I hesitate to crow about the lack of gun laws here in the Great State, Live Free or Die, of New Hampshire but we really have it good as of now. No waiting periods, and everyone that is allowed to poses a firearm can carry consealed with no permit. Oh, and if you are over 17 years old you do not have to use your seatbelt, or wear a helmet if you are riding a Motorcycle. It is not up the the state to tell you that you have to be safe. And as an aside, a survey came out last year that the seat belt compliance rate in NH was better than in Massachusetts, which ha a seat belt law. Oh, and we do not have a sales or income tax here.

Andy you missed my whole point. The point is, why cater to a state that could care less about you and your hobby and sport. I don't know where you looked for hotels and eateries in PA, but I find hotels and places to eat with no problem in PA. Maybe they are no high enough class for you.

Tom that’s an unfair statement. My comment has nothing to do with “high enough class for me.” Where can that many people stay with hotels and food close enough to drive to after a long day especially if your spouse may want other amenities. I was talking about areas very close to the shooting venues and was tongue in cheek. I can drive to my house in 45 minutes from The Rock. I’m not defending New York. I live here because 30 years ago I moved back, I have a house I built and 100 acres and 20 employees. Leaving is much easier said than done especially with kids in school. Im pretty sure you’re not convincing everyone who goes to these shoots to avoid NY. Just isn’t going to happen because of the proximity.

We have three hotels 20 minutes from us in Tunkhannock. Easy to get to from The Rock and if you drive like me you can get there in under 20 minutes. BWAHAHAHA! Restaurants in Tunkhannock, Montrose and in between. Nothing fancy, just good eats. As for Jeff’s car wash, one in South Montrose, Montrose and Tunkhannock or just find a big puddle!! You guys can grill steak in the pavilion and play cards there too, or in The Grotto by Daryl’s stripper pole!! Just sayin’ for a friend. Free fresh eggs for breakfast too, you just have to cook ‘em up. I’ll take mine fried on rye toast with pepper Jack cheese, venison bacon, sriracha and mayo.

All the above comments are of course more pertinent to Hausmann's than the Rock which is further away from Vestal.

All of the above comments have nothing to do with the lead hunting ammo ban in New York.

I'd brace myself boys, unless there's a drastic turn around in the political atmosphere, I'd say there will be a Federal Lead Ban in the next ten years.
