Word on the street is the Resident Fee is going up substantially as is the out of town fee. If your not current with your range membership or miss a re-up there will also be a sign on fee and im hearing its not cheap. Just a heads up if you didn't know.
 
Yes they did went from $40.00 to $80.00 for Dartmouth and new bedford residents. And other residents went from $60.00 to $120.00. Seniors who had free member now have to pay $20.00. They are also charging a fee if you let your membership lapse. They are calling it a initiation fee.
I highly doubt they will make any improvements with the money they are charging. Hours vary depending upon the usual RO if he feels like staying or leaving.the rifle tables are falling apart and have holes in them and most things that are made of wood are rotted. They were charging reasonable membership fees considering the quality there. The only good things there is a 500 yard rifle range and the RO and staying open until 8:00 PM on Wednesday nights and you dont have to have a NRA or GOAL membership. Considering the rate increase there are far nicer ranges in the area for similar prices IMHO.

Sounds like a terrible deal lol

For a few bucks more you could join a club with no ro requirement and better hours of operation.
