My local indoor range does not allow rapid fire but does allow double taps with a second or two intervals. I can live with that... On rapid fire it boils down to nothing more than safety. Hopefully anyone wanting to rapid fire can find a private defensive pistol class or better yet an outdoor range near by that allows this type of shooting. The closest outdoor range that allows this shooting for me is about an hour away, not bad.

Double taps and rapid fire can be very disconcerting to bullseye shooters. Safety is another concern. A squib load missed during a double tap can turn your handgun into a hand grenade. Happened to me once.Never trust anyone who doesn't trust you to own a gun.

Very true. A lot of uneducated shooters feel it is the local owners doing it when in reality it is the insurance carriers driving the boat.Originally posted by Wolffire99 View PostIn order for ranges to receive the discounted liability plan through the NRA or the NSSF they have to abide by certain rules, that being one.Wake Up...Grow Up...Show Up...Sit Up...Shut Up...Listen Up

Yeah, I was thinking insurance adjusters had a hand in this. I wanted to get apartment insurance with the company I have my car insurance with. I had a mongrel mix dog with long, think reddish blonde hair similar to a Chow, but the tongue and shape of the skull and jaw showed she was not a Chow. As soon as the adjuster that was eavesdropping on the conversation heard "Chow", he denied coverage because of their unpleasant behavior toward strangers. I tried to explain that I was just using that for illustrative purposes regarding her coat. But NO GO!Originally posted by Wolffire99 View PostIn order for ranges to receive the discounted liability plan through the NRA or the NSSF they have to abide by certain rules, that being one.Very interesting...
