Fire At Angeles Shooting Range

[bear308]

Don't go up there today they are probably closed for the rest of the day. Don't know specifics, but thought I'd let everyone know before you spend $4.50 gas to get up there.

Aww man.

I hope it wasn't some knucklehead using steel ammo.

[Black Majik]

Thanks for the heads up. Dang, I wish it was only $4.50 to get up there.

They'll blame some guy with a .50. They always do...

sometimes it's they're fault, and they don't ALWAYS blame .50 cals.

You can always carpool.

I hope it's not too bad a fire. ASR's one of the last good ranges around here....

Thats not good not good at all. I remember one of the range officers said next time the fire department has to go up there they are going to close down the range. Well looks like they are going to be on my list of places to call tomorrow

That's what I remember hearing too, damn I hope it's not related to the range!

You would think they would have CDF do a controlled burn right at the start of fire season to prevent all of this.Thats what there doing over at Lytle Creek now and its working great and preventing out of control fires.

[scrat]

ok whats CDF. any how that really sucks i was planning on going either tomorrow or friday

[ColdSteel]

Bummer. Maybe the range should invest in a water wagon or a beat down pickup with a pallet tank and a trash pump. It's cheap insurance.

That's what the county does up here at 5 Dogs range.

you know what we can all say what we want. But the truth that brush out there has been looking very very dry. im sure as soon as it started it went up quick. i dont know if a water truck would do any good. but im sure it would have been worth a shot.

they just needed to clean it up. i agree with you guys. they need to clear out the brush maybe every april or may as soon as the rains stop. that or astro turf the whole hill lol
