the RSO's at island lake can be a bit... uptight - and from what i've been told by friends who still go there, this time of year with all the bubbb'as getting their deer guns ready - they can get a lot worse.
i had an absolutely terrible experience there and i've never been back. i had a RSO come running over to me while i was waiting for a lane to open because i opened my case and was taking some targets out and my sharpie to pre-mark to be efficient on the firing line because it was busy.
he threatened to throw me out for having an uncased firearm off the firing line. he was yelling at the top of his lungs. inside my case was a disassembled ar. it never left the case and the lid was open less than 60 seconds lol
me: "relax man, its in n two pieces. its unable to fire like it is. i'm just getting paper targets out" (showed him the targets in my hand)
rso: "weell you could have"
me: "what about those dudes walking down the trail (from the sporting clays range toward the clubhouse) with their guns on their shoulders uncased" ( im talking 4 guys with shotguns on their shoulders like 50' from where im getting screamed at)
rso: "dont be a smartass or you're out of here right f'ing now"
me: cya, dont need this kind of abuse.
I dont know if he was just having a bad day or what, but i dont tolerate that kind of stupidity and abuse in my life. especially when you get caught being an obvious hypocrite about the "rules". i mean hell when i got there there was a guy inside the clubhouse with a shotgun leaning against the desk paying for his fee's and another walking across the parking lot to his ride to leave.

multi-lakes is a nice range (200 yd berm too) but they're $12 i think for non members.
