This is not an anti-gun paper, Filippelli said. Its a pro lead-protection paper.
Riiigggghhhhttt....
So I guess the solution is to ban lead ammunition?
If it saves one child's life, isn't it worth it?
Yada, yada, yada...

That’s how they’re going to do it. Ban lead. ...........................
“Study: Gun range lead exposure poses significant health risk”
Especially if one is on the opposite end of the trigger pull.
I don’t go to my local indoor gun range in the winter. They have big air blowers blowing outside air in the shooters area which forces the air to exit the other end. Too damned cold in the winter.
The anti-gunners want us all dead anyway. Can’t they just leave us alone to die happily from lead poisoning?
Maybe the 5 μg/dL is ridiculously low, as is the need for a hazmat team to renovate a kitchen in an old house with lead paint.
Ludicrous.
Oh, it’s a problem until the government gets in trouble for it.
Then, it’s no big deal.
Good thing I wear my bullet-deflecting bracelets at all times!
Gun. Grabbers. Are. Relentless. And, EVIL!
I suppose it does if you are standing in front of the gun....
What a crock.....
I work around lots of lead shielding and have to deal with it on a regular basis. I also frequent my local gun range at least once a month. A few years ago I asked the Doc to do a heavy metals blood panel. Results: no lead exposure above the norm.
Most ranges I’ve been on have filtered ventilation systems
Notice, they didn’t actually do a study. They did a book report on other peoples studies. They didn’t check the methodology or the data gathered by the authors of the studies. They just googled up some articles then put their spin on it.
The whole lead poisoning canard was to explain or come up with excuses of why IQs are lower in the inner city.
It’s total bovine scat.
They took lead out of gas. I wonder how much lead is still in the soil by roadways. Mercury is a natural occurring element in my area and so is radon. Life is terminal so why listen to these nuts.
I need more lead in my diet so I will not ping while climbing the stairs.
It is a well-goooooooooooooooooooooogled paper.
Yet they fail to cite a single case where a person was poisoned from lead dust.
I should be a drooling imbecile by now. I shot for years at an indoor facility that would not allow jacketed bullets and that had terrible ventilation. After the range sessions if I blew my nose, the tissue would be black.
Outdoor ranges are the best....
But it does show that indoor ranges need to work on ventilation and filtering...
Some of this is worth paying attention to. I shower and change clothes after indoor range time, and at least wash hands and change top garment if shooting long time outdoors.
