    My 22LR shoot is a covered range facility - we aren't postponing. The Auckland Shooting Range posted this on their facebook page:
    "Thank you to those that have registered for Auckland's largest shooting range!
    The proposed opening day has been postponed.
    We will be in touch soon via our Facebook page and email with an exact date in the near future.

    Yes I have registered, providing an email is part of that. And no,I haven’t had advice via email.

    As an aside, I was in a retail store that’s been going forever yesterday. The staff had heard “heard about “ the proposed range, but had had no contact whatsoever from the people involved.

    You’d think that as part of the marketing drive they’d put the word out through retailers. They’re asking for substantial amounts of money to be laid down, surely it’d help to cast the net to a wider group?.

    I've pre registered and no e-mails also messaged them on Face Book and from their web page as well as trying the phone # on the web page no more nothing. As for how to get there well good luck that info is no where to be seen. I still want this venture to get up and running but they are burning through their future goodwill fast. I sure wont be handing over any money until I can see signs of a plan and time lines.

    I had a chat with one of the people now involved with this range - I won't say much as it isn't my place... but I would advise be patient as it takes time, effort, work, funds, and a whole lot of support to get a a new range off the ground and they have plans for an awesome facility. I hope this endeavour gets the support it needs to make the dream a reality.

    Yes, communication needs to improve after a rough start and I expect it will very soon. Keep the faith!


    Of course I also agree with this statement

    Same here. Payment for membership on receipt of invoice is required in 7 days.
    I'm not paying jack until I see some facilities up and running.

    The CC option available next week ( ! ) will give some recourse should there be a problem.
