North Carolina High School
Opens Indoor Gun Range

By Jenn Jacques. April 19th, 2016

A high school in Smithfield, NC now offers another lane of study for some students: Members of the Army Junior Reserve Officer Training Corps program are able to study their aim on campus.

The JROTC built a 1,200-square-foot, six-lane, indoor shooting range at the Smithfield-Selma High School and students began using the facility last week. The $10,000 in costs for the range was donated by the North Carolina Wildlife Resources Commission and the National Shooting Sports Foundation.

Although cadets will be shooting with Daisy pump air rifles, they still need to go through extensive firearms training before being allowed in the gun range. .....

This is certainly surprising as well as a great move in the right direction -- with all the anti-gun hype and zero tolerance, to even have practice with air rifles is to be applauded. Comprehensive training, both with regard to marksmanship as well as gun safety is a good formula and helps build the discipline of responsibilty. No doubt there are cries of horror from some directions!
