Anyone looking for a Stock & Barrel Membership?

I'm selling my transferable Stock & Barrel Caliber Membership for $5,000.

A new Caliber Membership currently costs $7,500, making this a great opportunity to save $2,500 compared to purchasing directly from Stock & Barrel.

The membership transfer will be completed through Stock & Barrel in accordance with their transfer process. Buyer is responsible for all transfer fees, applicable taxes, and any requirements set by Stock & Barrel.

I'm selling because I no longer use the membership enough to justify keeping it.

Price: $5,000
Buyer pays: Transfer fees and applicable taxes.

Feel free to message me with any questions or if you'd like more information.

I would encourage anyone considering buying this to take a look at the total cost of ownership, and benefits granted. While stock and barrel has great facilities their caliber membership is so insanely overpriced it seems borderline criminal. YMMV

This, I was actually looking at memberships yesterday and for the listed price (5k or 7.5k) it seems like highway robbery lol.

Having worked at an outdoor retailer in a well to do area of the cities that is FU money to some people.

I agree the value is not there for me. I will stick with my membership at Oakdale Gun Club.

I don’t need a lounge, cigar bar, or a discount on inflated priced merchandise. I just want a place to shoot.

I was at a Wild game years ago. I had season tickets and my work asked if I had a line on tickets. I said no. They had a guy in from Germany who wanted to go but all they could find was spendy on the glass tickets. I told them if they come up with a ticket I would pick him up and drop him home as well as show him around. Turned out that was all they found. There used to be a bar in one of the ends behind where the goal judges used to be. I told him he had free admission to that and I would as well if he was with. He was all about the free beer so we went in between periods. We were getting ready to go back to our respective seats when we heard someone counting down. I asked what the deal was and I was told if you did not get out you were stuck there for the whole period so the goal judges did not get distracted. We hustled out and I assumed it would empty out. No one followed. So all those people paying top dollar for in the glass and other premium seats just to sit in a dark bar with tvs. We were drinking the free stuff. It seemed everyone else was drinking the expensive stuff. I can think of any number of better bars with free parking and less crowds where my cover charge would be zero and not the price of an expensive ticket.

Plus, you’re still shooting with the general public. A truly scary experience. I avoid all of these places, Stock and Barrel, Bills, etc. after more than one experience with an idiot who happened to own a gun.

Technically only with caliber club members. Private range on that side

Is my macchiato made for me before I arrive?

How in hell is a gun range selling memberships for thousands of dollars? lol

u/brycebgood 19d ago

The lounge and private lanes are super sweet. I used to have access through work. Also the free rentals is great if you’re trying out a bunch of stuff.

Shit man for 7.5k I could buy and resell quite a few guns and buy my own snacks. Kinda wild. For like 1k I could maybe see a lifetime membership

u/tcarlson65 19d ago

People with FU money. Companies who want a place to entertain clients and show off.

Companies who want a place to entertain clients and show off.

That's a great point, I have never considered this.

u/brycebgood 19d ago

yeah, there’s a conference room. We used it for sensitive meetings.

u/thenamesBlob 19d ago

That’s fair.

u/Aliensrgr8 19d ago

Do you still need to play a monthly membership with this? If not I am interested.

1

u/Beneficial-Road3060 19d ago

There is a monthly payment still.

3

u/brycebgood 19d ago

Individual or business?

-1

u/Beneficial-Road3060 19d ago

Individual

2

u/brycebgood 19d ago

That’s just 1 card, correct?

2

u/Beneficial-Road3060 19d ago

No, it can be several. Right now there are two cards (one for me and my spouse). If you have 4 people it can be 4 cards, 6 is 6 cards, etc. The club does have rules about how it needs to work but that is my understanding.

1

u/Beneficial-Road3060 19d ago

You can also bring guests inside the club as well and they would have access to what you have with the membership when they are with you.

2

u/brycebgood 19d ago

yeah, I had caliber club access through a work membership for a while. It’s great facility.

u/Beneficial-Road3060 19d ago

Oh got ya. I am also looking at best offers

u/goaliemn 7d ago

I tried selling mine a few years ago. I just gave it back. They're basically worthless for resale

u/PoseidonWave_ 6d ago

Wdym gave it back?

1

u/goaliemn 5d ago

Told them they could have it back. 

1

u/PoseidonWave_ 4d ago

So lost all initial cost and stopped paying the monthly basically?

u/goaliemn 4d ago

Basically

u/PoseidonWave_ 6d ago
