Pocono Shooting Range
Monday, May 10, 2010
Shooting is fun for the whole family... kids too.
Minors (under 18) will be allowed to shoot small caliber pistols and rifles with a parent or guardian present on the range. Depending on the comfort level demonstrated with the small calibers, youth will be allowed to gradually move up. In general, Pennsylvania Law encourages youths to shoot and hunt (under adult supervision). Shooting is a wonderful family activity... just because anything that the family does together, is good for the family. This is a private range and only one person will shoot at a time. This is an ideal condition for beginners.
Everyone 18 and over is eligible as long as you are not a criminal or have criminal intent. I reserve the right to dismiss anyone who I find immature or otherwise dangerous.
An official photo ID will be required for purposes of record keeping. All personal information will be kept confidential.
Learn from an NRA Certified Pistol and Rifle Instructor.
No previous experience or licensing required. You will be trained by an NRA Certified Professional Instructor on a private range near Mt. Pocono, Pennsylvania.
* NYC residents are welcomed.

Black Powder Shooting
If you want the best value for your money, shooting large .44 caliber ball and cap revolvers and rifles is the way to go. These are the revolvers of the American Civil War era. These revolvers are in a class above modern day pistols because these were designed for use as assault weapons in Calvary charges. Modern pistols are intended as personal defense weapons.
$200 for two hours. $400 for 5 hours. This time includes instruction.
First I will train you with a conventional .22 pistol so that you learn to aim and shoot. Then we go to the big cowboy guns. Black Powder Revolvers are different then modern firearms, where bullet, propellant and primer are contained within a single casing know as a cartridge. With pre 1870 revolvers, black powder was poured loosely into each chamber of the revolver. A ball was then loaded into each chamber and then rammed down using a built in lever and plunger. Caps were then placed on the back of the cylinder. The hammer struck the caps which then set off the powder inside the cylinder propelling the ball out the muzzle.
Here is a short video detailing how to load and shoot a Black Powder Revolver.

It is my opinion that black powder shooting is a lot more fun than modern ammunition. It is also more economical and you will spend more time at the range shooting large caliber guns for less money. Within the two (or five) hour period you will have the opportunity to shoot both Revolver and Caplock Rifle. The Caplock Rifle is a lot more powerful and will shoot a greater distance accurately. I also have a Flintlock Rifle available for your Black Powder shooting experience if you choose the five hour option.

Why should you learn to use firearms???
Well, for one thing…it’s fun. But there is a much more profound reason... It is your patriotic duty.
The Bill of Rights' 2nd Amendment is the result of the Founding Fathers' wisdom and foresight. They were wary of the devolution that some consider inevitable in any truly free society. Their familiarity with history's civilizations (Greek, Roman, Byzantine) warned them that, in many cases, the greatest threat rises from within. They considered the overconcentration of power one such threat, as power limited to the few...could lead to tyranny over the many.
Given the establishment of a centralized government, the Founding fathers sought to mitigate this power by enabling the lawful arming of its citizenry. However, America is neither Greece nor Rome. Why must we assume that the U.S. will suffer a similar fate?
First, one must recognize that America is still a young society. Prior civilizations stood much longer, but all eventually fell. Thus, our 200+ year existence cannot be considered proof that this model will stand the test of time. More importantly, however, the Founding Fathers understood the need to hope for the best...but prepare for the worst. The Right to Bear Arms is a mechanism to deal with, or better yet to prevent, that worst-case scenario.
The Second Amendment is not about hunting and it is not about personal protection -- it is the fourth check and balance of this Republic. The Right to Bear Arms was specifically adopted so the people could protect themselves from a future tyranny. We know what the Founding Fathers had in mind when they gave us the Second Amendment because they told us in their own individual statements and we were also told in the Federalist Papers. The Federalist Papers consist of 85 essays outlining how the Federal Government would operate and why this type of government was the best choice for the United States of America. Within these essays we see the reasons why the Founding Fathers gave us the Second Amendment.
It should be noted that the Founding Fathers knew full well the benefits, and consequences, of the 2nd Amendment. In their own day, they witnessed firearms falling into the hands of criminals. Worse than that, they saw firearms falling into the hands of Indians through rouge merchants. In those days Indians were regarded as a threat similar to our current regard of gangs and drug cartels. One may argue that Indians posed an even greater threat, given the fact that Indians of that era were more widespread and better organized (eventually, the U.S. would see them united into a formidable force during the War of 1812, allied with Britain). Our elected leaders often do not realize how easy they have it only having to deal with petty gangs and drug cartels.
The Founding Fathers gave us the Second Amendment because they feared future tyrants more than armed criminals or Indians. It was the lesser of evils. For this reason, I have made it my goal to do my part to help train as many people as I can in the safe use of firearms and help them understand the Bill of Rights... so that we can guarantee that this free country stays a free country.
It is certain, and it has been ruled so by the Supreme Court of the United States that the Right to Bear Arms is an Individual Right.
DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA v. HELLER
In 2008, the Supreme Court of the United States , in a landmark decision, recognized an individual’s right to possess a firearm even if that possession is not related to participation in a militia.
This is very important! Critics of the Right to Bear Arms have argued that, due to the phrase “well regulated militia”, the freedoms associated with this Right are strictly defined, and limited in scope.
The Supreme Court’s decision, however, clarifies that the use of this phrase neither expands nor mitigates the boundaries of this Right. It also refers to the Anti-Federalist notion of the dangers of an overly powerful government disarming its citizens, a precursor to tyrannical rule.
Other highlights of this ruling are:
1.) the acknowledgement of language within state constitutions that recognized this Right, both before and after the adoption of the Second Amendment.
2.) the statement that prior rulings addressing this issue do not contradict or lessen this ruling
3.) the statement that laws instituting blind bans on handguns and/or requiring trigger-locks (within the context of self-defense) are unconstitutional.
