I know, right? safe spaces between, sunlight, breeze, seems like the perfect place to be open

 

[Bowhntr6pt]

Stupid and senseless.

 

[War-Buff]

Damn, that sucks. I think an outdoor range like this would be one of the safer places to go.

Please where did you see that notice. I have not been able to find it. Could an officer of the club please reply if this is so.

At least the pensacola rifle and pistol club is still open. I have not heard for the santa rosa shooting center.

This is a time when we want to make sure that our guns are properly sighted in for sure.

The lawyers probably got involved. Liability issues regarding exposure.

I found it on facebook https://www.facebook.com/search/top/?q=escambia river gun club&epa=SEARCH_BOX so it must be so.

I hope you got more ammo than that if you are expecting the zombie apocalypse.

Are those true black tips?

Shuush!

I'm a really good shot, no matter what my wife says!

For me rather than zombies I am more worried about thugs in stolen pickups or large SUVs crushing my front gate to loot. I want 30 caliber for that. It really depends on how hard things become and what the government and people decide to do if things really turnout badly.

Never had the . . ummmm . . "privilege" of using,or even remembering seeing them.
The 855's and similar were preferred if you were not using a 12 twist gun. If so the 193's were standard issue. Actually . . we were never really concerned about ammo. (If your bullet would go thru bamboo,that was good enough.) Even in the Stoners. Belted in 200 or 250 rd belts there were 8-12 M193 then one tracer.
The M60 door gunners belts were usually 16:1 tracer.
I'm really glad that there are so many members with more knowledge than me. It is great to still(at my advanced age)have the mental capacity to LEARN THINGS. --- SAWMAN
ADDED: Wondering in what year this black tip ammo was distributed to the ACTUAL front line troops ???
