Message: <blockquote data-quote="Fredkrueger100" data-source="post: 3094570" data-attributes="member: 24577">So yesterday evening I went out back with my wife and son to shoot.   Here is a little run down on where I live and the property I have.  I live out in the country.  It is an addition with 17 houses that are pretty far apart.  I live in the very back.  Behind me is a heavily wooded area for at least 600 yards before there is a house.  I also have a berm in my backyard that I shoot into.  Anyways, I shot about 120 rounds out of my G26 and my son shot a few mags from his ruger SR22.  Then he shot his rascal several times.  My wife just watched this time around.  As we were finishing up I went around to the garage to get something and when I came out of my fence I noticed three sheriffs deputies patrol cars parked in front of my driveway.  One of them got out and said helllo.  I responded and another one walked up.  He said that they received a call about someone shooting.  I told him that it was my son and I and he asked if he could see where I was shooting.  I said sure.  So we walked around to my backyard to see my berm.  I still had my target set up in front of it so they saw exactly where we were shooting.  He then continued to say that the “neighbors” were concerned I might hit the house behind me. I said that house is way away from me.  Plus I don’t shoot over my berm.  He then said well you could accidentally do it.  So I told him that I always follow the rules of safety and am always aware to not shoot over it.  He then proceeded to tell me that he understands why I bought the house and that I live in the county and he can’t do anything  to me because I wasn’t breaking any laws.  He was talking out of both sides of his mouth.  After that we talked a little bit about my guns and they apologized for bothering me and left.  I don’t know what neighbor of mine it was but have a feeling.  All I can say is kiss my rear because that isn’t gonna make me stop.  What is weird is that I have shot several times over the last year and have never heard anyone say or do anything.  Plus we hear other people shoot all the time.  It’s just the way it is.  If my neighbors don’t like it they can move to the city.  It had to be someone close because the deputies knew exactly where I lived.  So I think today I am gonna go home and shoot my AR for about an hour.  Lol. There always has to be at least one piece of crap in an addition that causes problems.  But I love where I live and they aren’t gonna ruin my happiness.</blockquote>
