wdrb.comSince it won't open (keeps crashing on my phone) what makes this a first in Southern Indiana?

Just a fluff piece, advert disguised as a news story.

True enough.

Thank you.
I wonder if they realize that Evansville has had an indoor gun range for years.

I wondered. I got the article to load by opening outside of my reddit app. Emailed the author but doubt there will be a correction.

I've been at the range when cops show up. No thanks. They're usually not any better behaved than random yokels with ARs.

"People who drive cars have to get some type of training, and firearms are the same way," he said. "You don't want to endanger your family by not doing some type of training, doing the responsible thing." Except the part where you DON'T have to get any training to have a gun. Any attempt to mandate that training seems to cause a panic that the "guvmint is a'comin fer yer guns!" It seem perfectly reasonable to me to require someone who holds the power of life and death in their hands to have to learn the most basic skills on how to use it.

Nope. Because 226 years ago the founders saw the necessity in armed and regulated town militias after a period of war on our own soil it means anyone in 2017 can buy an AR and take potshots at bottles.
The difference between originalism and adaptivism couldn’t be starker than on an issue like guns.

people always seem to miss the "armed and regulated town militias" part as well. Regulated is right there!

We had Strictly Shooting's indoor range before they closed up shop.
It’s no surprise Strictly closed, since anyone that worked there was a complete knob.

Indoor ranges suck. Hello hearing loss even when doubled up with plugs and earmuffs.
Ever been two lanes down from Bubba and his chopped barrel .308? Not fun.

Roby's in Kokomo has one too.

Just an FYI, Evansville has had an indoor gun range for years.
I can't say I'm a fan of the store but Strictly Shooting has an indoor range and a pretty good selection of firearms that can be rented to shoot in said range.
Also Uncle Rudy's in Evansville and Right To Bear Arms in between Fort Branch and Haubstadt.
The new Top Gun store in Terre Haute also has an indoor range.
