[QUOTE="Letfreedomring, post: 4127595, member: 50298"] I got kicked out of an indoor range in Dallas for that. My buddy, Jesus and I got off working night shift and he drove us to an indoor range in Dallas around the Red Oak area. Had to wait in parking lot for them to open up and when entering after signing waiver and all, going toward the double doors of shooting lanes a sign on door said "NO MAGNUMS ALLOWED". Being new to the shooting scene I asked my buddy if 50AE counted as a magnum and he shrugged and said don't worry about it and come on. He took his carry pistol which was a glock in 45acp and threw some down range while I unpacked my newly acquired DE. Loaded it up and Jesus stopped and stood behind me to check it out. Well, I lit one off and after getting my bearings and waiting for dust from overhead lights to settle I turn around and my buddy is nowhere to be seen. I peek around the lane dividers and see him bent over his loading bench laughing his ass off. We giggle like school girls for a few and I go back to sending $2 bills downrange when I heard a bunch of screaming and cease fires from behind. It was the shop owner which asked me if I could read.... I informed him that it said no magnums allowed, but this was a 50 action express. After his face turned a few more shades of red he blurted out "Well I think that qualifies, don't you?" I shrugged and pleaded ignorance and he asked if I would like to buy him a new backstop and I informed him that I would not. So he told us to pack up and leave his establishment as the steam slowed to a trickle from his ears. Jesus and I left and talked about that day for many years until I quit and moved to Missouri and lost touch with him. Good times! BTW- Apparently 50AE = magnum :blush: [/QUOTE]
