I was thinking they was going to use the sand to level the area out then, topsoil over, followed by grass.  Too nice?

That makes too much sense.   ;D

Do other ranges have sand? I hope it doesn't become a problem after a rain and wet sand gets stuck to your shoes and ends up all over the bench areas. Or gusty winds blowing the sand around. I'm sure everyone knows what it's like to get sand blasted at the beach. Rifles and sand don't mix, except AK-47's of course.

Water plus sand equal quicksand.  It's a liberal plot to drown all practicing, law-abiding gun owners in quicksand!
The difference between theory and reality is that, in theory, there is no difference between theory and reality.

Kaneohe Gun Shop had more info on his site, about range being open to only 100 yards only.

"Breath Control" .... makes all the difference when shooting!

Oh how wonderful...looks like I won't be using the rifle range ever.

"Firing line point numbers 28 to 105 will be for bench shooting only"
"Firing line point numbers 16 to 27 will be for position (standing, sitting, or prone) only."

Wish there was more spaces for standing, sitting, prone.  12 seems too little, compared to the over 75 bench only places...

Plus what about numbers 1-15?

From telling people they are dumb asses because they don't need things to quit going to the rifle range because it's limited to 100yards.... :-\



Wonder if you can still set up clay pigeons on the backstop, they might pose to much of a ricochet risk though.  ::) ..and no buck shot? Do they think the shot is gonna go over the hill? Nor no 25 or 50 yard targets?....meh

I hope this changes.  I like to change positions when shooting, to include going from bench to prone especially for targets beyond the 100yard line.  But with all these changes will we ever be able to shoot beyond 100yards?

likelihood is that for the forseeable future, 100 yards only, no metal targets

It would have been nice if the folks making range decisions would have asked for input from the end users.
Or do they think we are mushrooms, to be kept in a closet and fed BS?

Aw...are you still mad because I called you out for being a tactical fan boy who wants a sawed off shotgun which has no application whatsoever aside from trying to impressing the girls and guys at the range?

You should really back track and read posts as to why I might have said I won't shoot at the rifle range before you make yourself look dumb again.

P.S. you still don't need that shit

What is a "tactical fan boy"? You keep using that term, come up with something better.

No, I don't wear plate carriers running around my house if that's your question.

And no, I don't need one nor do you need an AR. That's doesn't mean I wouldn't want one.

Fact is you sound like a bitch.
