No, what he meant was he built it out of 1X2 wood which is the size of the wood itself.  (like 2 by 4).  But he uses thumbscrew fittings instead of nails and screws so you can collapse it.

Building it this way will fit in almost any trunk or backseat of a vehicle.

If you google KHSC target frames it will show the dimensions and type of lumber you can purchase at City Mill, etc.  Or you might find you have the materials at home already.

Security Equipment Gunshop sells target frames that can be used at KHSC.  It's built so you can collapse it.

Nice! Thanks. I’ll check out SEC.

If you have rudimentary wood working skills (sawing, nailing, drilling, measuring) you can whip up a frame in minutes.

I made one with 1x2 wood and thumbscrews to collapse the thing to transport.   Not rocket science.

Frame only has to be 1 by 2 feet? I was worried it had to be big and I wouldn’t be able to fit it in my car. I got a camry.

I see. I guess the main reason I wanted an indoor range is cus I don’t want to buy/have the equipment to set up my own targets. I remember checking at an outdoor range’s website before and they said you needed a frame to set up your targets  etc. lots if good info here though. Thx.

General Discussion / Shooting range recommendations?

Which of these ranges would you recommend going to? Customer service is important.

808 Gunclub
Swat Gunclub
Waikiki Gunclub
Xring Security

Looking to try out my rifle.
Thanks!

Jumping over the counter could be justification for the stabbing, but the problem is the guy was focused on taking items from the shelves instead of attacking the store owner at which point the justification ends.  A couple stabs could be justified giving the store owner the benefit of the doubt and heat of the moment, but he should've stopped it earlier when the robber was compliant.

He punched the shopowner in the face. That’s why he kept getting stabbed.

That makes him "Toast".
I used to hope that some intelligent people lived in Hawaii.
Intelligent in the "Common Sense" department.
Given what I've seen in my 22 plus years;
The Government of Hawaii reflects their voters very well and is an excellent
expression of what the majority of citizens of Hawaii really are.
Emotionally immature, fearful, irresponsible, Slaves.
Freedom scares the hell out of most of them.

You’re absolutely right. I’m saving money now to move to the mainland next year or after. Tired of the npcs over here.

The first time I tried to find Brent's place I ended up driving past it 4-5 times, lol!  You turn onto Bannister STREET from Dillingham, go past BF TILE (can't miss it) then turn LEFT onto Bannister PLACE.  Drive down to the T intersection, turn LEFT and drive past a couple of homes/apartments.  Dead ahead you'll see a small parking lot that is chain link fenced in.  That's BNR.  Be sure to call ahead so they know you're coming.

Brent has some ammo and accessories but his main business is FFL transfers and on occaision he'll get consigned/estate guns to sell.  Best to call and let him know what you're looking for.   :shaka:

Thanks! Will try again later this week.

General Discussion / Anyone bought anything from BNR Tactical before?
« on: June 14, 2022, 03:50:25 PM »
I tried going there today. But once I turned right at OCCC my gps said “you have arrived at your destination” and I didn’t see anything except houses and one way streets. Anyone have good experiences with this shop? Or private dealer????

Thanks for the replies everyone!

…to buying what’s available locally? I’m looking for a Mossberg 590 shotgun and can’t seem to find it on island (Oahu).

Political Discussion / Any doctors in Honolulu that isn’t provax?
« on: November 04, 2021, 03:37:00 AM »
It’s open enrollment soon and I currently have Kaiser. Their Drs are pretty provax and keep trying to force me to get vaccinated. I’m thinking of switching to HMSA but I’m looking for a doctor that won’t try to persuade me to get the shot every time I see them or tell me I can’t make an appt unless I’m vaccinated or have a negative test result.

Thx.

Thanks for the response everyone. Guess I’ll pay a little more for brass.

General Discussion / Silver casing vs brass casing?
« on: October 31, 2021, 12:52:59 AM »
Does it really matter which casing your bullets have? Silver is cheaper, but I’ve heard stories of them destroying guns. Is it worth paying for brass casing?

The covid order affects indoor gun ranges, so all indoor shooting ranges on Oahu are affected.  It does not apply to outdoor ranges.

Nice, thanks!

I think 808 gun club wanted a vaccine card or negative test result. What about the other ranges? Anyone gone shooting lately at a place that doesn’t want a vaccine card?

Thanks!

Shoots. Thanks everyone.

Do you order on their site and pick it up the same day? Or is there any appt time to pick it up? Anyone had any issues with them? Thinking of buying ammo in bulk cus of ammo shortage.

Thanks.
