If you belong to a gun club, how much are the dues?

[gggman]

I just joined a gun club. They have a range that's about 8 miles from my house. It's an outdoor range only, no indoor range. They have a nice clubhouse, and shooting benches with target berms from 50 to 300 yards.
The annual dues is twenty bucks!
I was just curious about how much other folks pay for annual dues at a gun club. I'm sure that those with an indoor range would be more expensive, but I think twenty bucks a year for a place to shoot is a steal.

[EDITED for clarification]

$35/year for membership.

Members can use shooting range for $4 all day (non-member is $10 all day).

 

[taxburdett]

I pay $50 a year for the outdoor range that I am a member of. It includes a public pistol range, a public rifle range, a members only range, an archery range, and many organized activities. Shooting on any of the ranges is free for members. I think it's worth it.

 

[VictorLouis]

Outdoors:
Rifle range with points at 50-100-200-300 yds.

Bullseye range with 25-50, and a 10 yd. point for state's CCW qualification.

Pistol of 10-15-20-25

Trap

2 standard configuration pads and a 3rd. on the way.

Indoor(mobile home modules)
airgun(though I've never seen it)
Full offices and a conference room.

$50 per year, plus $25 worth of raffle tickets which we all buy ourselves.
OR work 4hrs. per year cleaning up the facilities.

sore subject

The Lewis & Clark Rifle & Pistol Club dues increased 50% in one stinkin year after staying constant for the last 20 years. It was tough enough snakin $10 out of my wife's purse, but next year I'll have to fork over US$15.

I'll have to fork over US$15.

I'm getting hosed! 60 clams here.

You people have it TOO good! .

Outdoor Range: $125 per year. Or if you are already an NRA member, $100. Closed in the winter, which in oregon is 9 months out of the year.

Indoor Range: $75 per year with only two free shoots. Then you pay $10 per visit after that. It is unlimited time, you can go in at opening and leave at closing if you have the stamina and ammo.

its not a club, but i bought a year pass for a range, $55 i think....otherwise its $7 per day.

the pass paid for itself quickly.

 

[R.H. Lee]

$25 per year plus $5 range fee each time. Pistol, Rifle (25,50,75,100+increments out to 400yds) Golf balls and reactive targets ok. Good benches, spotting scopes, etc. Great RO!

 

[M1911]

Free. I'm the VP and dues are waived for officers Of course, given the amount of work I do for the club, I'm effectively getting paid way less than minimum wage.

For those who aren't officers, annual dues is $95.

 

[MountainPeak]

$60.00 if an NRA member. Indoor/outdoor pistol, and up to 300 yds., rifle. Unlimited use.

 

[CannibalCrowley]

$50/year 7, 25, 50, 100 yards, with no additional fees
skeet, trap, sporting clays, silhouette, with per round fees

My biggest beef is that you can't bring guests unless you upgrade to a Charter Membership, which includes $25 in raffle tickets, spring clean up, annual field day, working league shooting days, and attending meetings.

That sounds just like my range except it's $75 a year. Oh well it's nice to go whenever I want except at night.

 

[Kodiak AK]

I almost forgot . The R.O. of the long range has a Class3 collection to drool over , and if you are there when he is playing with it he will let you sqeeze a few mags off .

 

[Knives]

$31 a year.

There are two outdoor ranges and an indoor range. Downside is that the longest distance outside is 200 yards, and the only ammo allowed in the indoor range is .22.

Out in the woods though, which is nice.

 

[Sisco]

Outdoor only, combat pistol, bowling pins, trash pit and rifle from 50 to 1000 yards.
$50 per year plus an NRA membership.

 

[Black Majik]

You all have it EASY!

Trust me.

Ever seen a membership reach into the hungreds?

I have.

 

[mattjoe]

$100 for the membership, gets you trap and skeet at member prices 2.50/round non members- 4.50
$25 additional if you want a rifle pistol range pass. Otherwise it's $2 everytime you use it.
Best money I spend every year.

 

[P5 Guy]

St. Petersburg Police Pistol Club $125 for civilians shoot as much as you can stand after that.

 

[J. Garand]

Tomorrow is my clubs open house and renewal day. We pay 90 bucks!

And its worth every dime..

 

[Firethorn]

Minot Rifle & Pistol is $50 for a years membership. $750 for life memberships, but they change that every so often. The four outdoor ranges are free, and open 7 days a week excluding events. This includes wintertime, if you can stand shooting in -30 weather . Hint: don't shoot blazer in a semi when it's this cold. They didn't retain enough oomph to cycle the slide on my CZ.

We have a new indoor range that was just constructed, but the new charging scheme for that hasn't been set.
