Bridge Improvement!
Bays 2-5 Update!
Work was done on Bays 2-5 to clean it up. Great job John! Thank you for spear heading that! Check out the videos from Chuck.
Range Security
We are still getting intruders in the middle of the night. Please try to clean up your brass as much as possible. Perhaps invest in tools to make the clean up easier. The more we try to minimize the amount of brass on the ground, the less people will trespass seeking it. This helps with the overall security of the range.
We will post some suggestions on equipment to get to make cleanup easier. Remember brass is recycling for over $2.00/lb so this is a way to put some of that hard earned money back in your pocket to buy more ammo!
Full Members, are invited to spend the night at the range and camp.
Speaking of the Gate area, work was done on leveling the Main Gate to so that it is better aligned with the receiver lock. It no longer rubs with the receiver. Thank to the maintenance guys and Chris Phelps from RDP.
New Road Sign Proposal
Dear Members,
We are looking to update the main road sign for West End Gun Club and are reaching out to our membership for help.
The current sign has become worn over time and can no longer be properly cleaned, making it difficult to maintain the appearance we want for the club.
If you know of a reliable sign maker, or have worked with one you would recommend, please let us know. We are looking for a company that can produce a high-quality, durable outdoor sign suitable for our main entrance.
If you are in the sign business yourself, we would also welcome you to reach out.
Thank you for your help and for continuing to support improvements at the club.
Please reach out to myself at president@wegc.org if you are interested or have any leads.
Sincerely,
Thomas Tossonian
President
West End Gun Club
The maintenance team added a new windsock on the Upper Rifle Range and work was done diverting water under the road at the Range Shack.
Chuck and the maintenance team of John and Doug are killing it! Great job guys! The members much appreciate it!
Work was done other week on the 500-yd pad to make it more safer by smoothing out area and adding more signage. Please be careful up there! Don’t fall!
Snakes are out! This beauty was found on the Upper Range 325-yd location in shade on concrete shooting pad 0900 the other week.
We want to bring to everyone’s attention that the baffles on the upper range are not targets. Do not shoot them! Those are protective barriers to protect the investments we have made to the uppper range. They are not AR-500 rated steel. DO NOT SHOOT. Chuck counted over 29 impacts to that plate. We are working on surrounding those with railroad ties. Please use common sense when on the upper range. There are designated house steel, but when in doubt please don’t shoot and you can always ask the staff. Thank you.
The Range staff added a wind sock to the Main Range on the 50-yard line! DO NOT SHOOT IT! It’s there for everyone’s convenience or if we need to land a choppa on that open space!
Get into the Choppa!
We have hats for sale $25 each. Super mega thanks to our President Thomas Tossonian for getting these made! They are super high quality. Collect them all. You can purchase them at the Range Shack on the weekends with cash or check. During the weekday, go see Chuck!
We added a new page under the Range menu to chronicle the improvements made to the range. Head over to Range > Range Improvements or by clicking this link https://wegc.org/range-improvements/
We also added the Range Wifi page under the Members Only section. Members Only > Range Wifi or by clicking this link https://wegc.org/range-wifi/
You can find more information on Range Radio Communications page. If you have any questions, just reach out to the Webmaster.
A message from Range Master Chuck
A couple of days now we have had cars pull up to the main gate early in the morning and trespassers come into the range to pick up brass and also steal WEGC property. The Red flag on the upper range was stolen!
He has found brooms and other cleaning gear as well as markings on the ground. Unknown people entered club property and cleaned bays 6 through 11.
Please “If you stop feeding the pigeons the pigeons will stop coming”
Please clean up after yourselves on the range. That means pick up all the brass. If you have to bring in rake and dust pan to make it easier, then please do so. It would go a long way to help protect the investments we have made to the range.
