    I remember while shooting at the outdoor Kentucky range - there was a person going around saying-

    I heard an AK 🧐 ~ who’s all shooting that AK- 4 7 ?
    I stopped shooting and looked at him as he passed by going to the next spot 😁 🤣

      I used to have a blm shooting range about 5 miles away from my house. It's been closed down for over 20+ years now because people wouldn't pick up their trash and shot up household appliances

        Eastwood got the 'assault rifle' correct.

        Irizarry (Fragetti) got it incorrect with 'assault weapon;' which, as we know, was a term made up by anti-gun forces.

        Now, the proper response is... Don't go away mad. Just... go away.

            Only time I ever went to a designated shooting area in Angeles National Forest, was when I was scavenging for replacement parts from old washing machines and TVs.

            Let's face it. There are no places within driving distance to Los Angeles where you can expect unsupervised idiots to target shoot, camp, or even picnic without making a mess of things. Most of the money collected by the "adventure passes" goes to removing trash and graffiti, and not improving picnic/camp facilities, or repairing trails.

              Hahaha, I use to go to Lyle Creek a lot. I was up there when a guy fired some type of homemade mortar setting the side of the mountain on fire. Another time some Hispanic chaps with short hair cuts pull up in their car, rolled down the windows, yelled “Pomona” then two on the passenger side shot out the windows at an old water heater in the wash. They then drove off without ever getting out of their car.

                Yeah, we stopped going in the early 80's when the thugs starting using it as the grounds to settle beefs.

                  An AK at the old Kentucky range in the 90s... might have been me 😆

                    Possibly a practice run for two new gang homies preparing for the real thing that evening.
