Dear Sportsman:

RE: Shooting Range Locations

 I am seeking the assistance of sportsmen in a very important
project.  Last legislative session, with the strong efforts of NRA
members throughout California, we were able to stop a measure which
would have required the licensing of handgun owners and levied
significant new costs and obstacles when a handgun was purchased.  
This year, Senators Scott and Perata, as well as Assemblyman Kevin
Shelley, have introduced similar bills, including language that would
require licensees to undergo a handgun proficiency test (SB 52 and AB
35 respectively).  That of course would necessitate that an adequate
number of shooting ranges are available.  It has been quite a few
years since a thorough inventory of shooting ranges was compiled.  To
do so - I need your help.

 Attached you will find a "Range Information Survey Form". 
Please complete a form for your range (indoor and outdoor) and any
others in your area.  Please return the completed forms to my office.
 If you have any questions, please contact Anthony Tannehill
(atannehill@earthlink.net) or Tamara Anstess
(tanstess@mindspring.com) at the Sacramento NRA office.

 I would appreciate a quick turnaround on this project and
will need the information no later than January 31, 2001.  When all
the data is collected and analyzed, it will be posted on the
California NRA website to help direct members to local ranges.

Sincerely,



Ed Worley
CA State Liaison
