Shooting Guns In The Country

Not to mess with the other thread but this is what happens here.

I have about 10 neighbors within a mile give or take.

When we shoot in my yard i do not shoot before 10am on the weekdays and 12 on the weekends. We also do not shoot past dark.

We try and be respectful of the other neighbors.

However one neighbor will shoot anytime day or night. It is annoying to hear shooting at 3 in the mourning.

If im sleeping it will not wake me up though.

Somebody in my neighborhood has a full auto something. It sounds like a pistol of some kind. I would like to know what he has.

    I moved to the country years ago , I shoot when ever I want any time of day or night and from I can tell everyone with in a few miles does the same hear gun fire at random all the time
    possible close neighbors may care but never said anything to me ( just the time they ( new ones ) called the sheriff as I posted in the other thread [:D] ) .
    they plow and harvest with loud equipment when weather permits 24/7 trucks jake brake going past our house as the next small town is about a mile down the road slowing down just part of the country living [:D][:D]

    My neighbors are cool. Got them on three sides and have always test fired everything from submachine guns, pistols, and shotguns. I don't shoot belt feds and seldom 30-06 class weapons.

    No one complains. [:)]

    Of course I live in the county.

    I'm not a church goer, but it seems every Sunday I hear someone shooting off in the distance around service time. Me thinks they do it to intentionally disturb the church near by. Dick move IMO.

    I do the same thing Dave. I have one neighbor who lives down the road from me. He has a lot of family in the area and when I see they are having a get to gather I don't shoot anything but sub sonics in my 22 rifle if I even shoot.

    Most of the time don't even shoot on weekends.

    Loving and respecting your neighbor as yourself is a great policy...
