Nag-MCS kami kanina. We checked yung firing range ng Armscor and Jethro. Sadly, hindi namin sila nagustuhan. Mas maganda pa rin yung sa Stronghand. Probably, pinaka-maganda na indoor firing range sa Phils.

Checked Armscor's for rent guns, yung guns nila (Armscor brand) ang pinapa-rent. Sa Jethro nalimutan namin magtanong.

^Onga sis, kung malayo sa inyo lugi ka rin sa transpo talaga pero try mo check yung place. Maganda talaga sobra kaya nung nakita namin kanina yung Armscor and Jethro, disappointed talaga kami. Check mo photos nung firing range sa OurAwesomePlanet :)

May pinuntahan kame ni hubby last month na org na nag iinvite magpamember.  If you join them, libre na yung use ng range everytime may meeting.  Sa armscor marikina yung pinuntahan namin.  Grabe, ninenerbyos ako nung una.  Ok yung org kase may free training and seminar na on how to handle guns and proper decorum in a firing range.

^Hindi ako familiar sis sa mga street names haha!!! Nasa E-Rodriquez yung Stronghand.

^^Yung Armscor sa Marikina daw maganda. My brother has a friend who practices there at nagtuturo din. One of these days pupunta kami sa Marikina at tuturuan niya kami ng practical shooting.

^^^Dala ka rin ng government-issued ID :)

i tried jethro's last sat, mas mura kasi than stronghand (around Php 1,300 compared to 2k+). 4 kami so natry namin yung 9mm, 40, 45, and revolver 38. ang sarap! gusto ko mag member ;D mahirap lang puntahan yung place.

Dapat mag-target shooting lang ako today while yung brother ko mag-practical shooting (yung may takbo takbo na) pero sinali ako nung range officer hahaha So 4 kami ang tinuruan niya at ang saya saya! Hindi na ko babalik sa target shooting, yung titirahin mo lang yung board na nakatayo ka lang. Mas masaya yung tumatakbo talaga. I learned the twin tap, tamang tutok ng gun pag tumakbo, pag-sight pag sobrang layo na ng target, etc... Now, I need a belt, gun and magazine holster. Yun nalang kulang ko kasi I have my gun na. They're even encouraging me to join pero saka na pag naka-ilang practice na ko, first time ko lang kanina eh, ayaw ko naman sumali na yun palang first practice ko haha

Magpapa-member na rin kami kasi I badly need a PTT (permit to transpo) than a PTC (permit to carry) since malapit na election and gun ban. Kelangan kasi member ng gun club para sa application ng PTT.

^May mga naka-setup na challenges.

Usually kasi sa mga outdoor yung mga ganung setup since tatakbo ka. Practical kung may gun ka talaga plus syempre kelangan may license and permit to carry or permit to transport ka nung gun mo. I am not sure kung sa mga outdoor shooting range meron nagpapa-rent ng gun. Meron pa rin nagbabantay kasi hindi mo pwede basta basta kung saan lang itututok yung gun while running. Kahit saang shooting range, may nagbabantay talaga kahit gaano ka kagaling pumutok.

You can check videos sa YT, type mo lang "Philippine Shooting Competition". Lalabas dun yung mga videos na ganun ang setup, may mga challenges. May mga rules din kasi yung mga competition na yan, like may 3 division kung saan ka sasali. Production - stock yung gun mo, wala kang inayos, as is nung binili mo. Standard - may inayos ka sa gun mo. Open - eto na yung may mga compensator, sights, etc...

You can check more here: http://www.ppsa.org.ph/

This sport is really pricey. Kelangan may rig ka pa kasi (belt, gun and magazine holster), mas maigi kung may gun ka pa plus ikaw na rin bibili ng bullets mo especially if mag-practice ka outdoor, ear and eye protection, outfit, etc... Buti nga na-kumpleto ko na yung akin.

^Supportive kasi ang financier ko - tatay haha Pag makeup kasi eh grabe mag-object yun pero nung kinu-kumpleto ko ang rig ko, eh aba minsan tatawag pa na nasa Galleria siya (may gun stores din kasi dun) at sabi ano daw ang kelangan ko at bibilhin na niya. O diba haha

Yung older brother ko naman na shooting buddy ko eh nag-uupgrade ng baril niya so kung ano yung ipapalit niya, binibigay niya sa akin.

May gun show na pala sis sa July 19-limot ko na kung hanggang kelan. Basta sa Megatrade siya :)
