Re: Arms Room rant/inquiry on change of policy
There is an outdoor shooting range in League City - the clear creek shooting range http://www.clearcreekgunrange.com they are fairly cheap - like 9 bucks per shooter (each shooter gets 1 gun) and 3 or 4 bucks for each additional gun. The wife and me go there on the weekends when the weather is decent.

Re: Arms Room rant/inquiry on change of policy
Armed - I use to go to the Arms Room myself, I never did do the holster safety course. I was under the impression (the way they talked when I asked) that they use to allow you to sign up and do the safety course at any time, you just had to arrange it with the instructor/range officer.(Maybe this changed due to demand or I just didn't get a clear enough picture) But as I took it, its was not so much a safety course as it is the Range Officer watching you draw and making sure you can do so safely without flagging yourself or others.ArmedAndPolite wrote:I was practicing drawing from my holster and firing (which I have done dozens of times without complaint and is one of the main reasons I ever visit the range). I had finished emptying my last mag when the range officer walked up to me and said I needed a Holster Class Badge to be shooting after drawing from my holster.
What?
I need to take the holster safety course. A course offered on Saturdays for $20.
Then I'll receive a badge I wear on the range so they know I have taken their class.
I work Saturdays 5am-5:30pm and don't have time for some "holster class"
Has anyone here taken this class and learned something useful?
Tbh, I don't plan on going back, I'll just find a range that doesn't ask for money to draw and shoot from a holster.
This post is partially a rant and an inquiry about this holster safety course.
Couple follow up questions Armed - do you have their membership or do you pay per visit to the range ? The range fees use to be like 20 bucks a person, so 20 for a safety course would be about the same as range fees, or would the 20 bucks be on top of the range fees ?
