"Member Only Hour" Announcement

ATTENTION RANGE USA MEMBERS: Announcing our "Member Only Hour".

 

Beginning July 21, 2012, Range USA Members, (Recruit, Minute Man, Patriot, Founding Father and Lifetime Members) will have the opportunity to reserve lanes on Saturday mornings for one hour, 9am - 10am. (Over time, we may expand the Member Only Hour times) You can reserve your lane weeks in advance. If you need more than one lane, no problem, the member will receive their lane free and will pay regular rates for additional lanes (no discounts on lanes). When making reservations please include number of guests, type of target, and caliber of ammo (if needed). Breakfast will be available for you to purchase, just let us know how many will be eating, (breakfast will be served beginning at 8:30am), there will be FREE Coffee. When you arrive, simply check-in. You will know in advance which lane is yours. On your lane you'll find your target ready and ammo present. During this hour members will be able to fire .223 (our frangible ammo) and shotguns (no more waiting for Tuesday and Saturday evenings). To make your reservation please contact Mike Griffin via his email: [email protected]. This is a "first to reserve" program, by order of email, i.e., if 15 emails are received for the 14 lanes available, the first 14 by date and time will be given the reservations. You will be able to go on a wait list; if a lane becomes available you will be contacted. Members can reserve lanes every other weekend; this will allow more members to have the opportunity to reserve a lane. Space is limited so don't wait or procrastinate!

******Employment Opportunities******
Range Maintenance/Handyman
Range USA is currently accepting applications for a part-time employee to primarily perform maintenance on the range equipment - target retrievers and backstop. This would be a great opportunity for a recently retired mechanic, carpenter, maintenance worker, or general handyman - a great way to earn some extra "gun money", to help make ends meet, or to just stay busy and out of the house! Useful skills would be some electrical understanding, mechanical understanding, welding, and carpentry. All tools, equipment, and training will be provided. The hours are very flexible. Other than routine maintenance, there may be times when you are unexpectedly called in to repair broken equipment. Typical Range USA benefits would be available. We would love for you to join our family!

We are also hiring for management positions, but all new management must work their way up through the ranks. A fast-track program is available for those who qualify and are interested in a management position.

The job description includes, but is not limited to - customer service, cleaning, tracking and maintaining inventory, tracking sales, and basically providing outstanding service, with high quality products in a clean, comfortable environment. During slow periods, employees will be expected to perform light office work, marketing, and merchandising for Range USA. No experience is necessary. We will show you everything you will need to know.

Applicants need to be customer oriented, detail oriented, trustworthy, dependable, personable, and a quick learner with an obsession for cleanliness. Applicants also need to be able to follow directions to the letter and be able to work on their own as well as be able to work quickly in a very fast paced environment. The hours are flexible but you should be able to work at least three days a week. You do not need to be a firearms expert to work with us, you just need an outstanding attitude, a desire to learn, and the ability to always learn something new.

Mississippi Enhanced Permit

Chip Holland, Range USA Training Director, is certified for the Mississippi Enhanced Permit. And, Paul Brehm, Range USA Instructor, was recently certified to teach it, too.

 

The Mississippi gun permit does not require any training, because of this, there are very many restrictions on where a permit holder can legally carry.

 

Mississippi residents can apply for an Enhanced Permit once they have completed required training, OR if they have a current MS permit, they can take the training and get an endorsement on their current permit. Sign up for any permit class Chip Holland is teaching to receive this permit certificate for MS. Either way, the Enhanced Permit allows the permit holder to carry legally in far more places in Mississippi.

 

With the REGULAR GUN PERMIT it is A CRIME to carry a gun into:

Any police, sheriff, or Highway Patrol station or any prison or jail;

Any courthouse;

Any polling place;

Any public park;

Any school, college, university;

Any school, college, or professional sporting event;

Any establishment that serves liquor as their primary business (bar);

Any church or other place of worship.

 

With the ENHANCED GUN PERMIT, all of the restrictions ARE REMOVED, except:

Police, Sheriffs, or Highway Patrol stations, prisons, and jails; and courtrooms where court is in session.

The New FULL TACTICAL Menu Options from 1776

 

The term "Tactical" by definition means calculated, skillfully planned, and precise. That will be the new FULL TACTICAL. Everyone tries to be more health conscious, but in our busy lives, juggling family, work, church, and kids, it is often easier to drive through and grab a burger and fries, or worse yet, skip lunch all together, so you are ravenous when you get home. This is where the FULL TACTICAL menu comes into play.

 

Our new FULL TACTICAL menu features freshly prepared foods that are low in calories, low in carbs, and low in fat, BUT high in flavor! We understand that "fat is flavor", but raspberries have flavor and no fat. We will replace the fat with other flavors. This menu will offer Char Grilled Beef Kabobs with fresh, local garden vegetables, Cajun Grilled Chicken Breast Salad, and Balsamic Glazed Chicken with oven roasted tomatoes, just to name a few. These freshly prepared meals will not only satisfy your lunch time hunger, they will not weigh you down.

 

1776 will still offer all of your "Southern Favorites", too. The new FULL TACTICAL menu will be another option we will offer. With the steamy Memphis heat upon us, many of us choose to eat lighter. Plus, the Mid-south has some of the best fresh local produce in the United States! Keep on shooting and we'll see ya'll for lunch!
