[INMY01TA]

2-3 handguns
OR
1-2 rifles

Yup, it was jam packed in there Saturday night. Had four noobs on one lane sharing a rental 22...

They let that many people on one lane? On Target only allows two per lane.

normally its only 2. I guess its bc one of the employees was literally helping each of them one-on-one and the rest were just observing.

Usually just 2 firearms because of the time to clean afterwards . Either 2 handguns or 1 rifle & 1 handgun.

When i go to the range I typically stay for the day, so I bring a good bit. Id say 10 rifles and 10 pistols give or take. I leave most in my truck and only bring 2-3 at a time to the lane and switch out every so often. Good thing about my range is I can back right up to my lane and park there.

Everything I want to bring I have to bring x2, bacause my wife has her own guns.

 

[Mini14tac]

2 or 3 depending if I am sighting in or not. I rarely take more than I feel like cleaning!

 

[jimbobborg]

at people cleaning their guns afterwards. The only guns I clean right away are ones I shot with BP as the propellent. The most firearms I've taken at one time is 6, all pistols. I don't have a cart, so I don't drag 5-6 long guns.

 

[Redcobra]

My skeet gun (20g O/U), My trap gun (12g unsingle), and my 5-stand gun (12g O/U).
Sometimes my Sporter with 28g and .410 tubes.

 

[Waz]

1 or 2 if i'm shooting alone 3-6 if i go with some friends thats don't have their own

 

[echo6mike]

Usually just one or two - I try to focus on one thing each session, maybe grip/stance, slow or rapid fire, reloading, something. Dot torture is on my list to work on this Spring...

Tending to take fewer all the time.

Getting older and realizing I have been buying more than I have been shooting in the last 25 years.
Never even took the time to get proficient with some of the guns.

Taking my son to the club more and more. I take 1 rifle and/or 1 handgun and my son's American rimfire compact.

I get more of a hoot watching and helping him shoot than pulling the trigger myself.

 

[erwos]

2-3 rifles, plus a handgun or two if I'm feeling feisty or bringing a friend. I've matured enough of as a shooter that shooting at less than 25yds feels boring to me.

 

[j_h_smith]

It can be anywhere from 4 to 20 depending on the number of people I take. AGC will see the most, indoor ranges will see about 4-8, also depending on who goes with me.

Many times I won't shoot but maybe one or two mags when I take newbies. I have spent 3 hours at the range and never fired a shot. Even when my kids were growing up, I let them do the shooting and I'd stand by to watch and correct any bad habits I see. I do get out and do some real shooting, but even then, I never go to the range by myself.

I take 3 to 5 rifles & maybe a couple handguns on a typical day at AGC. But I sometimes run out of time before I get to fire all of them. When I get home I give all (that I actually shot) a wipe-down but don't necessarily do a full cleaning, I may just push an oiled patch down the bore if I think I'll be taking the same gun to range again soon.

 

[ihriec]

2-3 handguns and usually 1 rifle.

 

[platekiller]

2-4 rifles. Typically there is something I'm testing or sighting in. So 2 rifles is normally work then I bring something fun to shoot steel. That way I have fun even if the work isn't very fruitful.

Pistols 1-4 depending. I always bring my glock and run at least 50 rounds through it. I carry it so I shoot it any time I shoot. Then if I have something to work on or feel like shooting then I'll bring it. Tomorrow I will bring my beretta 92 since its been a while since I shot it and it's my bedroom gun.

 

[Jed195]

No more than I feel like cleaning when I get done, with my son about to be introduced to shooting I see a lot more cleaning our future, up until now he has just been snapping in.

 

[Whitey]

I'm still waiting for "as many as I want. Range is in the backyard."

This.

However, I have been a member before. Then it was a couple rifles and a couple pistols.
