Looks like fun!

It WAS fun. And the food and fellowship wasn't bad either!

My suppressed AR was a hit. :mrgreen:

I enjoyed it and I wished the weather was a bit warmer for all not freeze their pinkies.

Are those tunnels through berms the rifles are being shot through? I can see the purpose but have never seen that before.

Yes. Each bench forced you to shoot through a short tunnel through a berm, at targets which were beyond that berm, in front of a second berm.

Bet that was noisy with the tunnel berm right in front and the shooting stations being enclosed like that.

It was, and you could feel the blast standing five feet behind them. But there is no question that the range is safe. There won't be any fliers causing lawsuits like there was at Garland Shooting Range.

I have observed some where you inserted the handgun or rifle barrel into the tunnel when firing. They cut down the noise a little.

I mentioned in the other thread but that looks like a nice range particularly the pully system for targets, waiting on ceasefires can be annoying

We should make a meet at 100yrd FGC indoor range where the target rails are motorized and there is no wind chill to worry about.

Last time, I waited 3-4 hrs. That is the case on the weekend. It is me I do have a privilege to reserve a lane 2-hrs ahead of time, but I do not take that opportunity. :rules: :rules: :banghead:
