Continuous crying , making up stories and calling people names only equal one thing.I will continue to make my weekly trip to the range as I always have and absolutely nothing can stop me.You can try to divid us by saying its only few of us you have a problem with ,but we all know your true intentions .You try to have other believe your homes are riddled with bullet holes ,that you can’t go outside and your kids are in danger that is absurd ,any good mother or father would have moved long ago if it was true .Anyone can use google maps and see no homes anywhere near the range,this is all about traffic .I learned gun safety at that range from my grandfather and father.I have taught my kids gun safety at that range and will one day teach my grandkidds there also.You can spout off ” I’m gon’a sue or I’ll have my legal rep handle this” ,how many time has everyone heard that absurd sounding trash ,it scares no one.So keep on making up all the stuff you want,the county is done with you as they have just shown.It must suck to continually lose,but you must be used to it at this point in your life because you keep on and on and nothing has changed and nothing will and you just can’t seem to get it.So come on and post some more vitriol comments and see if anyone but the four or five of you care.I am now moving on ,as you should MOVE on and will not be responding anymore.STILL WINNING!!!

@Char. To clarify this is not a hunting range. In my opinion it isn’t even a muzzleloader range as the name would imply. The majority of weapons fired at this “muzzleloader” range are pistols and rifles. I can tell you are sincere and in no way do I mean to sound rude but for us there is no longer a win-win scenario
for us. If the members of the range are interested in being good neighbors than just do what they’ve already agreed to do. Make the improvements that will cut down the noise and eliminate bullets from leaving the range………and as far as for you “T” you are erml’s worst enemy and you don’t even realize it. Your arrogant and abusive attitude is typical of a small % of the members we’ve had to deal with over the years. Fortunately the majority of the erml’s members are courtious and respectful. Especially when we would pull them out of the ditches after they got stuck coming in and out of the old dirt road.

Well now, my feelings are hurt. Awful bad. Beacause no one from ERML’s representative’s have come by my home and offered to buy it. Unlike a few of my neighbors. If you really want to buy out “the bad seed”, come see me. I would love to sell you my home for the “right price”. Let’s talk…. T McK.

@Pensacola Ed

NOW that was a nice post. I like what YOU said about being a good neighbor.
Unfortonately it sounds like not every one that uses that hunting range
wants to be a good neighbor, other wise this would be a win-win situation
for the home owners since they got a NEW PAVED ROAD. Instead it
sounds like there are still some very scared home owners who do not
feel safe in their own yards……That is not a WIN-WIN situation, but
discussion might lead to solution.

How further could this be made SAFE and then that SAFETY BE
ENFORCED? Any other IDEA’S?

Well Ed you must have been delusional when you tried to read what I said becuase nothing you said has anything to do with what I said.But I do agree everyone must now work together to make this the best and safest range around.

Well then maybe some people need to go find out what the county and city
plans are for that road, I believe that is public information is it NOT?

If the road department of the county and the commissioners came up
with something stinky and didn’t tell the home owners that’s not very nice.

I still think GOOD LAWYERS should be consulted. The EPA thing was
done before the hunters owned it, so I would think there IS something
that can be done.

There are a lot of good lawyers out there in America WHO care about
people who work, pay taxes and contribute to society and have problems
of this sort by people who are supposed to be working hard on every-one’s
behalf, not just the select few. Some lawyers don’t like our lives being
ruined or the health of our children AND THAT is why their are EPA LAWS.
Some lawyers will take the case pro-bono. if they feel it is JUST.

It may take talking to several so don’t give up.

THIS IS AMERICA WE ALL HAVE RIGHTS!

T – I think you need a reality check, you’re sounding delusional. Anything the Range does MUST go through the Development Review Committee (DRC)Process. The head of the DRC previously sided with the neightbors by requiring riccochet eyebrows on the north-facing ranges, and “no-blue-sky baffles on the Ranges that ERML wanted that actually had them shooting east and west, toward the neighboring homes. Any development plans must comply with the NRA Range Source Book, and must also pass the “sniff” test of common sense. We have accepted the fact that the Gun Range is here to stay, as evidenced by the previous 20-year lease that we supported, and that improvements will be made. ERML just needs to remember that those improvements are not just about packing as many shooting stations as possible into this 20-acre parcel, but they are about reducing or removing the possibility of rounds escaping the range and making sure ERML is a good neighbor.

With all the new federal laws protecting gun ranges passed in the last few years,this range is fully protected now that it is out of the countys hands.The EPA can do nothing about lead on gun ranges that is the law.The complainers can keep fantasizing in their heads until they explode,but nothing can be done now.If you believe the county paid for the road and bridge for the few houses down there…..I wish I could see your face when you find out whats really going to happen down that nice new road .
