>nearest outdoor range is a 45 minute drive
is it even worth buying a gun at this point? I really want to make the purchase but its probably just going to sit on a shelf.

Insulate your walls, hoard phone books and build your own indoor pistol range.
>>
>>33230032
How about the nearest indoor shooting range? Outdoor ranges are limited by zoning laws and the simple availability of open land. 45 minutes does not sound unusual for many large cities.

>>33230107
all of them require the use of lead-free ammo, which I'm going to guess is pretty damn expensive. Also I can't buy a handgun.
>>
>>33230096

this. When I lived in Cincinnati, I had an indoor pistol range in the basement. I put up drywall and insulation around the whole basement, even drywalling over the windows. same with the ceiling. it wasn't exactly "cheap" but if you do it yourself it's affordable. just buy some supplies and do a little at a time. within a year you can have the whole place set up.

I set up a "bullet trap" that was full of compacted dirt, about 4 feet thick. plenty to stop any pistol rounds.

>>33230118
Indoor ranges require lead free ammo? What the fuck state do you live in?

And no, it's not necessarily that much more expensive. Last time I saw a pack of the shit, it was only maybe 25% more expensive than regular FMJ lead ammo.

Florida, surprisingly.

I've seen this stuff sell for like $14-15 a box and even less, but the idea is that "lead free" ammo doesn't need to be the ultra expensive, solid copper projectile stuff. They make a lead substitute alloy out of a variety of different metals and it's relatively affordable.

>sport utility ammo
OK, I'll bite. The price on that stuff is good enough and I shoot enough steel plates that it might be cool to get in closer than 15 yards to my plates sometimes. What's the catch?
>>

>What's the catch?

It's extremely low recoil so it doesn't mimic self defense loads at all. With my 5" longslide FNS the slide doesn't lock back on the last shot because it's so under powered.

>I shoot enough steel plates that it might be cool to get in closer than 15 yards to my plates sometimes

I shoot steel plates with standard kacketed ball from 7 yards, worst I ever got was a bit of spall that feeling like a horsefly sting

Just wear your eyes and keep the shit eating grin to a minimum and it's all good from my experience

What did you do about ventilation and air filtration?
>>
>>33230339
If it's just you shooting and not an entire firing line you are not going to get sick from lead poisoning and go crazy over night.

Just open a window and place a box fan in it for a few hours when you are done.

>>33230321
There are still good places to live in America that are 90% white. You just need to remember that shitskins don't do well in the cold or the mountains. For example,
http://www.city-data.com/city/Frisco-Colorado.html
http://www.city-data.com/city/Jackson-Hole-Wyoming.html
Even some cities in warm climates are still relatively safe: http://www.city-data.com/city/Sedona-Arizona.html

What part of Florida is white? The Keys or the Pan handle? Because everywhere else is so overrun by spics and niggers that shit isn't funny. Actually, it's really sad and the gun ranges here kinda suck ass. There's like two or three ranges that do IPSC/IDPA/3 gun and they're all incredibly way out. I think the closest one is damn near an hour's drive from where I live, and the others are even further, like an hour fifteen or an hour and a half.

This place is a trap. HELP!!!

i am in the exact same situation as you and i own 8 guns and thousands of rounds.

just dont be such a bitch and drive out there.

i could go to the range in town but its indoors and they have rules about "shooting to fast".

this is how i do my thang.
>decide im going to the range on "x" day
>wake up early like maybe an hour or 30min before the sun rises
>get ready or already have my shit ready from the day before
>drive out to range
>shoot almost all day
>when everyone els leaves around 4pm i revert into my uberjew mode and start picking up all the brass i see for reloading or selling lol
>inb4 brass vulture
i dont feel shame because i dont ask people for the brass, i just wait until everyone leaves.

>>33230032
shoot on some public land or something dude

Melbourne beach florida 97.51% White, 0.09% Black, 0.12% Native American, 0.99% Asian, 0.24% from other races, and 1.05% from two or more races. Hispanic or Latino of any race were 2.28% of the population.

Do you want me to do all your thinking for you anon?
>>
>>33235475
"drywalling over" does not imply "removable block" you smarmy imbecile. Learn to grasp the english language before describing things then come back. Thanks
>>
>>33235490
Have you considered you are assuming I'm the same poster who was talking about his drywall technique?

There's more than one way to insulate sound.

But now that your being a little bitch I'm going to leave you to it, fuck off faggot retard ;)
