Trashed shooting range under the gun

[m4bangr]

It would end up being filled with trash from people that are to cheep to pay for their own trash service.

Yeah, that thought occurred to me right after I posted, or it would be full of bullet holes, which is exactly what we don't need.

Crap. They would have this thing on my birthday. I'm supposed to go over to my folks that day, but I'll have to check on the timing to see if I can work this in.

I can do the 29th I have not been there so will need directions. I am familiar with rampart just not the shooting range you all are talking about.

I would not encourage them to leave a dumpster there it will get shot to hell I gaurentee it. :evil: morons know no bounds.

You guys pick the spot and we'll see you there.

[Marlin]

AFAIK, I should be able to make this one, The service change is done anyway. So pick a spot and a time and I'll be there.

[Hoser]

I should be there.

Are we to assume that the FS will close the range for the day or at least half a day?

Hey, how come under my screen name it says "paintball shooter"????
That's insulting!

It's probably a good idea.

Hey guys sorry for bieng late to respond to the first post.. just kinda lost this thread in all the other ones.

Just let me calrify, I always pick up after myself, i hate bieng a pig. I am actually a member of the Issak Walton Leuge and go shooting at the Pikes Peak Gun Club, they have a nice organized range, always bring paper targets and always hone my skills on getting nice tight groupings.

But see when i headed out to the rampart range i had targets in hand and when i pulled up, i basically said "WTF" to my buddy in the car.... i have in all honesty never seen so much junk in my entire life.... So we decided to leave the targets in the car... (since we didnt know what to pin em on) and started shooting at stuff. It's very interesting to see what your high power rifle will do to a: PC, car axel(or somthin like that), DVD Player, Construction worker hats(which was especially fun, cause it would jump around), beer kegs, and random other stuff.... All i was sayin is that i didnt mind the junk that much... i didnt contribute to it, i just added more holes to the existing hundreds. Now clean up with my small car, and only one other guy and trashbags... seemed well hopeless.

But i have come to a conclusion, i am not going to that range anymore, and sticking to the PPGC, and the WP meeting spot. Why may you ask, since i "liked" shooting at the junk their? I didnt feel particularly safe. The shooting lines are not all lined up and the short range pistol range, is about 20-30 feet infront of the medium range, and the medium is visisble from the long range shooting area.... even if no one points their gun in your direction you have a chance of getting shot, with all the metal and random stuff the chances of ricochets are very high, and i bet sooner or later somone will die from a ricochet. So i'm not going thier again.

Also cleanup? I dread the thought of that, some wanabee rambo walks up to the firing line not paying attention and starts to shoot at those moving trashbags down the range... ya not exactly the safest thing... Had i wanted to be filled full of lead i wolda joined the marines. hehe
