Range Master and full time Security Guard.



Entrance to Paradise



Bullseye Pistol Range

27 target holders at 25yd & 50yd. 25yd are operated by a cable to all turn 90 degrees out of the way.









200yd, 300yd and 500yd range and the Pits.

200yd and 300yd




500yd



Let's take a ride to the Pits.

Pits for raising and lowering each of the eight targets. Heavy steel with counterweights to help hoist them up and down. The target holders are pretty good sized, I think they are 6 X 6. Concrete wall provides comfort to those working the Pits during matches.






Target numbers are above and well behind the targets on the other side of the Pits.



Now let's ride over to the Plinking Range.

This is where pretty much anything goes from machine guns to 50BMG or suppressed .22s... whatever you got... bring it to the Plinking range. Steel plate and any garbage you want to bring to shoot at....






Actually, this pic of the Plinking range shows things to be much cleaner than usual.



Let's ride over to the Competition Range. On the way we'll stop and get a soda at the facilities.



Competition range. Twenty cement shooting stations and about a half dozen wooden shooting stations and probably 50 feet more area for prone shooting. At 50yd and 100yd there are cement blocks in the ground with 1in holes on 12in centers for target stand legs, but you can bring stand alone targets and put them at any distance.





Behind the Competition range is an area for practical pistol and submachine gun competitions. We don't drive down the road unless the Competition Range is closed.




Here's the Training Range. Nice place to bring the kids away from the other ranges.
