As people find it more and more difficult to find a place to shoot, the pressure from anti-freedom types to close ranges increases.

If it exists....they tax it...Sometimes it’s called a “fee”...bottom line...they’re taking YOUR hard earned money and in most cases giving it away to “buy votes”.

I have a better idea. Abolish the tax and let the free market decide where and how many shooting ranges to build.

[School of Rational Thought]

Bull.

This legislation is just back door gun control.

I don’t go now to the range because it is too expensive. Making it more expensive is not going to change that.

Cut all “poll taxes” on second amendment purchases and maybe then I will go to the range. If more do so, the market will realize, hey I need to open up a range.

Gun control people want to increase “poll taxes” on ammunition and firearms, and now “proponents” want to increase “poll taxes” on ammunition and firearms?

This does not pass the smell test.

I would steer well clear of a federally funded gun range, especially when its going to be recording what you shoot, what you drive and knows where you live.

Frankly I have not used a public range since 1983.
