Okay, so I was recently laid off in Austin, TX and I just moved back home to San Antonio.
I hear on the radio that San Antonio, my hometown, finally has an INDOOR pistol range! Wow, Im excited, as we haven't had an indoor range in over 20 years. And then I go to their website, read the range rules, and a few things jump out at me as BS.
1. $365 annual fee. --> Seems a little high, but they've made a big investment, so I figured it's fair.
2. The "range master" will pour over and inspect all weapons before entering the range. --> Okay, a little draconian, but safety is key, I guess.
3. The DEAL breaker, I’ve got to buy THEIR ammo in MY guns. And they charge $12 a box for freakin 9mm. They lady on the phone says, ever so sweetly, “Members get a 20% discount!” Great, so I’ll be paying $9.50 a box for ammo I can get at for $4. WHAT ammo to they charge $12 a box for, you may ask? Good ole Winchester White box.
So, long story short, I’ll be sticking to my OUTDOOR ranges, where I don’t take it in the rear every time I shoot.
