Hello everyone my name is Von Richcreek. I live in Smyrna, TN with my wife and daughter and I am a Realtor with Crye-Leike, Realtors. I am an avid gun enthusiast looking to get into competitive pistol shooting. I spent about 5 years in the Marine Corps as an Infantryman so I am no stranger to guns. I use to shoot Trap competitively when I was in High School, but that was years ago and I don't get to shoot my shotguns as often anymore. I'm looking for a community like this to help get me going in the competitive shooting world because while I am no stranger to guns, competition shooting is a new arena for me. 

 

I'm interested in IDPA, but I'd like to hear all about what other options are out there. I had a Springfield XDM .40, but unfortunately the gun and I just didn't work well together, so I will be shooting my new Beretta PX4 Storm 9mm. Any help, thoughts, advice, and encouragement would be greatly appreciated. I've always found that I tend to stay more involved with my hobbies when I have someone to share them with.

Welcome to the party from La Vergne. +1 for the TWRA range (Stones River Hunter Education Center) on Hobson Pike. Good deal at $5.50/trip or $101/year.

I figured the full name would make it easier in case the OP might want to look it up online. It'd be an even better place if there were more rifle lanes.

Welcome, Smyrna here too. Enjoy the site.

Hey rugerla1 where is the closest and cheapest place to shoot around Smyrna? I know of a couple of places, but I'm sure there are some more elusive locations hiding from me.

Thanks for adding the correct name. I had writer's block and I usually just call it "the gun range on Hobson Pike" lol It's not my favorite range of them but close, and cheap!

If you get a chance come up to Montgomery county to the MCSC range. Very nice TWRA range and bigger than the Hobson Pike one and a little less controlling.
