Fellow firearms friends, The Cypherpunks Shooting Club will meet this Sunday, 12/14/96, the day after the monthly Bay Area Cypherpunks Meeting. From now on, we will meet once a month, on the day after the monthly meeting. Anyone interested in firearms is encouraged to attend. You don't need to own a gun and you don't need to know how to operate one. Of course, if you do, all the better. Various firearms (rifles, handguns, shotguns) will be available. We will gladly provide safety and operations instructions. When: 2:00 pm 12/14/96 Where: United Sportsmen Rifle Range, Ebora Road, Concord, CA, 510-676-1963 How to get there: o From SF, Oakland, the North Bay: [Cross the bridge to the East Bay if applicable]. Take I580 to Highway 24 to WALNUT CREEK. In Walnut Creek, the 24 merges with I680. Follow I680 NORTH. Past Concord, take Highway 4 EAST. Drive for a few miles. Note the nuclear weapons depot on the right. Just past the depot, exit on WILLOW PASS ROAD. Make a LEFT on Willow Pass Road. Cross underneath the highway. At the end of the road, make a RIGHT. Drive 3/4 of a mile. United Sportsmen is the second dirt road on the LEFT. If you reached some homes, you went too far. o From the Peninsula: Take San Mateo Bridge to the East Bay. Go NORTH for a few miles. Take the freeway EAST (number?) to LIVERMORE. At the PLEASANTON interchange, take I680 NORTH. Follow the instructions above. Why we are meeting in the East Bay: Several regular participants are already meeting Sunday morning in Berkeley. What if it rains: The outdoor range is an all weather range. We will meet unless it really pours. Cost: $5 range fee + ammunition. $15 total should suffice for a first timer. What to bring: o Eye protection [mandatory]. Prescription and sunglasses meet the requirements, though I would advise you to use something safer. Chemistry lab glasses work great. o Ear protection [mandatory]. If needed, you can buy some foam type ear protection at the range. It costs less than $5. o Any firearm you might want to bring. Please RSVP if you plan to attend.
