After spending the last three years on the southwest border I traded in the badge and gun for a new job back home in Virginia. I am working in Norther Virginia.
I was hoping you guys could help me out. I just ordered a new HK p2000 (they wouldn't let me keep mine :mad:) from Virginia Arms and it should arrive by the end of this week. Unfortunately, I don't really know of many places to shoot around here. I could always drive down to the Richmond area where my parents live and find a place to shoot down there but that's a nice haul just to shoot.
Where do you northern Virginians go to shoot? NRA Range? I live in Arlington (Ballston), so I was hoping for something relatively close to avoid this god awful traffic as much as possible. I remember shooting at a range in Alexandria/Springfield about 4 years ago; I remember it being pretty small though.
Are there any 3gun competitions near by or good shooting clubs worth checking out? I got into some competitive shooting back in AZ and I really like it...I'm gonna have to get my excitement from somewhere--I sit behind a desk now.:help:
For the record: I'd be willing to drive to go to a good shooting spot. I want to run my m4 as well so any ranges indoor/outdoor that allow for rifle is a definite plus.
