Would they sell gun cleaning kits there? I need one for a .22 rifle. Has not been fired since 1982. Has been cleaned though but could use a more recent cleaning than the last one it got.

Have to go into Leesburg to get a 22. cleaning kit.

I'll go there every 6months to see if my auto-loaders function and if I can shoot 1.5" groups--no reason for a membership-for me--the Admiral is waiting for a female only ccw class and practice. Don't enjoy punching holes in paper

Would they have rifle practice there? And how about ammo?

And you can buy a gun cleaning kit at Walmart.

Have not fired it 36 years???? Might consider selling, giving it away, or turning it in to P.D. PLEASE

Why do you say that? Because the rifle is older or because the poster hasn’t shot lately?

I’ve shot at their Tampa location. They never checked the ammo I brought in which included reloads. I think it’s a policy that isn’t strictly enforced.

Many benchrest rifle shooters use their own ammo. I suppose if you bring it in with a factory box, instead of those plastic ammo boxes, no one will raise a question

When shooting bench rest (NBRSA) we always reloaded right there on the range for each new group.
I have no factory boxes and many hundreds of reloads, .44mag and .45 acp.
I'll just use the range for some factory 9mm and .380 practice now and then, but won't spend the money to get a membership.
