      Well, now it’s come down to the HOA. Apparently, I will have to have an engineer come out and inspect to make sure a berm wouldn’t affect stormwater runoff. Always something. Never cut and dry. That will of course cost an arm and a leg.

      Another great resource is the department of energy’s info here http://www.hss.energy.gov But, it refers to full size ranges.

      Okaloosa Firearms Ordinance

      I appreciate it. My backstop as of now consists of logs and tires. It stops everything I throw at it. 45-70, 6.5 Grendel, etc. I will be going overkill with sandbags as soon as I get them and fill and stack them. As far as I understand, as long as the projectile is being stopped it’s “proper.”...

      I just spoke with the Okaloosa County Sheriff’s office, and they say I am good as long as there is a proper backstop

      The states attorney already went after the county for contradictory ordinances. Everything was repealed. The county told me I am ok as long as I am in compliance with the law. The governor signed legislation into law stating “local government can not make any laws that contradict the states laws.”

      I live far enough away from that guy. About half a mile. He works during the day. He is just a dick. In previous posts I said he does it to everyone. I can not put up a wall. It’s against HOA rules. Who said anything about defending myself against him in that way? I will do it the proper way...

      Okaloosa Firearms Ordinance

      The law has been thoroughly researched. Also, it has been cited to this guy. The county confirmed what I already know. That it is in fact not illegal to have a personal shooting range. I could care less if he is butt hurt. I have witnesses to him trespassing, harassing and threatening me. I...

      Okaloosa Firearms Ordinance

      I have dealt with corrupt and ignorant (usually self-aggrandizing ignorance) cops my whole life. One thing you never do is threaten them with violence. I always use the law against them. Fight them with their own words. Let them know I won’t be pushed around and bullied. Then spread the correct...

      Okaloosa Firearms Ordinance

      I have found absolutely nothing in Codes that he could violate me for. Everything else I find says firearms ordinances were repealed due to not being inline with state law. I can prove that I am shooting safely with no risk to people or property, and on more then one acre so I’m good within...

      Okaloosa Firearms Ordinance

      Yeah I was referring to the range as well. He does it to everyone. He’s proud to have shut down other people’s ranges. He mentioned this at one of the HOA meetings. Also said he will pull people over for passing him going down our street. He is already confrontational. Speed limit is 25, he will...

      He does this to everyone. He was not responding he just thought, “ hey! Fire trucks!”” I must show up on my off time and be an ass!”

      Okaloosa Firearms Ordinance

      More than one acre for everyone here. Yeah he’s a deputy. Lives here in my neighborhood. I had an emergency that required the fire department to respond. He just threw on his badge, gun and “sherif” t-shirt and popped up. After several attempts of him stepping out of his job description and...

      I’d rather that they fire him. They wouldn’t send him back to school. He’s been on the force a long time.

      That’s all I could find. Of course I follow the noise ordinance and don’t shoot during those times. And usually people aren’t home when I shoot.
