....... In Alaska.
Went mid day today, one other person on 100 yard rifle, 2-3 others on the 25 yard pistol range when I wandered down there after shooting the AR.
I could rub in the six 20+ inch rainbow I caught kayaking in the lake behind my house after the range, the 60-70 degree temps every day now, the 3 dozen grayling I caught 2 days ago, etc.....
I could rub it in that public land here means that it belongs to the public, so people can camp, 4x4, shoot, hunt, pretty much do whatever on 99% of the land. Haven't run across a single sign restricting anything on public land except the few and far between hunting or fishing reg posted somewhere.
....But I'm not the kinda guy to make people feel bad just because the are trapped in a communist state, so I'll just post a couple pics of the range near my house...... The totally free, public range with amazing scenery.

Gee, way to not rub it in...

Looks nice.

Got offered a job up there last year before oil tanked. Turned it down because it meant 3 weeks on the north slope and 1 week back home. We even looked at moving up there to limit travel time, but the money just didn't compensate for the lack of time at home. Close, because damn they pay well up there, but not really.

I love it up there. If it wasn't so cold and dark in the winter, I'd be up there again. But the spring through fall are awesome. That's a hard view to beat while shooting, enjoy

Mosquitos, long dark winters, republicans everywhere, milk cost 10 cents more a gallon.........
So many things said to keep the Californians out, and it's working. Some true, some just hype.

I can't imagine that they found some open land to build a range. [Sarcasm2]

So, a pubic range... Is it only for adolescents or are grown up allowed to shoot?[ROFL2]

That place sounds like it sucks. I'd never move to such a shiat hole.








Ok, now that all the Cali types have read the first sentence and moved on...booking a flight to check out said nirvana. [Coffee]

Alaska is the communist state, oil profits are directly distributed to all Alaskan residents.
