Sounds like they're the same price they have been for a while. I got mine at the local shop in rochester for $155. The one I got was a Sabre Defense Industries lower.

edit: since it's a gun thread here's some more toys. Missing a Browning Hi-Power practical in 9mm. Got that after I took the picture.

Haven't taken any acutal pics of mine, but here' some stock photos

I picked up a mossberg 500 tactical 6-shot. All that I've added is a fiber optic red front sight. I will probably add the upper heat shield as well.

Also picked up a Kel-Tek Sub 2000 .40. It's a pretty sweet rifle. Haven't had a chance to fire either yet, but I'll prob join the local range and go shooting whenever I can.

I was thinking of joining Rochester Brooks because of what Carter said about GCL, but I'll let him answer why if he wants...

I need to talk to you, so hop on aim sometime heh I want to start building an AR.

It's been awhile since I shot at the GCL but the last time I shot rifle there I got a warning for "rapid fire" shooting and then excused off the range when myself and two friends that were visiting me from Ft. Bragg argued with the guy about what realistically defines rapid fire shooting. It left a bad taste in my mouth.

That said I have taken both the basic and advanced NRA pistol courses there and enjoyed both, the advanced course had some cool scenarios like shooting while moving and shooting from cover, not too in depth but a nice change from shooting modified weaver all day.

I just joined last winter and had my orientation/qualification there in January. In the orientation they did cover “rapid fire” on the ranges. Their policy is that you can fire as fast as you want as long as you are hitting the target. If you aren’t hitting the target you need to slow down. 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.

Ah, I wonder if you could take me as a guest sometime, so I could check it out

[darkvibe]

Sure can. Let's go on a warm day. I hate the cold.

[mikecentola]

Awesome! I'll PM you my number, send me a text so I have yours
