More room for me, I guess.....

Frankly, I laugh when someone says "Dey took mah moneyz and runned!" Do you realize how much the investors have tied up in that range? Does your buddy know the beaurocratic bullshit that the guys had to go through to get it all finalized? From backstops being held back by the NSA, to dealing with the Liberal gov't. The same assholes who cry "out of my cold, dead hands" are also the same ones who refuse to support any new ranges.

While I'm not happy that they raised the price, it may be a good thing. The gun world is full of shitheads who have no issues dropping $3k on a rifle, but a couple hundred bucks to shoot in an indoor range is enough to make them cry foul on CGN. Maybe a higher price will keep at least a few clowns away. Let the cheapskates shoot outside.

Anyway, the range is awesome. Computer controlled, motorized target backers are a far cry from walking out in the mud in Abbotsford. I brought out a few of my restricteds, and had a great 2 hours with a buddy. 1" groups at 4m, and 2" groups at 6m with the Jericho and S&W. The Ruger was a little off, but still fun to shoot.




The good news is that because I supported the range while they were going through their tough times, I now have 18 months of range use for a grand total of $325.
