    The area surrounding Liberty Range face hysterics from the time it was announced. What if, how come, why, what about the children, shit mentality. If you have just 1 I'm With Hillary or Bernie 2016 sticker in your area, GFL.
    Lead mitigation isn't really a problem. The fella and I discussed that and had a few solutions. Neighbors would actually be the biggest issue, though they aren't extreme liberals as we have discussed guns and such before.

    The idea is you don't say "hey I'm building a gun range". You have it designed but when building call it somrthing else, just as people with safe rooms and vaults often do. The issue is simply the legalities of shooting, even underground, as well as neighbors hearing it. Even with sound proofing it could be a problem. Get those two things figured out then it's simply money.

    Curious who you're talking to to say it isn't a problem ? You want an underground range, go for it. IF you ever sell your home, or there's an issue with a neighbor. Better have a good lawyer and very deep pockets. Those EPA fuktards get wind of a range, especially underground and they didn't have input.................

    Now if you do it, don't say anything to anyone. Rent a backhoe or find a forum member with one, pay them $$ do the install on a week day and call it good.

    I more just mean we talked about the lead issue way back when and there are some affordable solutions for a single lane private range that commercial ranges just don't have.
