Yep!! I am sorry I stuck up for him by thinking he was like most of his generation that served honorably! I have no time or candy for people like that!Originally Posted by jcwit

Oh yes! My cousin from NC is up visiting and guess what? He's never fired an AR-15! Man it is 90 degrees here right now but I don't think it will take too long to loose a few hundred rounds from two AR's................<grin>
One more thing -- the chances of ANY of our bullets hitting his house are ZERO as we shoot 90 degrees into his house into a very large hill...............can you say:

He can claim ricochet.One more thing -- the chances of ANY of our bullets hitting his house are ZERO as we shoot 90 degrees into his house into a very large hill...............can you say:
Way back when the earth was cooler we setup a trap "range" on 80 acres next to our small pheasant farm. Neighbors all came to shoot periodically. One of them, across the street 170 degrees, claimed shot was hitting their roof and collecting in their gutters. Trap was in a buried shipping crate with one opening facing due South of everyone.
Oh, well.
Hope you don't have any more problems with him but I think you missed my point. If a case went to court you will be required to prove that no round ever went past your property line, in ANY direction. You are guilty until YOU prove you are innocent & 'everything is illegal until we make a law saying it is legal'. That is the reason I posted the link to the case. It started as a personal injury suit with absolutely NO evidence to support it. To get results, the city filed a suit claiming the range is not safe, using the NRA guidelines as law. If the case succeeds, I could shop a judge, point to the legal precedence ( compliance with ALL NRA guidelines) and shut down almost any outdoor range in Texas. Yea, it's just some other poor slob's problem, NOT. The downside to the city is that they would have to pay damages, condemn all residential property and change zoning for the land down range. Big $$$$. BTW, Ca law used to be that you couldn't be held criminally responsible for hitting a pedestrian outside the painted crosswalk lines. Bet that has changes with all the illiterates in the state now. Chime in anytime lawyers.
edit: for got to add that the city's attorney didn't lie to the court in his brief, stating 'the range opened in 69 and subsequently home were built on adjacent property', however he didn't state that the land (unincorporated) ~2.5 miles from city limits were annexed and zoned 10 years later. That statement would have put the city in the wrong.
dboseman - you are correct, big money is buying out our freedom.

Whatever!
A lot of older gun clubs are no more, due to new neighbors.
Why don't you just ask him what his problem is?? I had a neighbor like that in town, 30 feet away from my house!! He was a crotchety old goat I killed him with kindness, I use to knock the end of his Driveway out with my plow because all had was a Toro Single Stage snow blower did his sidewalks and Driveway too he mellowed after a couple seasons. Ended up not being a bad guy, passed away a couple years back. To this day I still refer to him as "The Old Fart!!" though!!

Art you live on a farm. You must havetree stumps that need removing. I think you can buy Detcord and dynamite. 1/2 a stick does a GOOD job of removing cherry tree stumps (domestic, tame). You may need to see sheriff and explain why you need it. If you have used it in the past you shouldn't have a problem. My father would stick a 1/2 stick a previously made hole with blasting cap and fuse attached. I would attach detcord to dynamite, bury dynamite in hole, bring detcord to surface, attach blasting cap and measured length of fuse. I didn't like the idea of tamping dynamite with blasting cap attached. Any way have fun removing stumps. Jeff
^^This^^ -- especially the part about calling the Sheriff when the alarm goes off ... they will put a stop to it ..... Just being a good neighbor.
A row of double high stacked round bales would do a lot to temper the noise. Real close to the property line. Bury some dead chicken parts in between the bales if he is mostly downwind... added bonus they attract a lot of mice even without decomposing dead chicken.
Put the law on your side. Everytime his "burglar alarm" goes off, call 911 and report your neighbors burgalar alarm is going off. The police will soon tire of this game and I beleive they will "encourage" him to be a better nieghbor.
If the loudspeaker has not been replaced by this time it may be a sign that someone has gotten to him and shown the error of his ways. We can all hope so.

Love your enemies, it drives them nuts! Take the high road and relax while he stews in his frustration.
BUT, if you decide to go the other way, there are some REALLY good suggestions on here! Just keep it legal and try to avoid direct confrontation. Try not to get law enforcement involved. No good can come of that.
And since he is only there part time, maybe he will cut his visits shorter.

Every time his alarm goes off, I would call the police and report a brake-in at you neighbors, since it is his alarm. The police will respond once or twice, then start charging him for the false alarms. ( this got so expensive for my neighbor , he shut the thing off!)
Absolutely agree with your post and the others that have the same advice. DO NOT ANTAGONIZE THE SITUATION. This can escalate out of control and you may end up regretting the outcome.
Seek legal advice. Speak with an attorney and consider a civil suit, if you can prove that what he is doing is egregious and harms you in some way. If you can't prove that what he is doing somehow harms you, then suck it up and drive on.
The "suck it up" part sounds like I'm being an donkey, but if you can simply live with it, then let him play his games and maybe he'll get bored. Continue to file complaints as necessary, but don't resort to stupid retaliation.
well it does rain fill that speaker with water when it does.
also good idea from others call cops everytime it goes off .
and yes everytime you see him be so nice its sickining.
