I was turned away from service to use the range at Blue Core simply due to the fact that I require 24/7 oxygen therapy. This isn't exactly explosive liquid oxygen (not that it should matter), it's simply concentrated oxygen right out of the air and it sits right behind me when I am shooting. There is no reason in the world why it would not be safe for me to shoot at any properly built gun range. I have shot at ranges all over town and in Texas and Louisiana as well. I would be much more likely to shoot myself than for my oxygen bottle to take a direct hit. The entire premise is ridiculous. It mostly irritates me because from what I understand, they have the only 100m, indoor range in the area and I was looking for a place to shoot in the colder months when the weather was exceptionally bad. Very, very, disappointing.

It's still a large volume, compressed container. I'll see if I can find the exact regulation in CFRs that prohibit that at an indoor range.

ive seen someone shoot with a tank of O2 and mask on before, I've seen him a few times actually.

But then again BlueCore constantly changes the rules for no reason and explanation and then denies they once allowed it.

If its a pure o2 tank I would understand but an oxygen concentrator is not any kind of risk
