OLD GUN RANGE ON W STREET

RUSTY · 02-09-2010, 04:05 PM

I have seen people working on the building that used to be a gun store and an indoor range on "W" street. Does anyone know if someone is reopening the range?

I am pretty sure there is another business in that building and has been for the past several years. Last I heard they were notplanning to re-open the gun range.

I was told there was people who were shooting at the mechanical systems and other places other than the Target Area.

as a result , some projectiles were exiting the building , thus creating a dangerous situation that would require more money to solve and supervise that would be worth the effort.

There is always those amongst us who are not fit to be amongst us !

The building is owned by John Martelli, of Martelli's Coffee on 31 Navy Blvd , great coffee by the way.

When John bought the building it was already gutted of anything useful for a gun range.

John is an inventor of sewing machines and sewing machine specialty parts.

He is building a show room for sales and a place where people can rent out long arm sewing machines by the hour for large quilting projects.

He will need to have the building rezoned in order to change the use of the building from small arms to long arms..........................................:doh
