Good luck with that

Very good news. I'd love NW Omaha to get some love.....but won't hold my breath. Too bad Elkhorn was occupied- I mean annexed by Omaha.

NEBRASKA CROSSING at I-80 and Hwy 31 / Gretna is starting a full redevelopment program. All existing businesses are out and a major remodel to take place with new anchor stores. A good entrepreneur could look at a space there for an indoor range. ;)

Somewhere west of the Elkhorn river and north of Hwy 93 would be ideal. Out of Obamaha's reach, but not too far...

I actually looked into that a while back. They have very nice facilities. Limited facilities for rifle and pistol, but their trap ranges are first rate.
Then I asked about membership. There are more hoops to jump through at the Bellevue Gun Glub than one must go through to open their own range in Omaha! OMG, the guy droned on for 10 minutes about membership requirements, work details, all kinds of junk. I thanked him and left as quickly as possible. I dont want to live with those folks, I just want to go and shoot occasionally, jeez!
