...We have a pretty rough stairwell of RR Ties that are not easy to negociate either way in day-light, let alone in the dark....... .....
....Having the whole Night Shoot down in our Bays, make it east to get from one bay to the other, and all the targets are right there; No transporting stuff from lower to upper, and upper to lower,,!
........Unless you have a Tank search-light on your gun, many times it is impossible to see the target that you have to engage up on the upper range.........> and what the hell are you doing shooting at a target so far away from you, that you can not ID what or who it is??? .......Keep the whole night course down in our Bays, and keep us engaging targets at realistic ranges, that we would in practical night situations...(back yard, front yard not down the street)
.......Maybe more guys would shoot at night, if it was all in one spot.

Bob As far as I know all plans for night shoots are in 1 place, ie upper OR lower Logistically it's easier and more importantly safer.
And if we did do it on two ranges, you can use your captured Soviet tank search light!!

Bob god bless your heart. Did you just presume all night matches are split between KPDL and upper without actually asking anyone before you posted your grumpy rant? All night matches currently scheduled are on the KPDL range. Let’s ask before we just assume and make up stuff. ~Joe

On many occasions we ran night shoots on the upper, lower, kpdl range and would have used the cowboy range if we could have. Shooting out of vehicles, moving and parked, blacked out conditions. Cover, barriers. Sheet.
