The trip today was 5 of us 2 girls 3 guys one of the guys just bought a new hi point and the girls needed some more practice. I had wanted everyone to come out to my place but plans where changed for convince to shoot at one of the guys parents small farm a good ways out of the city limits. We had permission and found a valley to shoot into with provided a much higher berm than the other suitable spot. We set up and things are going well until we start to hear shouts. Approximately 125 yards away at the fence line a irate man is scream at us that we cant shoot out here and treating to call the sheriff ( he gave us 5 minutes to stop or else he was going to call, not that it would have done him any good). We tried to calmly explain to the man (made even more difficult by the distance) that it was perfectly safe. We sit there a few minutes and discuss it between our selves while he stood at the fence quite. He eventually left and we did too since everyone was firmly out of the mood to continue. Of course no cops ever showed up as I can only assume they told him we were more than with in our rights.
Has anything like this ever happened to someone? We were shooting small pistols and some 12ga bird shot so it couldn't have been too noticeable in a part of town where shooting is common place. Im shocked someone had the guts to even come talk to 5 fairly well armed people.
