Default New guy from Philly!

I found this place a few weeks ago and have been quietly lurking while reading all of the fantastic information here. I just bought a Glock 19 after putting 100 rounds through each of a few different pistols. Overall, the Glock seemed like the best of the bunch for me.

Glad to be here, and looking forward to learning more!

Welcome to the PAFOA new guy, this is a great spot on the web. Philly is a great place with lots of great people. I'm from Bucks, shoot mostly at RAF in Bristol. Good choice with the Glock, good luck, enjoy the forum FNG...Mike45

FNG19 Welcome to the site.

If your aren't busy next Sun, the west side of the state is having a group shoot with over 40 members and guests. A few eastern brothers are joining the fun.

Someone once said "Go west young man"

Great bunch here.

Thanks for the greets, folks! I'm looking forward to the next group shoot here in Eastylvania. I'd love to make next weekend's shoot out in Westylvania, but already have plans. Definitely my loss... hopefully I can make the next one!

I'll check out the web page dgg9 posted (thanks for the URL!). Presently, I'm shooting at Classic Pistol. Seems like a great range in great condition, and very helpful/nice folks at the counter. It's been a really positive experience there.

CP is a great range. I used to be a member there. Are you closer to there than to Center City?

I'm a little closer to CP than the other range you posted, but the difference is only two or three miles. No big deal to get to either.

But a lot easier to park at CP, as you'll find out...
