Only if you're shooting at Knob Creek. ;-)
That machine gun shoot looks like fun! I might have to make a trip out there this October...

The safest shooting ranges in the world are in Switzerland, and they always have bars. They don't even limit the consumption to afterwards, either... they have a long history of having a glass of wine before shooting. It's actually a great way to relax and calm the ol' nerves, which can really boost scores.

There's a thread about them here:

Man, I was hoping for a bit less than the five grand initial fee. That is seriously like a country club though. Like I said, maybe I should start my own. I'd charge a lot less...like four grand to start up. :smile:

I can think of a lot of other things to spend that much money on. For instance...a bow hunting trip to Africa.

A friend of mine told me about a place like that in Southern California where he's been a few times. He said he was shooting at the range right next to the guy that played Al Bundy! I've been looking around on the internet, but can't find anything like that. I'm sure they're pretty private and expensive. Hey, it's got to be cheaper than golf and more fun to boot! I could be wrong about the cheaper part though...after visiting the fine gun room at Bass Pro.
For the right fee, I'll go with you, load your mags and carry a cooler of your beverage of choice.
Lol! I've already got that covered on the country outings. I have to load my own mags though.

Heh, I think that rough creek place is somewhere I would actually visit. If I'm fishing though...it's not for catch and release. I'm eating the fish as long as it's legal size.

I'm looking for the cigar lounge type of place...with guns. I know there's one around here somewhere, but I just haven't found it yet. Maybe I'll have to start my own.

Gun clubs?
