That's My Story and I'm Sticking To It. It Weren't Me.!! (Wink)
I personally know of a situation where a indoor range collected everyone's brass... and then changed their minds to "clean up your own brass" after some unfortunate happenings transpired.
A shooter (and a couple of his buddies) decided to collect their empty cases one day after shooting, but were told by the indoor range person that they couldn't because of the ranges "if it hits the floor, it's ours" policy.
Shortly thereafter the indoor range started to mysteriously find (sometimes to the tune of a hundred or so) empty, but primed handgun and rifle brass of numerous calibers scattered throughout the range.
Some days the above empty, but "primed brass" appeared, while other days it didn't. There wasn't any particular day, or time of day, that this brass mysteriously showed up.
After several occurrences of this nature, the range was finding itself having to spend some time (when the employees could be doing more constructive things) inspecting
the empty brass they collected at the end of the night, to insure that the questionable ones were eliminated.
Overnight it seemed like the the range policy of "if it hits the floor, it's ours" turned into "clean up your own brass because at closing time anything left on the floor is ours"!
It's amazing how a policy can be changed once management puts their mind to it.
