We have a house in TV and will be retiring next December. I plan on getting a Florida Instructor Permit when I get there. I'll get to shoot and teach others to shoot and maybe make a few $$ on th side.

Shooting is a skill that you need to keep up. I'll be the first to tell you some people shouldn't have guns. I see it everyday with our students. But, when seconds count, the police are only minutes away. So sometimes you need to take care of yourself.

I would like to know if there are any ranges in the area, a gun club maybe? I'd really like a range with a 100 to 500 yard rifle range, but I'm sure that's too much to hope for. I'll take a 100 yard rifle and 25 yard pistol range. Anyone know of anything?
