Erik S. Posted February 15, 2011 Share Posted February 15, 2011 I honestly wonder what place has the most top GM's shooting matches at. maybe Rio Salado? I'm not sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
want2race Posted February 15, 2011 Share Posted February 15, 2011 I grew up in Tucson and would move back if the job market wasn't crap there. The Kart track outside of Tucson rents 125cc shifter karts if you need to raise your heart rate above 250. 4 wheel drifts in 3rd gear, wide open, with your butt 2 inches off the ground will get your attention. Anyway... Kentucky has some of the gun friendly-est laws I've encountered. I grew up were a 16 y/o could open carry a G19 without parental consent. Even still, KY impresses me. Besides...then there's the Bourbon! Close proximity to many matches. Rock Castle is 2 hours from my house, or the same as driving from Tucson to Phoenix in traffic. It snows, but usually just enough to remind you how fun it is to drift on snow covered roads (re: first paragraph). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
benos Posted February 15, 2011 Share Posted February 15, 2011 Arizona, any place within driving distance of Rio Salado.... You'd be shooting with some of the best all year long. You would, of course, have to change your screen name :-) I'll second that. Where else can you rub shoulders and battle it out with the TGO, on a weekly basis.

jaffo Posted February 19, 2011 Share Posted February 19, 2011 Texas! We have no State Tax and issue handguns and conceal carry license as you enter the state. The job market isn't horrible either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any chance he might rub shoulders at the range with you over in AZ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jr0402 Posted February 23, 2011 Share Posted February 23, 2011 I say NM and depending on were you go in NM the temps are great year round and usually a short drive to MANY clubs. Were I am at I can shoot every weekend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
facelessman Posted March 7, 2011 Share Posted March 7, 2011 I realize this is a bit late... but to add my $.02 Each month, between Tucson and the Phoenix area, there are 8 different USPSA matches. I think there's 7 steel matches. You can shoot TWO matches every weekend, and even some during the week. I haven't shot any of the 3 Gun matches (yet) so I'm not sure on those. Area 2, driving distance to Vegas... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Erik S. Posted March 7, 2011 Share Posted March 7, 2011 The whol "it's a dry heat" bit is BS. When it's hot, it's hot. Yes, it's a different FEELING of hot. When you sweat and the wind blows across your face it actually DOES cool you down because it's not 100% humidity, but then again, how "cool" can you get when it's 115 outside. That said, steps can be taken to keep cool when it's that hot. A damp rag tied around your neck does it for me and use plenty of sunscreen. Less clothes to get in the way of your draw and mag changes, too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fireman275 Posted March 8, 2011 Share Posted March 8, 2011 WA state is nice. We get rain but very little snow. The local gun club has stuff going year round. Although I wouldn't call it a retirement location. My retirement location would be Hawaii, or something similar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
silvercorvette Posted March 9, 2011 Share Posted March 9, 2011 SC has some good laws, they are very close to signing a bill to allow carry without a permit. I like the heat and was considering AZ but I still have friends in NY that I like to visit and NY is drivable in one day if you push it hard and two to three days if you drive slow and take your time. Full auto is legal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
