    Ranges in Florida's West Coast

    Is anyone aware of shooting ranges in the Spring Hill/Weeki Wachi area of Forida. This is on Florida's west coast about an hour's drive north of Tampa. I am looking for indoor or outdoor, rifle or hand gun, public or private. Thanks for your help.

    WOW!! I Just Got New Eyes.

    Sorry. To make it clear, i went with the distance only prescription in both eyes. But, because the contact lenses are right on the eye, instead of an inch in front, like with glasses, they really correct the vision extremely well. I do not need reading glasses and i see perfectly in both...

    New to lever actions.. Help please.

    I have many bolt action and semi-auto rifles and was never interested in owning a lever action rifle. However, for some reason, I am now gaining an interest in them. When I think of lever action, I always think of 30-30, but I know they also come in pistol caliber. I do not currently hunt...

    Did the framers of our constitution envision the internet, or tv, or radio, or stupid politicians.

    STI and California

    Could my father-in-law, who has been a FL resident all his life, buy the gun and then gift it to his daughter (my wife) for Christmas? If he can do this, can he ship it to us in CA or do we have to transport it to CA ourselves?
