Newbie to the Site.

Postby Josh189 on Wed May 11, 2011 8:25 pm

Hello all, My name is Josh. I learned of this site by a friend and so far i've got to say most of you guys are good people, that like good fun and support the second ammendment. I'm looking to join some shooting clubs and get into competitive shooting. I've been through a shooting league through work, but am looking for something within IDPA and IPSC; or just any fun comps near the metro area. I'm a little new to the site and as of yet cannot navigate it well. So any help would be appreciated. In closing, I'm glad to be a part of a MN organization supporting the 2nd amendment. Thanks agin and I look forward to getting some trigger time...

Thanks you guys, it's nice to see the support you all give. I hope I can meet some of you on the range, til then; I'll be joining the Oakdale Gun Club as soon as we close on the house out there. I love shooting Pistols and was looking for a good competition or league to get into. If anyone has any insight it would be greatly appreciated. I guess what I'd like is what the best leagues and membership experiences everyone has had.

Thanks for the wlecome,

J

Just a suggestion.....

Get your application in now. Last I heard their waiting list was a couple of years long.
