You can hear automatic weapons fire coming from the Coleman prison firing range.

It's a great hobby for the inmates to burn off a bit of steam and resentment that can build up inside the prison walls.

It's coming from the last home on Sumpter County Line Rd (Lake/Sumpter county line). They have a private firing range there, word has it that the property owners are the motorcycle club called the Kingsman. Happens quite frequently and yes, you will hear automatic weapons at times in the past. This is just east of Lake Deaton Plaza off RT44.

Any clue?

could be coming from village of deadwood

Just another “benefit” of south of 44. Turnpike noise , prison loud speaker announcements, gravel pit blasting ,and gunfire. gotta love it.

I live in Osceola too.

The guy to the east has a range on the property. He is a retired gun dealer. He does shoot automatic rifles...usually in the morning or evening.

People living to the east of me called the police and requested that they get back to them

The deputy did. He has his own range, with a berm, deputy said its safe and he can shoot on his own property

Actually, we can shoot here in the villages...youd have to be nuts to do it

Guns all around me, whether legal or not, does not make me feel safe.

There is a private gun club Behind the Dollar General right before Pennbrooke Fairways. Don't be alarmed it's been there for many years and it is perfectly legal

What a great hobby; being handed guns to shoot off steam and resentment. Where do I sign up? :eek: :rolleyes:

Actually, the gunfire is north of 44.

If you want to hear gunfire south of 44, you can go to Edna's and hear the people in Adamsville firing guns.

These outdoor ranges were here long before TV.......perhaps moving to a big city will make you feel much more safe.:wave:

Wish TV had a free outdoor range. Just sayin'.
