Uncased Firearms Not Allowed Onto Range as of 7/1/2011
Due to a few incidents of people handling firearms in the picnic table area, beginning July 1, 2011 ALL FIREARMS brought in from the parking lot must be either CASED or HOLSTERED. You will not be permitted to bring UNCASED FIREARMS onto the range. For those of you who use carts to transport your firearms (e.g. Cowboy Shoots), as long as the firearm is SECURED onto the cart, you CAN bring these firearms onto the range.
A trip to High Rock Shooting Association
By Dan DeBlasio, Staff Writer, Citizen’s News

Save Blue Trail Range!
From the Office of the Director of the Civilian Marksmanship Program (www.odcmp.com):
“The Blue Trail Range in Connecticut is under attack from a legal assault that appears to be intended to close this popular facility. An organization that is fighting to keep the range open for public use is asking for assistance and support. Save Blue Trail Range, Inc.’s mission is to raise funds for the purÂpose of paying the necessary legal, consulting, construction, environÂmental, public relations, and other costs associated with ensuring the conÂtinued daily operation of the Blue Trail Range. Blue Trail Range needs fiÂnancial assistance to continue to operate and remain open. A second lawÂsuit aimed at closing the range or restricting its activities has now been filed. One of Blue Trail Range’s attorney’s, Craig Fishbein, calls this a frivolous lawsuit, but expenses to defend against these suits are already over a quarter million dollars. Litigation will drive these costs even higher, possibly as high as one million dollars. The range needs the continued support and help of sportsmen who are concerned about keeping this maÂjor shooting sports facility in New England open.
