    I just got back from my first meeting at the Berwyn Rod and Gun Club where I got voted in. Everyone there seemed pretty nice and made my wife and I feel welcome. We got our range badges and I'm looking forward to finally putting some rounds down range with my new LWRC M6A2. Now if I can just get those target stand built before the weekend.

    Thanks for the offer Vince. I shouldn't have any problem in constructing them. It's just a matter of getting off of my butt and going into the shop and pulling the lumber.

    I was considering submitting an application to join the club but have been hesitating. I read on the webpage to berwyn that volunteer work is a plus and was figuring they would probably consider my membership because I am a contractor and am capable to contribute some manpower(for maintenance/repairs).

    I wanted to join the club but never hear anything back after i filled the application out no one ever called me !

    If you send me your information via PM (name & phone number) I'll do what I can to find out what's up with your application to BRGC, ranger3five and get back to you.

    Alternatively call 301-464-9830 and someone will return your call typically within 24 hours.

    I'm on my second year with Berwyn Rod&Gun, couldn't be happier, great club and folks.

    If anyone is interested in joining, best to fill out the online application, and Jim will contact you. You'll have to attend one ~3 hour safety class and range orientation, then attend (preferably the next) monthly meeting. They are on the first Wed of every month, next one is 5 May, plenty of time to get the class. Membership is $400 a year, plus $200 for the first year for new members. There are a lot of people that donate money to the club, do free work for the club, and volunteer time/services for the club and it's members.

    We voted in over a half dozen new members at the last meeting, I voted for you jerielg, and welcome!

    Anyone interested in joining or learning more heres the link: http://www.berwyn.org/

    I don't know if they have IHMSA matches there, I doubt it since I haven't heard of it. They don't do IDPA shooting there if that is similar. Ok, I just googled it, nope, paper targets only at Berwyn. That looks like a lot of fun though. Let us know if you find a place here in Central Maryland.

    Welcome to Berwyn, i really like the ranges. I typically get to shoot every other monday since i work and RDO schedule and i'm the only one out there.

    I wanted to join the club but never hear anything back after i filled the application out no one ever called me !

    If you filled out an online application a while back and never heard anything, they were having problems with the web interface not forwarding the app. I had the same issue and when I contacted them they had no clue who i was. I went to a meeting and filled out the paperwork.

    I got in under the same stringent requirements as most other members....I had the $ :lol2:
    P.S. Have you noticed how much more the wood work has been getting shot up since they started allowing the Bowie PD to shoot there ?

    The Bowie PD have been like a pack of angry Beavers...

    Yea if those angry beavers shoot 9mm bullets from their teeth :D
    The walkway decking at the 50 yd target range was about ready to collapse from being shot so much.
    Just seems like a lot of new bullet holes everywhere at the 50 foot range as well since the beavers started shooting there.:innocent0
