Now that I am home, I might just have to price out how much it would cost to buy a bit of land, and construct my own 360 degree shoot house. Sure, it’ll cost a good bit, but that’s the most fun I’ve had with a gun. Here’s a video of Dave Hardy getting his run started:

Dave had a big shit eating grin on his face when he came out of the house, and said “That was fun!” On my first run through it, I got that adrenaline going and ended up popping a hostage. Second run I went through, shot it well, except for missing a target Todd had placed off to the side. The more experienced USPSA shooters managed to get it find it, and so did people that had to do a reload in that room. Caleb and I darted right by it.
Wouldn’t the cheapest way to build a 360 shoot house be to put it underground?
Has Caleb watched “Speed” to many times “Shoot the hostage”.
Hey if you liked this stuff , you will LOVE IDPA! Shooting on the move, shooting from cover, and dealing with non-threats is great. This past weekend where I shoot IDPA in Charlotte they using swinging non-threat targets. A good approximation of a real life situation because I though it simulated well what would happen if you were in a crowded situation with lots of people panicking or scurrying for cover. I tell ya Sebastian , you need to shoot IDPA- It’s the most fun you can have with your clothes on!
I think I will try IDPA, but from people who have shot both USPSA and IDPA, they seem to like USPSA better.
Hey to build this type of house what’s the rough estimate.
