    This is an honest (yet stupid) question...
    I live outside the city limits and it's perfectly legal to discharge a firearm out here but....it's still a neighborhood and aside from some dove hunting around the edges, noone really does it.
    My question:
    My shop is 30×40, I would love to be able to go inside, close the doors and shoot various handguns inside there (while wearing hearing protection)....is there anything I could use, like against the whole back wall (or a large portion of it) that would 100% stop bullets everytime?
    I know it sounds kinda crazy, but to be able to go out there and shoot a few rounds here and there would really make me :).
    I know my homeowners insurance wouldnt like the idea, but I dont like the idea of them raising my rates every year and it doesnt seem to bother them in the least.

    Railroad ties perhaps?

    If you have an independent sawmill local to you they could probably provide the materials.

    I like both of these ideas. I'm going to try to figure something out this spring, thank you.

    Stop the bus, you want to shoot guns in your shop o_O

    Have you ever seen what an arrow can do to a shop wall, or door?


    :rofl::rofl::rofl:


    Just kidding, all I can say is don’t shoot hollow points if you use thick steel. I’ve got a 3/8” stainless target that will deflect almost anything…..except hollow points :eek:

    I got a lumberjack slam and couldn’t eat it all but wanted some of my pancakes. I decided to eat the best part :D
