In rural areas, it's normal to just go in the woods and shoot. I grew up with guns, practiced quite frequently, and have never been to an actual range.

- zepto 5y agoFor sure, but most of the population is now urban including large numbers of new gun owners. The nearest place to the Bay Area for example, where you can shoot on public land legally is neither easy to find, nor anywhere near where most people live.

- zepto 5y agoOnly because there aren’t many gun shops. Buying guns in california is not hard. If you have adequate ID and know the most basic elements of gun safety, you can just walk into a gun shop and buy one. You can’t take it home for 10 days, but that’s a different matter.
- panarky 5y agoI would bet that 90% of the California population is within one hour of a gun store. Handguns and rifles are legal and easy to buy if you don't have a criminal record.
