Hello,
I'm not sure where to post this. If it doesn't belong here, or on this forum I apologize.
I'm just wondering, why would a gun club/range not allow human shaped targets ?
We have a real nice relatively new gun club here in Ashburn Va called Silver Eagle. They seem pretty laid back about most things, and a good place to go shoot relatively cheap.
But I found out today by accident that they don't allow human shaped targets. It makes no sense to me. They offer all types of self defense classes, scenario training etc.. The point of all of that is to be able to successfully defend yourself against a human ( in most cases ) target.
So what is the deal with not allowing human targets for practice ?
I really don't care for myself. My shooting is not to the point to care about much except being able to hit a 6" plate at 7 yards.
But it seems like a sellout to the PC gun hater crowd. Am I missing some ethical issue here ?
Thanks.
