Any ORSA members out there?

[justincredibleg]

I recently moved back to Knoxville and am looking for a new place to shoot. In alot of the western states I have lived you can drive 20 minutes in any direction and find open land to shoot on. Since that isn't legal here in TN I need to find somewhere I can go shoot regularly without having to pay $10+ per visit.

I am interested in becoming a member at ORSA and actually have my filled out application on my desk. It looks like long term I will need a current member in good standing to "sponsor" me and if I get one now it will make joining easier.

I am an NRA member and a Utah conceal carry permit holder(TN permit in the works). I can join initially with just my NRA membership but am not a patient person.

Anyone out there willing to take me around and show me the facility/potentially sponsor me?

I was under the impression that the NRA membership counted as a sponsor.

I'll sign it for you.

You can get a membership without a sponsor, I think they just have to read your name at two consecutive meetings, instead of just one. I've never been to one of the meetings, but I think they ask if anyone knows why an individual should not be a member.

Correct, the NRA will work however it takes at least 2 months to process instead of 1 month and after a year I can't renew without a ORSA sponsor.

Thanks BrasilNuts, under ORSA member i just penciled in "BrasilNuts". Should be good enough.

BrasilNuts sponsored me and I haven't been kicked out yet so I guess he's got good judgement!

[justincredibleg]

Yep, thanks BrasilNuts! I met up with him earlier today and got squared away. I am excited to go out and join in on the fun.

Did you make the USPSA today?
