Re: How do other clubs deal with members shooting everything up?

While Beaverbrook is a members-only range, security is pretty much an honor system affair. The gate and warming shack entrances are controlled by a common 4-digit pin code that changes every 12 months. All it takes is one member deciding to share their membership with friends & family and who knows how many folks are using the facility.
Improvement #1 I'd make to the club at this point would be the installation of an automatic gate with a keycard/PIN pad access mechanism to enter or leave the facility (same setup that most storage units use). Instead of a common shared access code each member should have their own unique code allowing time/date stamping of when their ID was used to enter or exit the facility.
If you implement regular walk through and equipment inspections to log time/date ranges when damage occurs you could begin to correlate which members are on site when things get shot to hell and have a list of legitimate suspects rather than the entire club membership.
