Bike is SS. I was wondering if there are enough gas stations on the way or i have to carry extra gas with me. This is my first long ride and probably a start of my long rides on ss, since city riding is getting boring.

East Elgin Sportmens Association will again be hosting their annual open house.
(last years thread: http://www.gtamotorcycle.com/vbforum...n-9th-amp-10th)



WHEN: Saturday June 8th and Sunday June 9th, 2013. 9AM until 5PM (the time on the flyer above is wrong).

WHERE: http://goo.gl/maps/bipUu (GPS co-ords are visible in that link. Use them.)

WHAT: EESA Open House (Near Woodstock/Aylmer/Springfield/London, ONT). Gun range is open to the public ONCE A YEAR! THIS IS IT! Hundreds of guns for you to try! Handguns (BIG ONES TOO!), Military style rifles (BIG ONES TOO! YOU MUST SHOOT THE .50BMG!!!), old WW2 style rifles (M1 garand hits hard), shotguns (short tactical style plus hunting types too), archery stuff, etc., etc.!! 300 meter outdoor sniper range, 100 meter outdoor rifle range, indoor handgun range (with paper targets you get to keep to brag about your shooting ability or lack there of. You're not allowed to shoot at pictures of people, even Osama, etc.).

COST: $10 admission (or $30 per family) plus you pay for ammo that you use in whatever guns you choose. Some guns are cheap (like .22 guns you get a bunch of bullets for $1) and some are super expensive (.50BMG is usually around $10 per shot). 9mm handgun is cheap. Military 5.56/.223 stuff is cheap, etc. etc. There will be a price board hung up at each range station. Works good to say "that bullet looks like fun, show me what guns can use that" or vice versa with asking what ammo that "cool" gun uses. When you walk in the front entrance buy "ammo tickets" at the admission desk. Buy a bunch cause you don't want to have run from the range back to the admission gate to buy more tickets!!

FOOD: Food is available for purchase all day. BBQ stuff, hotdogs, burgers, drinks, etc. Not sure if they have veggie options but I would assume not. Super reasonable prices.


FAQ:

q. Who's allowed to shoot? Do I need a gun license?
a. ANYONE is allowed to shoot*. No license required. They don't check your ID, fingerprint you, retina scan, DNA test, background check, etc. It doesn't matter how old you are, what colour you are or what your "background" is, you're welcome to fondle whatever gun you choose.

*You will be required to sign a waiver and declaration that you're not under any firearms prohibition.

q. I don't know how to shoot a gun.
a. That's not a question but I'll answer it anyway. A licensed instructor takes every person, 1 on 1, with whatever gun you choose. He shows you how to load it, handle it, shoot it, etc.

q. How many guns am I allowed to shoot?
a. As many as you have money for ammo =). One at a time of course. No they won't let you hold one in each arm and shoot them, and no "shooting from the hip" either. They let you fire as fast as you want. Super fun on the .22's with 25rd mags =)

q. Can I get my picture taken with said gun?
a. Maybe. Due to the secure nature of the "hot" range area it's difficult for random people to get in there to take pictures. If you as the shooter have a camera with you and you get a nice instructor they might take a pic of you AFTER you have finished shooting said gun and it is UNLOADED and safe.

q. What clothing is appropriate for the range?
a. The shells coming out of the guns are HOT and don't feel nice when they land on your feet when you're wearing flip flops, etc. Bring a hat (for the sunny weather, not really for the guns, lol)!

q. What safety gear do I need?
a. None. It will be provided for you by the range. Your motorcycle ear plugs will work fine for shooting the guns. They will provide safety glasses and ear muffs for those that don't have plugs. **WEAR PLUGS! You have no idea how annoying everyone's exhaust will be the entire ride down there =)

q. I'm a girl, can I shoot a gun?
a. Absolutely. Girls get special attention there =) Plus, they tend to be a way better shot then any of the guys!

q. Can I bring my own gun(s)?
a. Absolutely not. Licensed/registered or otherwise. This event is using the ranges guns and members of that ranges guns. Please leave all your own guns, silencers, ammo, grenades and other explosives at home please and thank you.

q. I would like to bring my whole family (not on the bike), is that possible?
a. Absolutely! Bring the whole fam damly! There is no age limit. Even YOUNG kids do great there! Cut up the foam ear plugs and test fit them on your young children before you come. Some of the ear muffs may not fit tightly on them (and some of the guns, i.e. 50BMG, are LOUD!!!)
