Holly bubblegum 1.5 weeks god damn lol good looking out

Yep, still $25 for the first firearm and $15 for each additional, no limit on the same transfer. With 4000+ BGC's to go through it does take a little time.

This is my go to FFL due to where they are located and price. All of my transfers have completed same day, even during this latest buying craze.

Realize you'd better be there early!

Take a look at the satellite picture to get an idea of what are the potential directions and any possible hazards.

It's not advised as there is a lot of litter from skeet shooting. It also poses a safety hazard as there may be shooters elsewhere that a non-linear muzzle direction could endanger. Best keep the skeet to Hillsboro Trap & Skeet Club - Home Page and the platforms at Sauvie Island...

I went up there couple months ago and there were to sheriffs there and told me we can shoot there no more cause people were dumping garbage and not picking up after themself so he said people could be traspasssed

I am a member of the YCSA. It is a very small club of 150 members. I am not an officer of the club but I am working with them on getting a "social media" officer or equivalent.

If you are wanting to get on the list for consideration, typically it takes about 2 years on average to become a member. Have to wait for someone to drop off and then wait your turn on the list.

Please PM for further questions.

SF-

Awesome bro thank you

Definitely old notices!

Just up there last week, and the week before, and the week before . . . anyways, you get the idea, not closed

Yes there are a couple of area's where you can shoot out to 100 yds. Safely.

Lot's of trees down as of today. Limited access.

I was there today. I did not find anything suitable for shooting a rifle. There are still a whole bunch of downed trees.

Thank you for taking the time.

I very much appreciate it!

It's just not practical, and there are plenty of other places to shoot. Use good judgement and a trip to the range becomes an adventure.

Being that these lanes are not designated as anything. They fall under the same rules and guidelines set by Oregon Department of Forestry for state forest lands. No reservations can be made or set up. They are as is, first come first serve basis.

If you are a business and or trainer looking to utilize these lanes for those purposes, please contact ODF Forest Grove office at 503-357-2191. Arrangements can be made only by ODF to gain permits to set up a class and or activities like such on these lanes. Same goes for any sort of organization that wishes to perform any large group activities among these recreational shooting lanes, such as clean ups.

Forget State forest hours specifically target shooting, but yes. During daylight.

Is normally rather busy on the weekends especially, and only 4 lanes.

Thanks for the update I'm going to try and go during the week so it's not as busy.

This is a public recreational shooting area. It is unmanned and open to the public 365 days a year from 30 minutes before sunrise to 30 minutes after sunset. If the area is to be closed for cleaning or maintenance it will be posted here as well as Oregon Department of Forestry's webpage otherwise it is open year round. We highly encourage using proper manufactured targets and that you pack in and pack out everything you bring.

You turn off the pavement onto a dirt road and drive right up to the first pit(less than a quarter mile). The second pit has a steep, rocky approach but is still passable

Thank you!

I'm not sure if he is in business anymore. @Kruel J might be able to shed some light on this for you.

Last I heard he is no longer in business, although it's been a while since I've spoke to him.

Dang. Do you guys know of any members making custom Kydex in the Portland area?

As @Flymph mentions.

I'd recommend holding onto them, until you have "a bunch". Then sell them/trade them on here in our reloading section (brass center fire only).

Or, if you all shoot "a bunch" now, or perhaps going forwards, you might consider getting into reloading your own.

If that may be an option for you all in the future, then just save them. They won't go bad & don't take up too much space (depending, obviously). Sort using gallon ziplocks in a 5 gallon bucket, to start.

I saved my brass for 3 years before I started reloading. Man was I happy with past me!

It is part of ORS Statute 530.050 of the rules on state forest lands that, "Remove from State Forest land all she'll casings, targets, and other debris resulting from the target shooting activity."

In other words, please pack in and pack out.

You can discard empty shell casings in the garbage or recycling bin if your disposal company allows. Selling them here or giving them away to a reloader is another great option. Keeping them doesn't hurt either if you believe you might be interested in reloading down the road.
