Just wanted to say hello from New Market, Maryland. Really sort of found my love for firearms later in life. No family history or experience with guns. Had a shot gun for well over a decade for home defense, but didn't do much with it. Then a couple years back, just had a desire to get more experience and proficiency with firearms. Took my HQL and picked up my first handgun, a Sig P320. Since then have become more interested in learning and improving my skillset and understanding of firearms and their use.
I guess initially I was looking to learn more about local shooting ranges. Have been to The Machine Gun Nest. Mostly good experiences. Had one range officer there I wasn't a fan of, but I believe he is no longer there.
Last year, went on a camping trip to GreenRidge state forest park. They have a gun range, a very different experience, Outdoors, much longer range. At the time we visited, no range officer, only one other shooter and we just coordinated when to cease fire and walk down range to setup target. It was fun and, with the longer ranges, was better for rifles.
I suppose, with my limited experience, just looking for other ranges and places to shoot to get more experience.
