Smokin .50 1,907 Posted May 12, 2015 You make your wife ride in the trunk? Only if she misbehaves, lol! After 32 years of marriage, I just about got her all "broken-in", lol! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
son of sam 9 Posted May 12, 2015 If you buy enough ammo to last you an hour it will almost certainly surpass $50. Then parking is free. BPS ammo prices are fair, not the best. I have gone to the Concord, NC many times and even to Springfield, MO. BPS are always clean and friendly place in my experience. I have also gone to "The Walk" in AC many times with the wife for school shopping etc.. Not sure how close BPS is to the Walk but it sounds like a decent way to keep everyone happy. Nothing better for my nerves than sending a few hundred rounds down range. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

InFamous 311 Posted July 10, 2015 Got a P2P? grab a new toy and try it at the range HAHA that was the only option I thought of, but sadly I don't. Only other thing is to call em tomorrow and ask if they have any storage for handguns I would think... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Just a thought, you might find someone willing to loan you a pistol at the range (if they permit this, ie persons not in the same group). Never hurts to ask, some are anal about letting others try a new toy but you might find someone willing to if you cover ammo costs...I know it's not the same as bringing your own but worth a shot. I emailed BP and asked about rentals, they were looking into it but at the moment rentals are a no go Now if they offered rentals I love to burn up a few mags in a VP9 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I figured checking out the store while we were there would kill an hour or so, and they do free crafts for kids during the week. Need some activities to kill some downtime. A full week in AC for the third year in a row we're running out of things to do down there.

TheWind 17 Posted July 10, 2015 ACPD will love the influx of people with firearms.... it will be a first, they won't have criminal records though Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
InFamous 311 Posted July 11, 2015 Didn't want to start a separate thread but I was just checking out their website and noticed they offer free workshops, classes and kids crafts. That'll help pass some more time while there. Pretty cool and nice to see big retailers doing some things like that. Lowes offers similar craft/projects once a month for kids and other adult workshops like this so glad to see BPS does it too. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
planenut 60 Posted July 12, 2015 Anyone if the one they're building in Sayreville will have an indoor range? I tried looking at the Bass Pro Shop web site and it didn't tell me much. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
InFamous 311 Posted July 17, 2015 We visited yesterday for about 1.5/2hrs. Boats, ATVs, Camo, Guns galore! Kids also got to do a craft coloring turtle sun catchers. Really nice place! I took a few photos for those that haven't seen it yet. I actually didn't see any gun range, although I didn't go out of my way to look for it either since I couldn't shoot. Looking around upstairs by the firearms I didn't see anything posted as a range only a couple "Employee Only" doors. So who knows. I love me some redneck glassware! All the ammo/firearms/archery/hunting/etc is upstairs on one side. All the camo is on the other side. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ChrisA2 3 Posted July 18, 2015 Gun range is actually at the very corner upstairs near the Crossbow section. I live 20mins from AC, I used to go there every week lol. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
InFamous 311 Posted July 18, 2015 Gun range is actually at the very corner upstairs near the Crossbow section. I live 20mins from AC, I used to go there every week lol. I figured it would be around that area, just didn't see any signs indicating where it was. I only saw a couple doors that said employees only between the guns on the right and the archery on the left. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
concrete_boots 19 Posted December 20, 2015 Range is Still not open...they made errors in construction with the some things in the ceiling & hvac and have still not passed the necessary inspections needed to open it ..could still be another couple months 4 lanes, returns, nothing special... I wouldn't go out of my way to go shoot there but good time killer if the woman wants to shop, or nice to be able to buy something and shoot it right away.

9X19 125 Posted December 22, 2015 Do you guys honestly believe that there will not be a several hour wait just to use the stupid 4 port range? I doubt they will let you roam their store with a range bag or a backpack slung over your shoulder. Security will be pretty extreme in an AC based business like that. You sure will not want to leave your stuff locked up in the trunk of your car. Will they provide lockers? Doubt they will be free if they did...

concrete_boots 19 Posted December 27, 2015 On a weekend, wait..possible in season..store was empty a week before Christmas. I'm sure you will have to check your guns & colors at the door just like every other place in AC. Didn't see lockers but there would be room for a couple.. Not many auto break ins around tht area of the city..I highly doubt any 'city thugs' your thinking of will be looking to walk in front of how ever many cameras in the most populated area of the city and start looking into the back windows of the lifted F250 with the 'don't tread on me' sticker..jus sayin..
