Colonial Shooting Academy

Finally, Central Virginia is getting its own large, modern indoor range. Anyone who's visited the NRA range or the Blue Ridge Arsenal range in Northern Virginia knows that the options in Richmond have been poor. From what I've seen, the new Colonial Shooting Academy will change that. In addition to clean, modern facilities - no prefab tin building - the Colonial Shooting Academy will offer classes and possibly even competitive target shooting leagues.

Sanctimonious busybody Michael Bloomberg and his group "Mayors Against Illegal Guns", which harasses legitimate gun dealers and pays its "investigators" to commit illegal straw buyer felonies in states with Constitutional gun laws, has suffered yet another embarrassment. One of its core members - White Plains, NY mayor Adam Bradley - was arrested for assaulting his wife and then disobeying a protection order to stay away from her. From MSNBC, of all sources:
