Thread: Can I target shoot on your land? (Wellington)

They will show up as a group when I am already there, get annoyed at for being there because they expected the range to be empty and then start mouthing off under their breath with misogynistic bullshit and how "that little shit" is going to ruin their range day by shooting semi autos.
They are the only group of people I have problems with, most of the people that use the range are great but those old assholes seem to be there most days of the week just standing around talking and getting annoyed at people for actually shooting.




I'd pay $80 for a four hour booking, shoot for an hour and then leave. Four hours is the minimum booking but I don't have that much free time in one chunk to shoot on weekdays.



Deerstalkers




I try and sometimes do get the place to myself but I don't even mind sharing the range, it's just that one group of old assholes that I try to avoid but they always seem to be hanging out there like it's their social club house.

I have just joined the Hutt Valley deerstalkers this week, if it’s true it’s full of grumpy old men I should fit right in.
