Is This Normal?

[UhYeahWhatever]

I moved to Las Vegas for some time now, and finally visited one of their indoor shooting range with a friend who invited me. Where I moved from, my family reloaded our own ammo and shot pretty much outside at open ranges.

My question is this. At this particular range, they require you to use only ammo and targets sold by them. I can somewhat understand the ammo part since they don't want people using personal hot loads.......but this is what I find strange. They DO NOT allow you to practice head shots on the full silhouette!!!!! WTF? Is this normal?

Needless to say, I ain't going back there again.

That is ludacris! Did you ask for an explanation?

 

[UhYeahWhatever]

Nope,

Shot a total of 9 rounds.....2 to the chest, 1 to the head.......2 to the chest, 1 to the head....... 3 to the head. Guy came in and in a stern voice said "WE DON'T ALLOW HEAD SHOTS". I then said......."oh, really"......packed up and went out to car.

Oh, and they don't allow rapid fire either. You have to wait 2 seconds between shots!!!!!!!!

Surely, Lost Wages has other ranges you can check out.

What range is this? I might be going to vegas soon and I'd like to know.

What do you expect when you live in a state that re-elects Harry and is full of immigrants from California.

Have since found an approved outdoor "range" that's just a few miles south of the strip that I can go and shoot free of charge. Actually it's an open space with some small mountains as back stop.

Not sure the name of the gun range, but it's on the same street as the Spearmint Rhino (strip joint) <----- that much I do know

Last time I was at H&H, the counter guy was telling some guy who was renting a gun about the two-second interval and no head shots, unless you turn the target upside down. Must have something to do with the trolleys being shot up or ...

huh, if it's turned upside down, I'll be practicing shooting at their groin. :-)
