New thread,I pulled some posts from another thread.
We've since moved to Mascoutah,but kept the name Caseyville Rifle and Pistol Club. It's located close to Scott AFB,and some antis have made the wild claim that we will - no BS - shoot airplanes out of the sky. But despite some opposition I think and hope we will be there for a while. Unfortunately I see less and less places to shoot in the future,due to development and politics.
I'm a member at Caseyville,and they did end up moving. Not willingly,but they didn't get kicked out either. Basically,eminent domain was threatened so the club made a deal with the county instead of going to court and getting robbed. Caseyville didn't care that it was a gun range,they just wanted the land for development.I recently heard they are closing down the Caseyville gun club via "eminent domain" for some BS reasons that have existed for decades - but suddenly NOW are a problem?
