Depends on how many people you're paying for! I spent $200 for 4 of us to shoot all day. That's between $40 - $50 each.
YMMV

Depends on what you shoot.
For EXAMPLE.
IF script is $0.50 each, 2 script ($1.00) may get you 10 rounds of .22
IF script is $0.50 each, 5 script ($2.50) may get you 10 rounds of 9mm
IF script is $0.50 each, 10 script ($5.00) may get you 10 rounds of .45

Been hearing ads on the radio "shoot guns and ammo"
-
Tough to shoot one without the other...

anyone know who that guy was sitting under the tree near the archery asking for signatures to petition the mayor for renovations? he has blueprint plans on the table about the renovations and got 2ahawaii written down. i asked him what the site was about and he said its a blog kinda thing. he said he there for his boss and pulled out a clipboard with minutes and notes taken down. he told me his name was nate but didn't say who guys boys was our what company. he only got 60 signatures today as well even though he was there all day. Just wondering if anyone knows who that was or if anyone saw and talked to him

Nice meeting you today Bass Monkey. Seem like a pretty good turn out. Tomorrow will probably be busier.
Wonder if the guy you saw works for that landscaper / contractor that goes to the Hi Kai board meetings?
Had drafts of parking structure and meeting/classrooms. Get real, broke *ss city can't fix old restroom by rifle range or maintain facilities.
Heard the roof rattling in the wind by sileoutte range where law enforcement uses during the week yikes....
It's all the shooting clubs & volunteers that keep our range going. Thanks Macsak and the crews, youre the unsung heros. We appreciate all you do!
Aloha!

His name is Nate and he said he works for Kevin Mulkern (yes, he's the landscaper that goes to the HK board meetings.) I agree that the plans seem a little far fetched for the reasons you mentioned. The petition was to have improvements made, not necessarily the plans that were drawn out. I think it would make more sense to make the plans a little simpler and not try for so much, but I'm not in charge or anything. I think we'd all like to see improvements and anyone organizing a fight for that has my support.

Huge mahalos to all the staff!! VERY safe and well-run event, and an outstanding way to introduce newbies to the joys of shooting. Kids are asking when we're going back... :thumbsup:

Entirely possible. My daughter went right before me and shot a Glock; I tried the P226 (been thinking about picking up a P229, so I wanted to feel a Sig trigger). Good, clean fun!

I made it down to the fair as well and it did not disappoint! I didn't spend all day, but I couldn't afford that anyway! Got to shoot a Tavor, Scar 17, and the HK VP9 (I'm starting to really like the VP9). Shout out to the dude from Xring I chatted with a bit (I think he said his name was Dexter? Sorry not sure I got that right).

Did some dork come up and ask if you had an S&W P229?
Yep, that was me.
Slightly confused.
