Don't know why the slowness of work at this point of time. The main structures were ready about 3 or 4 months ago. Its only the finishing part which is taking time. For what ever reason, Im losing my patience as I have an unfired pistol waiting to be fired for the last 6 months.

[thomast1]

PVC is really a sucker!!! and some Police stations are Super Suckers when it comes to this one. Guess what ?? it sat in Police Station for a month, and then in transit for another month now!!!
God Bless Us!!!

What benefits can a NRAI member enjoy in KSRA? I am trying to find out which of the 2 Life memberships is more beneficial for a person like me who's hometown is Bangalore especially after the re-opening of KSRA as I am having my doubts about the changes which are going to be made with regards to the KSRA membership after reading Thomast1's post above. Advise or suggestions by the Gurus is much appreciated. Thanks!

hi Ticky,
i will check out and let you know about the NRAI memebers benefit at KSRA on Sunday, if someone at IFG doesnt answer it before that is. i myself wanted to check out the details..
my doubt was only with the issuance of membership of one year that comes post CRT.

Thanks Thomas. Need one more favour. I joined KSRA in Dec'08, but it closed down for renovation in March'09 and is yet to open. I came to know from another member who did the training along with me that such members who have not benefited a year's complimentary annual membership, will be granted an extension of one year. If you are going to KSRA this Sunday, could you please confirm this as well? Thanks in advance.

[thomast1]

sure Ticky,
Question 1) what beneift do NRAI members have at KSRA range?
Question 2)Will the members who joined in Dec 08 and did not use the complimentary membership get extended membership for an year now? else what options..

Have i framed them correct??

PS: not sure if the range would open as its the Samkranthi weekend.. so will let ou know if this is open

TenX Sir or anyone else on this forum who can help me with this?

When enquiring with NRAI, this was there response:

"Karnataka State Rifle Association is affiliated to us. We do not know what facilities they are providing to NRAI members."

Ticky,
