I thought it was suppose to be opening last Jan.
Their website's last update is dated Jan 12th saying 'significant progress' has been made. There is a link to a camera which is suppose to allow looking at the progress but it doesn't work. I've called the Con. Dept. a couple of times since Jan and neither time did the person I talk to know anything about status or expected completion date. Anyone here know anything?

| The timeline has been quietly extended over the last year. I remember noticing the only information on their website to change was the "months" till complete doubled with no mention of what was going on. The last time I called the lady kind of chuckled when I asked what the status of the range was and stated "weather" had delayed the project. Only with a tax payer funded project is a year delay acceptable....I'd guess its over budget but thats just my opinion. |

The contractor is wrapping up several punch list items. It is not my project, but I am one of the engineers assisting the project engineer on this, depending on how quickly the sub contractor of the bullet trap moves I am guessing September.
There are some building electrical issues, and like I said before some issues with the bullet trap, but it is right on the edge of being complete. Early on in the project it took much longer to remove the lead from the soil than we were initially told, that increased the amount of time to complete it as well as significant weather delays. As far as the camera not working, I'm not sure about what is causing that-I'm not IT, but this link works for me and both cameras are up and running. |
| The contractor is finished with the range. Outreach and Education are putting in all of their computers and monitoring equipment, getting all of their stuff moved in and so forth. The grand opening is October 28 to the public. There is a VIP reception on Friday October 27th for the commissioners and politicians, etc.. |
| Went to Busch range one time several years ago. Range Nazi on my ass cause I fired my FN Hi-Power to fast he thought then again for picking up and keeping my own brass. Told him to go suck on a lemon. Then he had the nerve to ask me if I would let him fire my Hi-Power. Gathered up my stuff and left to never return. |
