This made me think that if you ever tried to sell the property you would have to disclose the range and it could be declared a hazardous waste site because of the lead and you would have to decontaminate it prior to the sale.Skiprr wrote:The tacticoolness factor would be lower, but there are at least two other options with variable bankroll requirements...and that can be moved if you ever sell the property.

Re: Personal gun range in a house?
When I was a kid, my dad set up a firing range in the basement of our house. He bought a "Detroit Bullet Trap." It may have been strong enough for shooting .38 Special [lead bullets], but we only shot .22LR. It worked out pretty well. We wouldn't shoot unless the house was empty. This was in the city limits, but at the time there probably weren't any laws against it.
