    Good Morning and Welcome to the BBS.


    It must be Great living in the USA where you are not generally restricted to owning Air Rifles below 12 ft/lb.


    We will be over in Florida for a few weeks starting this Saturday and hope to visit a few Indoor Gun Ranges to shoot some Smallbore Pistols and Rifles. Our 10 year old son can't wait.

    Would have liked to visit some outdoor ranges for some larger calibre longer distance shooting but can't seem to find any. Most of them require you to be members.
