Where is the Lebanon Police Department Range? Is it the same facility as the Boone County Sheriff's Dept range near the jail?

 

[jrm]

It is a separate range located on the south side of the jail.

Thank you! I did not know it existed. When did they build it?

 

[jrm]

Construction began about 4 years ago. It became operational last year. This is the first year for outside classes

$1,000.00 is real money, for sure, but might be a bargain depending on who is instructing and how many students are allowed to sign up. For a small class with great instruction, very reasonable.

We still have slots open for this class.

Is Jerrod B the instructor?

Ken Campbell said he would be out for this one. I cant remember if Jerrod said he will be at this class or not.

Holy Moley! That's great news! Jerrod is a fine teacher, but learning from Ken is a rare opportunity if you can't travel to Arizona.

If I wasn't laid off, having Ken there would motivate me to strongly consider joining the class. I completed Gunsite 123 with him the first time he offered it in cold weather (at my request) and afterward he said to me, "Never again." It was a great class, but even I got a little chilly during the lecture part of the low light shoot.

We have a heated range building to warm up in if it does get cold.

That's cool. I normally don't get cold, even when I'm in shorts and everyone else is in snowmobile suits. Ken slapped those chemical heater packs designed for sticking on your lower back on the bases of our necks and were good to go!

Do you have a restroom as well? That can be important for a significant number of students who don't do well with port-o-lets (like most women and big guy me).

 

[jrm]

We have a restroom and a classroom.

That's excellent news.

Do you have a schedule of other training that is open to the public yet?

 

[jrm]

All of our training I am bringing in is open to the public unless the trainer restricts it. So far for 2019 I have Gunsite coming back 4 times. Larry Vickers will be here in June for a 2 day carbine class. Glock will be here in April doing an armorer class and their Glock Operator class. If anyone wants to know about our classes send me a pm with your email and I will add you to my training list.

My daughters and I just took Gunsite 150 this past weekend and I will say Lebanon's Police range is a VERY nice facility. The classroom is new, good lighting, comfortable chairs and tables with refrigerator. Running water with a single bath room (causing a bit of wait time with a large class). The back side of the building (facing the firing berm) is covered with picnic tables for gear. Again, its a very nice facility with super easy access on/off 65.

Thanks,

Craig

Craig-
I am glad you guys had a good time. Thanks again for coming out and training at our range. We were at our max capacity with that group. But it was great seeing how many familes were in the class.

What type of equipment ie belt, vest, pouches would a person need?

 

[jrm]

A good stiff carry belt with a couple of AR mag pouches would be fine. You wouldn't need a chest rig for this class. You would also need a good handgun holster and a couple mag pouches.
