    Does anyone know a good range north west of LA? I'd like to "programme" some time at one with my kids.

        Vandenberg. I took a handgun safety class somewhere in/around Van Nuys, but I don't remember where.

          What are you shooting?

          .45 ACP - because shooting twice is just silly

            There is that infamous joke about hunting bears in Canada, could that offer any help? Unfortunately I can't provide any details, it is, let's say, not lounge compatible. :)

                      Ruger 10/22, a pearl handled, engraved Browning HP I inherited from my Dad and a S&W 357, but it's been so long since I checked I don't remember the model number (travelling now, so I can't check). I doubt there are any outdoor ranges nearby (Vandenburg is an hour+ away), and most indoor don't allow 5.56 unless they are military, in my experience, so I'm probably out of luck for the mini-14.

                          I only own one flack jacket and brain pan protector, I'd need more hardware than I own, plus the kids aren't bird trained yet, so I'd have to retrieve my own.

                            I don't want the kids getting gun shy, and when the first time involves people shooting back, that happens.

                              I appreciate the suppestion. I'm not that far NW of LA, just on the Ventura border. There used to be one in Northridge, but they seem to have stopped answering their phone. :sigh:

                                      I almost bought a Mini-14, but the siren call of the EBR penetrated my brain. Besides, I'm not a fan of Ruger (due to the company owner's politics and the people that evangelize the brand to the point of just plain pissing me off). I'm sure they make nice firearms, but they're's no such thing as a manufacturer that's "all that and a bag of chips" (to put it into a L.A. vernacular). :)

                                          Does anyone know a good range north west of LA? I'd like to "programme" some time at one with my kids.
