these are all suggestions that i think every single range owner myself included would love to have...
however...
insurance is stupid high and rightfully so.... ( do you know how many people honestly think they know what they are doing and don't?)
how many bullet holes there are that i cant even imagine how they were able to shoot them there?
lighting i put in extremely expensive lighting just to see people shoot it out the same day...
ventilation a proper ventilation system runs minimum of 2 million (and that's with just filtered exhaust and pure un-heated / cold intake..
a actual closed hvac system that moves enough air to be effective is in the 7 to 10 million area... and that's for a small 10 lane 20 yard range.....
and cost... how are we supposed to drop costs? we charge people 15$ / hour to use the range... and every penny of that goes to the insurance... and people complain about that being high priced....
and drawing from the hip.... its not so much we don't think that you could do it safely its the fact that when someone (who cant do it safely sees you doing it) they want to do it.. and then i have to deal with a gsw and im not interested in doing that anymore...
as for my range we allow rapid fire with an exception... we tell you that "you can fire as fast as you can control your fire... you shoot my target holders, the floor, the walls, the ceilings we will be asking you to stop."
just my 2cents
