In my humble opinion people come to Ernie's to shoot. And shoot we do. Even if there were no vendors there it wouldn't stop me and most of the guys I know from coming and shooting targets and the breeze. If you want to shop go to the southern- there certainly isn't any decent shooting to be had there. And if you really want to blow your shooting budget, come to the "Rock" in July. Just enough crap for sale in the pavilion and more good targets than you can shake an 8 ga. at. I could care less if the VGC survives or not. And I don't even have an 8 ga to shake.
