shooting menifee /suncity area???

[SupermotoGlock]

On Saturday my cousin saw 4-5 police cars over there and a bunch of people were shooting. He was just driving by so he didn't see if anyone got tickets or arrested.

Apparently a stray bullet hit a horse on the other side of the hill from the Nichols area, I was told so expect higher police activity there. A few stray bullets and residents over the hill get all upset, if they don't like it they should move, I will continue to shoot there, police only give warnings so I will keep going there.

I can't tell if you're serious or not.

Yes a horse got hit, an RV, several windows, several homes, no people yet (that I know of). Yes expect higher police activity. Yes police only give warnings most the time. Joking about residents moving, and me still shooting there. I know this because I live on the other side of the hill !

Heritage Lakes

I live in Heritage Lakes very close to McCall and Briggs.
I frequently shoot at the "concrete pads" and have been for several years.
I have had SO stop by and talk but never more than that.
I always clean up my mess, and conduct myself well.
I have never had a problem with other shooters or LEO
I have even been told by LEO that it was ok to shoot there, I now
know that it is not ok and I have been shooting in an illegal area.

we have a Heritage Group FaceBook page. and one of our newest residents has taken upon herself to "shut down the illegal shooting"
Now mind you she is correct and well within her rights to do so.
It is just a shame that a little slice of life that for so many years has not been a problem is now the target, due to misuse and abuse.
i will miss the 2min. drive it took to get there and set up.

Something like this was only bound to happen there. I drove by this location the other day and the area around the concrete pads is littered with trash as well. In addition to shooting, people have been using that area as their personal landfill. I wouldn't be surprised to see signs posted around that location soon and more frequent patrols by Riverside Sheriff's deputies.


THE ONLY LEGAL PUBLIC SHOOTING AREAS IN THE WESTERN HALF OF THE COUNTY ARE STEELE PEAK AND BEE CANYON WHEN THEY AREN'T CLOSED FOR FIRE SEASON.

The area off Nichols Rd. and I-15 in Lake Elsinore is also not a legal shooting area. My friend was there a couple of weeks ago and was visited by deputies who told him to leave the area.

Re both areas, please refer to the threads in the CGSSA Official Clean up forum and the Meets, Ranges and Shoots forum for Calguns Official Clean ups/Shoots. Eat Dirt is the organizer for the scheduled clean ups at both areas, tho of course anyone can go up and clean the areas by themselves or with others.

There is an official Calguns clean up at Bee Cyn. on Jan. 7, at 8am. After we clean up at both areas we shoot in the canyons we clean (Bee Cyn.) and at Steele Peak (remember, it is illegal to shoot in the flat area at the bottom of the hill since it's too close to the road. The BLM rangers will cite).

We often also have food and drinks brought up by Eat Dirt's wife at the Bee Cyn clean up/shoot. The Steele Peak one frequently has a planned pot luck.

Drove by the pads yesterday. Saw a couple people out there shooting. Less than 2 minutes down the road there was an unmarked cop heading that way pretty quickly. Jut curious if anyone has had any issues shooting there lately?

DONT SHOOT THERE!

I was ticketed there on presidents weekend 2017 for illegal shooting. I was there with my twin 11 year old girls. I was also sited for having 2 15 round mags in my range bag from my grandfathers old pistol.

[Rink Rat]

Did they take you mags as well??

What were you sited for? Those magazines aren't illegal yet. Are you young? Did you incriminate yourself?

Be polite, but know your rights. "The Man" isn't there to be your friend, he is there to do his job and lawfully enforce local ordinances.

This area is shut down. The police claim that local residents complained, but really it looks like it was taken over by dirt bike riders. Every time the motocross guys are out there, the police are called and cite everyone. Save yourself the $100 ticket. It's done. It's a shame, too. I liked shooting 5 minutes from home.

It sucks but spending the money on gas and driving an hour and a half is better than paying a fine.

Just an update on this location for anyone that was still unsure about shooting here. No trespass signs have been placed around the perimeter. Also, a gate with no trespass signs affixed to it has been installed blocking the dirt path leading to the concrete pads where people had been target shooting at previously. This has all been done in the last month.

[Eat Dirt]

The concrete pads used to be a huge poultry ranch way back in the day... used to live on the other side of that hill in early '80's
