Roast Beef Dinner - UBC Fundraiser

BUY YOUR TICKETS HERE! OPEN TO THE PUBLIC!

https://hamiltonrg.org/Sys/Store/Products/389241

Come down and join us Saturday May 17th for our Roast Beef Dinner courtesy of UBC! Live music, great food & drinks and a fun time!

Tickets are $25 per person and can be purchased through Bob from UBC, at the bar on Friday nights or using the above link.

We have installed a key card access on Shed B to access Target Stands!

First and foremost, we'd like to thank Mark Corriveau for installing the new RFID reader on Pistol Shed B. With this new system, Pistol will still be selling access to the shed for the target program and we will be able to easily manage the pistol shed access electronically. This will be an effective way to enable your key card to enter the pistol house and now the target shed. We also added all the people who have already paid into the key card access for shed B. If  you have issues getting into the shed, please send Zach Martins, Pistol Co-Chair, a message and he will address the issue. 

Mark your calendars for Saturday May 31st for another deep sea fishing trip!

Trip will be 7AM to 3PM. Cost is $125 and it includes the boat trip, rod rental, tip for mates, prize pool, and lunch.

We will be sailing on Eastman’s out of Seabrook, NH. Boat sails promptly at 7AM so please arrive by 6:45AM. Feel free to bring snacks and non-alcoholic beverages but no alcoholic beverages are allowed as they are sold on the boat.

There will be a sign-up sheet at the Club at the bar along with envelope for money. If paying by check, please make it out to Pete, Fishing Chair.

We would like to thank everyone who participated in the Rifle Range work parties on 6/6, 6/8, and 6/9.  We had 22 individuals and a total of 116 work hours over the 3 days.

Some important information regarding the new reconfiguration of the Rifle Range - 

• New target rails were installed at the 150, 200, and 250 yard positions.  
• Berms 1 and 2 were dug out, rear of the range cleaned up, brush cut, and some debris removed. 
• The 150 yard position requires a much taller target stand due to the location of the berms.
• Please refrain from shooting the rails and/or shot blockers for the rails.
• Position the targets accordingly.  Please position steel targets away from the rails in a spot where the berm is present and rail is not.

As a friendly reminder when using the Campground and Race Track gates, please lock them when you are done. The gates are there to protect your club and keep the property use for members only.

Thank you for your understanding and cooperation!

It has been brought to our attention that someone is shooting broadheads at the outdoor targets. This is not allowed at the Club as the targets are not made for broadheads.

As a reminder, FIELD POINTS ONLY please!

For those of you who are not aware, Massachusetts politicians put forth HD 4420, “an act modernizing firearm laws.” This massive piece of legislation re-writes gun laws in the Commonwealth and imposes unprecedented gun-control. This far overreaching bill has created a massive public outcry from gun-owners and civil rights groups throughout Massachusetts.

The below bullet points are just some of the numerous provisions anti-gun politicians are proposing in this new bill:

• Mandates registration of all guns and feeding devices
• Mandates reporting of any modifications or new parts to a gun
• Mandates serializing all firearm parts
• Bans anyone under 21 from acquiring or carrying any semi-automatic rifle or shotgun
• Bans anyone under 15 taking part in shooting sports and training
•Bans all federally legally tax-stamped automatic firearms
• Gun bans on possessing any gun, loaded, or unloaded at any private property unless the owner has provided express consent or has posted signage allowing firearms on their property

Despite politicians hoping to quickly ram this legislation through, they have hit a procedural snag: lawmakers cannot agree which committee should be assigned to this terrible bill. This procedural issue will likely force them to wait until later this year to hold a hearing on the bill.

While this issue will likely slow down the bill’s progress, it is critical to remain in constant contact with lawmakers and request that they oppose this bill. Please become educated and spread the word to your family, friends and neighbors as this proposed bill is a direct infringement of our 2nd amendment. https://www.goal.org/gunban We must voice our concerns regarding HD 4420!
