What is the purpose of protecting ranges from lawsuit, when a judge simply says the law doesn't apply?
People do fire over the backstops, I’ve seen that happen.
Two miles though? Would you be able to hear the gunshot from that far away under these conditions. Forget about the bullet going that far.
that’s a great course, 12th hole has a few hazards...
What happens when somebody at the rifle range gets hit by a golf ball? In real life, golf balls are significantly harder to control than bullets.
The first question I would be asking is which one was there first, the gun range or the golf course?
If the range was there first, case dismissed the course is libel due to poor due diligence in making sure they were in a safe location.
If the golf course was there first, then you go to the range and see if it is even possible for a shot to get off range.
Any of these stories mentioned the caliber of the bullet yet?
IMHO, the order to halt rifle fire isn’t unreasonable.
They can still have pistol fire safely.
Unless the range owns the golf course and can maintain public safety, then they need to be held accountable for the damages caused by the rounds straying from their range.
Likewise, a golf course is also liable for damage caused by stray golf balls off their property.
IMHO, I’d be more worried if I were a pilot in a small plane using VFR approach rules.
Since when did drive-by shootings have to be in black neighborhoods?
Um... No. I smell a scam.
Prove the bullet came from that range, or STFU.
