Between classes, competitions, and ranges, there’s a lot of good stuff in southern Colorado for shooters. However, I’ve been to three classes with less than four students, including myself, so I started a Facebook group to try and spread awareness of different shooting events in the area. For any of you in CO, especially SoCo, please join and share amongst your friends. A stronger 2A community will only benefit all of us.

Looks like a good idea.
Just asked to join.
Same. Gyro, I’m assuming you are with NCRGC?Quote:

Good question. I believe we’re still under the 15 rd limit but heard something in November about a serious challenge to that.Quote:

I’ve actually not heard of such an organization... just guessing from the context.

I am in Denver metro area but don't really use social media. Is there any other way to participate? Haven't seen a lot come through this immediate area, at least when I've had free time/cash...
Not that I know of unfortunately. The next best thing is here but it’s far easier to share things and generate discussion on FB than any forum. I really didn’t want to do it because I don’t like posting much but I couldn’t think of a better way. I’m really only on FB for the groups. P&S has a ton plus two others. Otherwise I would’ve deleted it.Quote:

I’ll be watching for the return of 3-gun with interest.
Haven’t dipped my toe into it before, but I’m interested to have the opportunity.

Very little rifle though, apparently they’ll start incorporating more once the ranges are extended but for now the berms are only about 100m from the firing line.Quote:

I’m also not willing to support Facebook with my patronage or info, but am looking for training recommendations around Denver. Can Nephrology or anyone recommend some outfits worth looking into?
I’m not a big social media guy either. But there’s a very active eastern Colorado google group out there. The focus is primarily on the shooting sports but they forward info re training stuff in the region also.

The western Colorado section also has a newer email based group that is similar. They’re based out of the new CPW shooting facility in Cameo (near Grand Junction). They host a bunch of matches and classes and are aiming at larger national caliber matches and education in the future.

Nunn has big trainers fairly often. Northern Red and Tap-Rack Tactical both have upcoming events there.Quote:

Any idea how many would be interested?
