Ok. I see now what he calls a range.
Here's the deal: I don't think I want him owning guns AT ALL. He's mentally retarded.
Well, water does a really good job of stopping bullets!
could you imagine your backyard playground being on the other side of that?
In New Hampshire, the law is 300 feet from the neighboring dwelling, which works pretty well.
Quite a while back I met a guy at a gun show selling adapters for glocks. Can’t remember which part it was but its purpose was to allow water to flow through so the glock could be used underwater.
For sharks ya know.
I haven’t had a chance to watch the video, but at first glance this doesn’t look like a particularly good idea.
The Founding Fathers are saying from their graves , This bunch in America today are not our offspring. Someone must have been fishing in our pond."
In oklahoma city it is 600 feet from the nearest dwelling.
I know the area...the guy is freaking moron...
Lots are WAY too small...
One accidentally discharge could mean a dead kid...
He is just too damn cheap to go to several very nice ranges in the area...
You can also shoot silhouettes in your basement.
Amen.
When I read things like this I have second thoughts about moving out of this Hellhole of a State [CT]. I am lucky enough to have property that abuts State forest on one side [6000 Acres]and a 1000 acre Forestry Foundation Preserve adjoining the other side of my property. Both allow hunting [State land is Shotgun only] and the Forestry preserve you can use long rifles and Shotguns. Plus I have a excavated sandpit where I can shoot any time I want on my own property. I want to move away from this State but I don’t know if I would ever find a place where I could shoot as easy as I do now!
“Ive often thought about building a pistol range in my basement...”
Look at buying a couple of old metal shipping containers. Burying them end- to- end under your lot would give you a nice 20+ meter pistol range as well as a hurricane/tornado shelter. A bit of sound proofing and nobody would even know you’re there.
Funny.
There is a mythbuster episode where they show that even a .50 cal won't travel far at all in water. A few feet of water sucks all the power right out of it.
Attention ALL !!
The problem is this guy works for UPS - thus, “ NO COMMON SENSE “ is POUNDED in his head all day, every day.
This is my 35th year at that hell hol, er, um, place of business and one MUST check common sense at ‘da Guard Shack and reclaim it upon leaving. Yes, really. Common sense gets’ in the way of their making of money- BIG MONEY so it’s not allowed in ANY form while in their facility.
Snoot ;o)
Florida recently made it legal to hunt with suppressors. One thought I had about this guy was that he wanted to fast-track applications for suppressors.
‘
Idiots like this is why we end up with laws for everything.’
Like the county commissioners passing an ordinance prohibiting discharging a firearm within 400 yards of an occupied dwelling.
Happened in my county,
If you want a backyard gun range... go to the country and have it there, not in St.Pete!!
In Florida we don’t have basements. Wait we do, it’s called a SINKHOLE!!
it appears that the article has been written to create animosity against the young man who has not done anything wrong.
