    My gun range is closing

    Just found out that my gun range will be closing

    Looks like they have till the end of the weekend to raise $50k. It sucks finding out about this, Im at this range almost every weekend and its some of the nicest guys you will meet.

    That's pretty sad, but I must mention that $50k is very easy to raise from investors if the business is viable. Given that the money needed is for unpaid rent it makes me wonder if they can sustain operations moving forward or if they will be back in the same boat in a few months.

      I love the internet. We can all be beggars now, even business owners.

        True, but why bother with finding investors when you can just hold out an electronic tin cup and beg for the money you need?

          Sounds like a combination of mismanagement, irresponsibility, and inexperience.

            To be fair the sound of jingling bitcoins is sweet.

              Nothing that a little internet panhandling can't fix!

                      Not surprised that they're in trouble. With Poway Weapons and Gear range a few minutes away no one ever goes to SDFTC.

                        Sorry for your closing Range... I don't support my own gun range because they have no respect after our good friend resign due to his worker... In in Fresno/Clovis area and I'm more happier for the gun range close. My area has 2 indoor and one outdoor. Especially the outdoor range even though that good for rifles shooting but since we have BLM and the whole Sierra Mountain, all you can shoot.

                        However only two persons made a donation and it's only $200 lol wow. Sometime it's the better buddy.

                          There are some real suckers out there. No clue who would donate to this. The business is closing, you're just tossing money in a hole.

                          If you'd like to toss money in a hole, my gofundme is going to be live shortly. I've always wanted my own Bigfoot landscaper, and the first 50 people to donate $500 will get to use him for a full day.

                            If they don't get the other $49,800 by Monday's "funding" due date, will those two guys get their money back?
