I get that the fence port is to resrict the movement of the barrel so all shots go down the designated range, but why the vision obscuirng mesh above it?

If that mesh wasn't there, dum-dums would rest the barrel on top of the horizontal bar and shoot it whereever.

Normal MG ranges don't have these because you want troops training to sight in, but this looks like Japan or somewhere that restricts that, so this range is basically functional as no more than a mechanical test.

A 50 cal round on that specific range hit a locals car a few years back and they subsequently had to put that stupid thing in place because of the incident.

Ok, please do tell us all what range that is

The mesh has a grid reference painted on it, and the target is really a game of battleship.

It obscures the women and children that are being marched into the line of fire.

The shooter never knows the atrocities they have just committed.
