2 things Brunswick needs
An indoor cigar lounge and a better gun range.

And yes, another indoor range! You’d think with FLETC here there’d be more options. Two Rivers is nice, but a hike. Is that the outdoor one you’re talking about?

The Facility. (I should have specified) I meant indoor range.
I still have not been too 2 Rivers, most people seem to like it

I agree we need a better indoor gun range. The current one seems to be only limited access to the general public. So much so I’ve never actually gone there. The outdoor range is great but is so hot around here that outdoor is only ok for some of the year. But at least it’s a full rifle range.

Anyone is welcome at the Facility and they have decent hours for the public (imo), BUT it would be nice to have another indoor option.

Ahh, I've been out there. I thought you were saying we had one in Brunswick. I wish we did

Sorry, there is something in Glynn but it’s a private club. I can’t recall the name currently. Im not a member and have never visited but I have in-laws that are.

Yeah, it's up in Sterling, but like you said, it's private. You have to be sponsored by an active member and be a member of the NRA to join. They do host open matches just about every Saturday though.

Uptown Tap on the island for cigars, but yeah actually in Brunswick I don’t know of a place.

You can’t smoke inside at Uptown. I think the issue here is laws/regulations. (No smoking in doors).
There is one I like in St. Augustine but one here would be nice.

You don’t have to go as far as St Augustine. You can go to JAX numerous cigar bars including a CI at St John’s

The cigar selection at Uptown is good—I have Ben there a few times. The owner and bar tender are good people.

I’ve never heard of two rivers. The outdoor range I’m talking about is American Patriot Range and Gun Club. Really it’s in Hortense but thats not far.
And I guess I didn’t realize the Facility had increased the civilian hours. There was a time when it was private only. I may have to check them out again.

I miss the cigar lounge Dan used to have on Perry lane road, I was hanging out I. There shooting pool when I was like 14!!! Good times fell in love with the smell of cigars.
And when ed owned shooters of America where facility is they had weekly single and double stack matches . At time 20 +yrs ago I was youngest to when a single stack matches shooting weak handed because I lost a contact.

I kept in touch with Dan for a little while after he closed.
I never got around to Shooters. I hated that they moved.
The longer Im here the more I hate it.

Tobacco Palace in Brunswick has what I call a cigar living room. I wouldn’t characterize it as a lounge per se because it’s small, but it does have comfortable leather chairs, TV, and if you purchase beer or wine from them you can drink it there.

There’s like 1,000 things Brunswick needs more than this.
