New range in St Louis, MO
« on: June 14, 2010, 01:19:07 PM »
Just as a FYI, for those Handiaholics in or near St. Louis, MO.  There will be a new indoor range built in the next 4 months at the On Target store in Valley Park.  See the link for details.

Hi Dinny.  This Yooper feels sorry for you guys having to go to a range.  My range is there 24/7 right off my back porch......the shooting bench is about 25 yards away.  Yeah, things do get snow covered, and yes, I gotta look out for horses, dogs and chickens.  I have thought seriously about putting in an underground 100 yard range and a trap, skeet or sporting clays range above it, but I feel we don't have enough traffic here to make it pay.  If I ever get to St. Louis with a Handi, I'll check it out.

Thanks,

Pete

Pete,

If I ever get up to see my family's hunting lodge in Ralph, maybe I'll stop by and we can go out back and shoot. ;)

Dinny, it sounds like a plan.  I would really like to meet you.  I appreciate what you've done for our freedom.

Gotta luv an indoor range.  ;D
 It gives an oppertunity to bring multitudes of new people into the shooting sports, gun saftey classes for youth and new hunters, carry permit classes,,
