It's Muckos place as far as i know Dave, i just appear to have invited myself to shoot his gongs at his place all being well. It's great when a plan comes together

Yeah that would be a little rough, great to see you son, right now away and get the shuttle to the airport i'm away to smash gongs. Mind you could be character building for him lol

Should work out great for the 7th!

I believe there is one closer to you. I think there's a 100 yard one maybe awikerry? (Spelling, but the place between edgecume and Whakatane) I forget the exact place or name. But it's there somewhere. I was told about it looked into it but never went.

so not overly helpful but keep searching if you want close.

awakeri mate gotta b nzda member though,i used to live in whakatane and been there a few times taggin along with a mate,havent been there for years though, its up a long driveway next to jswaps yard

Yeah just check as the last time i was up seeing the guys at the quarry the cops were doing some serious damage at the range, not sure what the go would be but great to know there is another one that is closer than TECT

I had a talk with the guy that runs the awakeri club. Seems it is only a pistol club/range. But some of the members shoot AR15 rifles there. Must not have a 100m range. He didn't seem too interested in new members. Maybe just caught him on a bad day.
