Appreciate the update! I'm in Ponca, but looking forward to shooting there when I get in town.

I saw an article today about them opening a bar along with the range. Locked and Loaded.

I have no problem with this.
A problem person can come into the store after being at a bar. The staff should have training to handle this like any other range.

As I understand the concept of the new range, they will have conference/meeting areas as well as shooting areas?

 

[The Antichrome]

They should call it the BAR.

 

[dennishoddy]

This is not just a shooting range, but a shooting venue in its concept?

I see a facility as has been described as a place to gather, shoot, etc.

I think the owners need to check in and give us a synopsis of the bottom line of the business.

If its a country club type of business, I'm cool with that.

We still don't have a solid date, a little delay due to plumbing but working hard to get back on track. This week the 100 & 35 yard ranges are nearing completion, receiving their sound proofing and having the shooting stalls assembled. Some of the interior rooms are finishing up electrical and doors. The second floor steel support work is getting finished up. Facade work should start in a week or two.

We tested the simulator and minigun last week and they are working great, trying to close a deal to get an in-house Gatling gun. It's tough work but someone has to do it.....

I need a small test group to help rate the training programs on the simulator and get them tweeked, Jonathan, know anyone that might want to help with that?

Probably half this forum, including me lol.

Anyone have any updates on a grand opening?

 

[Jonathan Waits]

Nothing so far, I saw a picture a few weeks ago on their FB page, looks like the outside is painted up, so hopefully before the summer is out they will be able to open.

End of this month according to CHA https://www.facebook.com/pages/Cold-Hand-Arms-LLC/135472749834122

Is CHA moving from its present location and setting up its retail store inside Wilshire guns?

 

[Jonathan Waits]

Sounds like it, someone asked them if it was just OKMG or CHA also and they said everything is going over.

 

[Burk Cornelius]

[Jonathan Waits]
