Quicksilver Posted October 28, 2009 Share Posted October 28, 2009 I'm just wondering if there is anywhere in the desert around Vegas where it is legal to target practice with your guns? Hopefully someone here in the know can post up what the laws are. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

b370 Posted October 28, 2009 Share Posted October 28, 2009 D street? :B KIDDING! Open season?????? WoooHooo!~ Quicksilver: What part of town are you in? NW: Head up the 95 to mile marker 103. Turn right and you will see where everyone shoots. That is where I take the wife and kids once or twice a month. NE: Off the 15, take the 93 turn off and head north. Approx 6 or 8 miles from I15 is a dirt road on the right. Follow in appox 1/2-3/4 of a mile and you will also see where everyone shoots The new public range is at the end of Decatur on the far north side of town.

Quicksilver Posted October 28, 2009 Author Share Posted October 28, 2009 Lamb and Bonanza one of my fav's. Hey, I grew up in that area. It wasn't so bad 20 years ago. But I definately wouldn't get caught dead in that area after dark now. At the public range do they let you shoot any type of weapon? Out here in Boulder City they don't let you shoot the big stuff at the range. :B Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
