Don’t you believe it.
I refuse to patronize the largest, oldest, and most well known shooting range in my area because the let it be well known they are a “brown rifle” club. “Black rifles” are not welcome. They have enacted rules specifically designed to alienate and marginalize even full members of the club who favor military and/or fighting oriented firearms.
And if that “gator” in your handle means your are from or in Florida, you’ve probably heard of this range. At one time it had the largest membership in the entire country.
Grew up there and spent my formative years there. Spent most of the last 30+ years away traveling and living elsewhere. Still consider it home, but not the place I knew.
The range is not only alienating business, they also contribute to the division amongst those who should be standing shoulder to shoulder.
