Hard to make money with a range when there is no ammo.

I am honestly amazed how BVP stayed in business with Modern Sportsman just a block away.

I used to shoot there in the winter for their pistol league.

Work started playing games with my schedule, and I stopped going up there. About 2 hour drives at night in the winter really started to get old, and having to depend on Mike's letting me shoot through one squad to finish seemed like I was abusing things, so I stopped.

I am not sure how its worth $1.5 M, but hopefully Roger can get it.

huh?, easy if you are also renting out space for the cell tower that's on the property.

Has anyone talked to Roger lately?

It's been more than a decade since I shot there regularly. He wasn't the youngest guy back then, doesn't seem unreasonable that he'd want to retire.

That would sure help the bottom line.

I think Roger is in his mid 70's and has wanted to sell for some time now.

I know that BVP has a loyal following of shooters and on certain days the parking lot looks full. I haven't shot there for a long time however. I do check in from time to time to see if anything has changed -- it hasn't.

My impression, formed over the past 20 years, is that BVP is not unfriendly to its clientele however it is not particularly friendly either. The staff has not changed in a long time so you know who I'm talking about.

There is a saying that goes: " In the land of the blind the one-eyed man is King " . As of 2018 when The Modern Sportsman arrived, the truth of that saying became abundantly clear.

Some will disagree, but everyone is entitled to their own opinion.
