Aloha! (Murfreesboro)


Recommended Posts

Posted

Aloha,

I just moved here from Hawaii about two or three months ago. I am currently residing in Murfreesboro, TN. I got into shooting when I went through police training academy in Hawaii. Just starting my gun collection with a Colt AR-15 6940, Mossberg 590, and a Glock 19. Hoping after I finish my degree to get back into law enforcement. I love shooting, never tried hunting (can't really hunt anything in Hawaii!). Lookin for some good places to shoot besides $ On Target here in Murfreesboro!

I already bought my first shotgun (Mossberg 590) here in Tennessee and I gotta say I love how easy it is to buy a gun here. In Hawaii you have to be 21 to own any type of firearm, you have to apply for a rifle permit, wait two weeks, go to the store, buy the gun, take the gun to the local police station(between 8am-4pm), register it, THEN take it home. Buying a pistol is worse. You have to do ALL the same things and in addition you have to take a handgun safety course before you apply for a permit. It's such a pain! Oh, and conceal carry.. Yeah, ain't none-uh-that... Lets just say I'm happy to be in Tennessee and I intend to make it home. :slap:

Anyway, looking forward to participating in the forums! Stay safe!

Welcome from a fellow Murfreesboro-nian. I'm also looking for a place other than On Target to shoot, 20 dollars range fee is kinda expensive for my budget.

Thanks for the welcome guys! I have to see if my girl will let me go to the meet and greet. Spring Hill IS close and I hope I can go! How much is it?

(Willis68) - Nice! I was born and raised on the island of Oahu (1989-2011). =P I've been to the Big Island many times though. I love Hilo-side and driving up Mauna Kea for the sunset!

Welcome from a Haole. Lived in Hawaii (Wahiawa) in the '80's for six years. Dad did two tours at NAVCAMS.

welcome. Good outdoor ranges in Manchester (Walden Ridge) and Woodbury (OK Corral). Both let you shoot all day for $5.
