I feel they should not be pulling this with military or law enforcement personnel!
What do you folks think?
Movie expenses... like replacing your DVDs w/ BR? OUTA the city... OUTA OUTA OUTA!!Silly advice.
Then I'll have added movie expenses driving back INTO the city with the family!
Think, man!
You're my kind of girl!!... I mean if "queen" means "girl"... otherwise we could be good buddies.The thing is a cheap magnet on a stick from Harbor Freeight takes care of the mixing of brass and steel cased ammo plus steel cased ammo also has value. Now the practice of saying my brass cased ammo upon ejection belongs to the range is a nogo in my book. Any range that has that kind of policy will never get my business.
Now yes ranges to charge alot for ammo but...I recently moved to a new location, and on Saturday I went to the local indoor gun range and had 2 boxes of Tula trashcan steel-case ammo in .45 ACP to shoot. My old LGR lets me shoot this stuff, but this range has a brass only rule for carry-on ammo, so they would not let me shoot the steel-case ammo, which was all that I had brought with me. So in order to shoot, I was forced to pay 30 bucks for a single box of Fed Whitebox .45 ACP.
Now I have plenty of brass cased ammo so next time I shoot there, I'll be prepared, and I can still shoot the steel-case at my old range. But if I'm sweeping & tossing the steel-case hulls, and I keep my brass hulls if that's what I'm shooting, I don't understand this prohibition, other than the fact that I have to overpay for their ammo. It's bad enough when they gouge the general public like this, but I feel they should not be pulling this with military or law enforcement personnel!

EDIT: Got side-tracked for a few minutes. To add: I'm not saying we shouldn't offer some perks nor that they aren't deserved. I'm saying there's an atmosphere of abuse in the "system" that is widely accepted and "taught".
The new range by me has metal grates on the floors. Brass falls right through into a collection pit. I don't even get a chance to collect then if I was a reloader, which I am not.
To be fair, it's human nature and is evident in all systems.
They're not gouging, it's called capitalism. If folks wouldn't buy it, they'd lower their prices. Besides, it's like buying fishing tackle. Where do you think it will be cheaper; at WalMart or at the bait shop that sits on the edge of the lake 30 miles from town?I recently moved to a new location, and on Saturday I went to the local indoor gun range and had 2 boxes of Tula trashcan steel-case ammo in .45 ACP to shoot.

If you can, carry a drop cloth to put over the metal gates.The new range by me has metal grates on the floors. Brass falls right through into a collection pit. I don't even get a chance to collect then if I was a reloader, which I am not.
