I think I shot Bill's Robbinsdale once, but it was the rifle range which was pretty empty, so I was okay. Only other time was Bill's North, and I was shooting my Smith 500. Had three young guys next to me, and thanks to my electronic muffs I could hear mags being loaded and slides snapping shut behind me, which I wasn't too thrilled about. However, I didn't feel like going postal about the whole thing, and figured that I could soak up a 9mm bullet somewhere in my large carcass and have a good chance of living, while they had a zero chance catching a 325 grain 50 cal JHP doing 1600 or so. I almost turned around to explain to them what would happen if I caught a bullet in the back, and then thought better of it as this could be construed as "initiating the conflict" later in court. That particular part of the law is a problem for anybody who chooses to voice their objections to some yahoo who gets belligerent and takes it to the next level. For those of you who remember the Martin Treptow case, he might have come out of a lot better than he did, but he flipped Beard off in the initial confrontation and that was what they used to hang him with.
