Dragos83 Posted March 27, 2011 Share Posted March 27, 2011 Just wanted to say hi from Virginia. Well technically, I am TAD right now, but I should be back home soon. I am a new/intermediate shooter and go to the range with my wife and friends to improve our marksmanship skills. I have the desire to get into some 3-Gun competitions in the future, but I believe some regular matches locally will suffice for now (Yes, I have read the beginner post and it stated to get into the national matches as soon as possible, but I am nervous so I think I need to stick to my comfort level until I improve). I am currently in the Chesapeake area in Virginia which borders North Carolina and wanted to know if anyone knows of a decent range to practice some 3-Gun? I usually go to C2 Shooting Center out in Pongo and it is a decent range, but not too much steel targets and no 3-gunners around. Are there any local clubs in my area that I am missing? Been to a few other ranges as well and been to a few of the gun shows around here... the only club I have seen shoots some IDPA and others that shoot cowboy action. Well, that is it for now. I hope to learn a lot from this forum. I have seen the quality of posts from a few individuals in here and I know I can learn a lot here about sport shooting. I am also on the forum Sniper's Hide as Dragos83 (for the distance shooting discipline). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
justforfun Posted March 27, 2011 Share Posted March 27, 2011 Welcome to the forum. It is a great resource for shooting. Can't help you with clubs in your area but I'm sure someone on here can point you in the right direction for local shooting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dragos83 Posted March 27, 2011 Author Share Posted March 27, 2011 I do appreciate the warm welcome. I guess I can keep on hitting different ranges until I find somebody that does 3-Gun and get a mentor, but not too sure if 3-Gun is even big in this area. I know Black Creek area about an hour and a half from here does (website hasn't been updated in awhile showing new match dates though)... but haven't heard anything else. I guess I can look into North Carolina as well since I live 30 minutes north of the border between Virginia and NC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
