There are more than two but you can shoot rifle and shotgun only . No handguns without a permit.

Which came first, the guns or the low crime rates?

Mathjak, have you ever shot at the two ranges on SI? I've considered joining in the past but have always been turned off by the amount of participation they require from members.

no , i basically used woohaven here in queens, coyne park in yonkers, nassau county range and when it was open the huntington town range.

woodhaven is members only but coyne and nassau county are open ranges.

i may look into freeport range when i retire and have more time. between work , the real estate business and photography i have little free time right now

Awesome day at the range today. Picked up to new firearms also. My father in law had a great time shooting for the first time in almost 40 years.

Can you join Woodhaven rod and gun club without owning any firearms and just rent theirs if they have that is?

Can you go to the ranges on Long Island and do this?
