You have some very valid points there Byte. Good thing the range I frequent is owned privately and in the middle of nowhere.

I was there as well on Sunday. Not much has changed there in their protocols since the twins tried/did commit suicide that I could see.
jmg8550, I think I was a couple of stalls to your left as I noticed an M1A in the rack during the target changes.
It is getting expensive to shoot there. $24.50 to shoot for a couple of hours.
The range is close to the house for me to shoot at known distances, mostly comfortable (being a lefty in a righty world causes some grief), I was left alone and not spoken to the entire time I was there, and with the exception of getting some brass pinged off my bare legs from the guy next to me, I was able to enjoy my time and decompress and de-stress with some round banging.
That, and the fact I had just left BPTactical's place where he did some awesome work for me that I was very pleased with, made for a good Sunday for me (oh yeah, the wife left me alone all day!).
Oh well, my $.02.

Yup, I was the guy with the wood stocked M1A super match and the Savage Model 10 lefty. Were you the one with a couple AR's and an AK with some brown/tan stock parts? I know what you mean as far as being lefty. It can be difficult at times.
I was to his immediate left. All I had was my scoped AR.
