The use of Mobile Shooting Ranges

[jerry187]

What do people think about the use of mobile shooting range for training classes and recertifications?

Without knowing what type of mobile range you're talking about, its hard to say.

Personally I don't see anything wrong with mobile ranges as long as they are as safe as a normal range, good backstop and such, PLUS legal in your area. I'm guessing you are thinking of using these ranges in out of city locations where shooting on provate land is authorized?

I have a small fleet of tractor trailor, and converted two of them into an indoor shooting range. They are 2 lane with savage range systems target units that rotate 90 degrees. the inside has been renforced with bullet proof steel on all sides and back stop. with all material installed they are 15 yards.

Sounds kind of neat, but I'd be careful with the backstop steel so that it's not hit by a bullet. Likely what would happen is the bullet will hit the steel and ricochet back at you.

Sounds like a cool setup though.

How about posting a few Pics so we can see your set up. I like the idea and it sounds like a winner.

Sounds like it's more economical than land purchase, build out, and zoning complications. So long as its safe, and not illegal as a student i'd have no problem using it. Do you have exhaust fans in it?
