LOL!

This guy set up an amateurish, half *ssed BB gun target range in a crowded suburban neighborhood, and thinks he can freely fire off 9mm?

That kind of idiocy wouldn't even be allowed in the mostly rural county directly north, in the mostly rural area's, where the minimum private acreage is generally about 5-10 acre lots.

This area of Florida is almost entirely flatland, and sparsely wooded.Even when I lived way out in the country, my defensive rounds were special hollow points, lest a stray shot travel too far...
I wouldn't mind the noise disturbing my neighbor if I needed to defend myself, but neither one of us would appreciate it if the shots fired damaged his property, or God forbid, anyone in his house or yard!

While I'll admit it is not a setup I'd use, it also says in the article it's legal. The point it becomes anyone else's issue is if his crappy setup allows anything downrange, at which point he'll be wide open to a range of civil and criminal penalties.

Perhaps someone will give him a hand in setting up a somewhat safer trap.
