No Notice on their website or at the range...
I bring my form 1 registered SBR, I am told I cannot shoot any NFA weapons there. I swap uppers, and I am allowed to shoot. I point out that despite switching uppers, my AR is still an NFA rifle because the tax stamp doesn't follow the upper but the lower. Story then changes to that the barrel length is the problem and I am not allowed to shoot an SBR.
I was lucky that I brought a second upper along or I would have wasted over an hour driving each way to shoot at CRESAP. The website says no class III firearms now... So does that mean that I cannot bring my AR with the 20 inch upper because it's a class three weapon. I know CRESAP members read this forum, I look forward to an intelligent discussion of this "new" and rather unpopular policy.
Personally, I am disappointed with CRESAP for the change in policy. I recently applied for membership and was denied. In the interest of full disclosure I want to make it clear that my post is not motivated by this denial. While I am disappointed that my application was denied, I understand that they are not interested in new members that they do not know on a personal level and have sponsorship from inside the club for... that is certainly their right and I respect that.
I will continue to shoot at and support CRESAP through my donations, but I am disappointed in this recent change in policy regarding SBR's.
