ASC's pistol range scares me. Way too many idiots out there, and no barrier walls between shooters.
I've been muzzle swept too many times and haven't returned.
Watch out for the idiot with a jam, who will almost certainly point it left or right while trying (usually unsuccessfully) to clear it. The RO's will jump on them, but they can't be everywhere and it only takes a second or two for it to be very dangerous.

Re: Bad Experience at Top Gun - Houston
Their guns are way overpriced. Did you get them to come down on your purchases? I've never considered buying there because of their prices, so I don't even know if they negotiate at all. Glock 19's for $600 for example... ![Shocked :shock:](./images/smilies/icon_eek.gif)

Re: Bad Experience at Top Gun - Houston
I'll be there tomorrow around lunch time. It's all day Wednesday. For those of you who use Twitter, you can follow them on Twitter at @memorialshoot. You can see when they have deals, sales, etc.rusty86 wrote:That's where I was planning on trying next time I go.

I was thinking of going to Top Gun, but now I think I’ll just stick to Memorial Shooting Range. The half price range fee’s on Wednesday’s aren’t too bad either (when I can make it)

Re: Bad Experience at Top Gun - Houston
Memorial just went through a large personnel change, and the staff there now is the opposite of arrogant in my opinion. I get the impression that they still feel "new" and a little unsure of themselves at times, and as a result, they're very nice.Jusster wrote:Thanks for the heads up.

Re: Bad Experience at Top Gun - Houston
Agreed. I don't get the gun shop arrogance sometimes.texanron wrote:That is messed up Rusty. I wonder why they were so dead set in their belief that you chambered a .45 round instead of a .40. How much differently would this thread look if the guys behind the counter had dislodged the slug at no charge and commented that sometimes ammo manufactures have squib loads slip through.
I know they aren't paid very well, so maybe they're bitter? But many of them do it just for fun, and not their primary source of income... /tangent
Regardless, it amazes me.
And this attitude comes from the source of some of the dumbest comments I've ever heard from people regarding firearms. Even Mr. Pruitt (sp?) who I really like and respect for his attitude regarding the 2A and our rights, said one of the dumbest things I've ever heard. It seems to be a trait that when you get behind the counter, you lose your mind. lol
