Would private shooters have to have a nlininlUlTI anlount of <br />experience? What is the standard of qualifications? What kinds of guns could shooters use? <br /> <br />Ranlsey County officials responded that these details have not been worked out. On public <br />ranges, anyone can shoot. Do not have to prove expertise. Jolly said these details have not been <br />worked out yet. <br /> <br />The firing range is built to nleet the needs of the counties, not the private sector, and they do not <br />intend to cOlnpete with the private sector. <br /> <br />Firing range is relatively near for our police officers to get to - near the new jail. - off of 94 near <br />University Ave and Lafayette. <br /> <br />Estinlate that to build firing range in Roseville - $250,000. <br /> <br />Advantages to using their range <br />.
