Trust someone in california to do something like that.
Here in VA, if there isn't a shooting range......well, there's never not a shooting a range. Everyone has a window.

Please keep in mind that Califonia should really be about two or three different states. The folks in So Cal-generally speaking look at things differently than those in Nor Cal. In fact those in the Bay Area and LA area are generally politically much more left leaning than those in the rest of the state. Unfortunetly for the "red state" people, the majority of this fine state vote "blue" if they vote at all.

People shouldnt automatically assume that just because a city is trying to shut down a Gun Club ,its because the city hates guns.
Isnt it just as possible perhaps that the City wants that land, or the neighbors hate the noise?
on a side note to everyone who lives in other states: California really does suck....so i think you should all QUIT MOVING HERE!!! We're full!

I'd like to declare florida full too...
on topic this happend to the range i used to shoot at as a kid it was huge and had space for everything but it got force to close. A real reason was never given but a huge subdivsion poped up 2 years later. Its sad bucause there are many indoor ranges in the area but that was they out door range and i am still looking for a place to really shoot i love balck powder but have no real place to shoot around here. i sucks but its life
Except for the Automag in front, its usually the man behind the equipment that counts.

well, the "niegbors" moved in AFTER the gun club was there. so that just seems to be punishing the stupid with noise. and its not like they are as close as your nieghbor, theres buffer zones... its almost a fact. its because they are anti gunOriginally posted by Jack_DubiousPeople shouldnt automatically assume that just because a city is trying to shut down a Gun Club ,its because the city hates guns.

Well I did a little reading on the topic and it does seem that residents of the development can indeed hear the noise from the gun club. And it's not so much an opposition of guns in general as it is a concern for improving or maintaining property value.
This kind of thing happens all the time, stadiums and other public-use facilities are rezoned and moved away as residential expansion occurs. In a town that is trying to evolve (expand), this is almost matter-of-course.
The gun club uses a lot of space and is economically not a big mover. It will reduce the value of further developments in the area. Such is the nature of capitalism, the almighty dollar speaks. Sucks to be on the wrong end of it, eh?Comment

I am not saying the neighbors are right or wrong. i would personally support the gun club. I just dont see where its a proven "fact" that the neighbors are antigun.
I wouldnt want to live next to a strip club...but that doesnt make me anti stripper. Hell i love strippers more than guns!!

The complaining neighbors, as said earlier, moved in long after (decades) the range was operational. They signed disclosures when they purchased the house. It effected their property values before they owned the property. To complain now seems more than a little bit insincere.People shouldnt automatically assume that just because a city is trying to shut down a Gun Club ,its because the city hates guns.

As for LA County being anti-gun...with the possible exception of Cook Co, there aren't any more so.God gave you a soul.

So if the city wants your house it is alright for them to try and find a way to get you out?Originally posted by Jack_DubiousPeople shouldnt automatically assume that just because a city is trying to shut down a Gun Club ,its because the city hates guns.

The neigbors hate the noise? The people moved in next to a gun club then complained about the noise? Give me a break.
