Have you ever been hit by a piece of red hot lead or copper jacket at an indoor (or an outdoor, but probably less likely) range??? I have on 3 different instances at 2 different ranges, and have witnessed one more. Blood drawn 3 times of the 4 of the above....minor injuries.
Ever had a migraine for 3 days after shooting indoors, or worry about exposure to lead dust?
Ever had ringing ears for a day after, because you top of the line muffs are truly not enough protection from muzzle blast indoors? (I double up with plugs)
Many indoor places allow ARs and high powered rifles now, and im of the opinion that no matter what you cover your ears with, the shockwaves rattle your brain and cause trauma, i mean serious trauma, damn near shell shock. Im putting this out there to get people to think about this.... a guy with a 5" bbl Smith and Wesson .500 was next to me yesterday and im in some pain here. AR pistols in 5.56 just as bad as that IMO
Loooking at the walls, floor, ceiling and even the bench separators with bullet holes in them make you wonder "what the hell am i doing here"?
Stay safe.
