    Indoor Shooting Range

    Has anyone ever set up an indoor shooting range for their paintball guns?

    I did this last night and it worked.

    I doubled up an old bed sheet and attached it to the floor joists in my basement. (unfinished basement)

    Then, I tied the bottom corners to something so that he sheet was tight, but not too tight.

    I then stood back about 10 feet and shot into the sheet. The sheet absorbed the hits and the balls fell to the floor.

    I am now working on a collection system, but I could shoot the same 20 balls over and over. Not sure how many times because I ran out of air.

    It was fun...and sure does beat the heck out of dry firing all the time.

      i've chronoed some of my guns that way. if you don't want to worry about maby the mess of acidentally breakin a ball.
      check out phazerballs. they are 30something cents a pop, but they are reusable, and a soft rubber, glow in the dark, and bounce.

      As society and the problems that face it become more and more complex and machines become more and more intelligent, people will let machines make more of their decisions for them, simply because machine-made decisions will bring better results than man-made ones. Eventually a stage may be reached at which the decisions necessary to keep the system running will be so complex that human beings will be incapable of making them intelligently. At that stage the machines will be in effective control. People won't be able to just turn the machines off, because they will be so dependent on them that turning them off would amount to suicide

      sometimes I just freaking hate people. which means the next day I will love them for the sake of balance, but right now I will just concentrate on the hating. Hate hate hate. Blaaaarg! ;)

          Yep, I actually did that about a week ago. I took 2 saw horses, nailed on some boards and wala. I shot it, it hit the first sheet then dropped into another sheet where they all collected. I've got a aircompressor hooked up to my bushy so I get to shoot as much as I want
