USPSA at Parabellum

[jakemartens]

Is the range really unusable? The match would be pretty low demand on ventilation compared to normal range use—only one shooter at a time with breaks between to score.

It was advised by the range owner that until it was fixed we wouldn’t want to hold a match.

Only one shooter at a time yes, but like ~40 shooters with four stages. With no ventilation, that ~5,000 rounds of smoke and lead dust would be unpleasant and hazardous.

When I called Parabellum yesterday for info on this. It sounded like I could hear shooting in the background. I didn't press the issue or inquire further.

The regular range is open. I shot there a few weeks ago.

They are shooting on the firing line, not downrange where we do, where I am told is the issue with the system.

I have shot in there recently and even from the firing line it gets pretty smokey. But I heard it should be fixed very soon

 

[2-Alpha]

Hope it’s fixed soon. I’m looking forward to some matches in January.

It’s what in the smoke/air that isn’t getting filtered…

The owner of Parabellum has an installer scheduled to replace the fans. As soon as that is completed and I get notice I will put a schedule together for Jan/Feb, maybe March.

I really want to join in but a 5:30 start time is hard to make happen from north Indy

I will get the link and get things planned out for some more dates
