Question New Private Club Interest?

38 Upvotes

Myself and a few friends have identified a very large and remote private property that we want to turn into a membership-based gun club, but possibly open to the public during the week. The property is located 30 minutes outside of Olympia in a more 2A friendly locale. Memberships would be transferable, like at a country club.

Our initial plan includes building a lodge with snack bar and FFL/shop, several covered outdoor pistol ranges, trap range, and a 100-400m rifle range. Initial cost $900k, using pre-fab/modular structures.

Eventually we want to build an indoor pistol range with automatic target returns ($1m), a shoot house ($300k), and a dorm for overnight stays ($2m). We eventually want to attract/host classes and training for interested individuals and LE/SF… some of us have deep connections to those communities (one was even an instructor for those communities).

The question is though: is there interest and what would YOU pay for a membership? We’re looking at like a $2000 buy in, 500 member max, with $500ish annual dues thereafter. Or maybe a higher buy-in ($5k) and dues with fewer members (200) to avoid overcrowding?

What are your thoughts? Trying to gauge market interest before we make any offers or obligations.

As far as I can tell, it's just about the only semi auto .308 you can legally own? What else am I missing?

Hello fam,

Currently own a Colt AR15A4. I have most of the additional parts like in the pic, and would like to do something similar for the launcher. As for the 37mm launcher vs the 40mm, do I need a tax stamp per munition for 40mm vs 37mm? Would you consider 37mm over 40mm and why?

Thanks in advance everyone!

Anyone do a decent barrel port on my beretta somewhat near Olympia? Longshot said they were months out, and prefer not to send it out if I don’t have to.

Discussion Ten days are up, still delayed.

Just wondering how common it currently is to still be on delay after the ten days are up? 24 years of CPLs and transfers have never been accused of any crime. Thanks guys.

Question Suppressors via Silencer Shop and using existing Trust?

4 Upvotes

I was hoping someone could help me understand my options. I set up a trust back when the ATF went through the whole pistol versus SBR debacle, and got approved for 2 SBRs through the amnesty program at the time.

Now I'd like to get suppressors via the silencer shop. Do I need to stop by the LGS Long Shot in Yelm and show them my Trust paperwork? Or do I upload it to SS's dashboard somewhere? Or do I just buy SS's single shot trust for the new suppressors?
