Thanks to the fine folks who work there, I now have an annual range pass to Coal Creek Armory… gratis.
Shiny!
And while the guy who arranged for this did not ask for anything in return, I figured that a little link-whoring might not hurt by way of thanks. In short, CCA offers the only air-conditioned indoor range in the Knoxville area (something I experienced myself); but also handgun carry permit and other training courses; extensive gunsmithing of various firearms, including AR-15s, 1911s, and shotguns; Class III products including suppressors; Boy Scount programs… oh, and an extensive collection of in-stock firearms, to boot.
Really, about the only thing I would significantly change about CCA is their range – I would love to have an indoor, air conditioned, rifle range, but such a thing does not exist in this area, sadly. I wonder how much such backstops would cost…
Anywise, thanks again, Coal Creek Armory! Maybe now my range times will be more frequent than once or twice a month…
(Oh, and do not worry – WizardPC and Shane both received passes as well, though I am not sure how often either will be able to use them.)
Nice! I see they have an H&K MP5 for rental, I need to give one of those a try someday even though H&K undoubtedly hates me and thinks I suck.
Well, if you ever manage to make it down here, we can definitely hit up the range and see what it is like!
Shoot me an email, so I can say “Hi!” next time I’m hanging out at CCA.
Done
