensive pistol class there about a month ago. That was a good time. Dave Jenkins from Rochester personal defense taught it.
I looked at the other local places before I joined. Brooks didn’t have an indoor range and was pretty far away for me. RRC has stupid rules like you can’t load more than 5 rounds at a time and no rapid fire because “it’s a bullseye club”. How a club with “rifle” in the name is a bullseye club is beyond me.

It's been a couple years since "the incident" haha
Who knows now come to think of it, that douche could have been a normal member trying to enforce rules that don't exist, he went and got another guy who worked there and he was the one who asked us to leave. Oh well we had already burned through all our mags which was almost 1000 rounds.
I'd have to shoot there again to decide if I'd join. Sounds like you've had good experience there though.
