After 16 years away, it looks like I will be moving back to central NC later this year.
along with all of the various other concerns related to such a change, I would like to gather as much information as I can about not only current USPSA clubs in the area but also suggestions for what gun clubs / ranges to look into possibly joining and what each provides in the way of various disciplines etc.
bear with me while I go through my thoughts here in the hopes that they help clarify what I hope to find...
anyway, that is what has been running through my mind for half the day. I'm sure something else will come to mind as well, if not of it's own accord then in response to the info you kind folk are able to provide. thank you in advance for any info you choose to share, it is always welcome.

- most likely will be moving back to the Raleigh-Durham-Chapel Hill area but not entirely sure yet, depends on where I find work.
- I spent 16 years of my life (1st-12th grade + 4yrs) in Durham, but since i never really went past the basics re: firearms until the last 18 months to two years i was there, my knowlege of things like the purchase permit system/process for handguns is limited
- the only what you might call "Organized ranges" I ever visited in thos 16 years were The Range in Oxford, at the time Mr. Glover offered memberships to folk to shoot there during times when the range wasn't set or in use for a match, and Sir Walter Gun Club in Creedmoor (once). so I don't know anything about what's out there and at what cost any more.
- In addition to a refresher on basic things like Where to shoot, current gun law (including Concealed Carry), and where the good gun stores are. I am also looking for info on where to find certain Competition types, Specifically USPSA/IPSC (IDPA is currently secondary for me), CMP Garand matches, F-class, and for later various black Powder goings on (BPCR Silhouette, and various Muzzleloader doings)
