Small Arms Ranges at Reserve and Guard Facilities (LCD-81-8)

Abstract

In recent years Reserve components have claimed they needed additional funds to enlarge their training centers and armories to construct new ones. Because of the high cost of the needs reported and earlier work that identified unused indoor small arms range space in Reserve components' arms ranges in the Sacramento, California, area. We attempted to determine (1) whether Reserve components were adequately considering existing indoor and outdoor ranges in the same geographical area when planning construction of facilities which will include in door ranges and (2) whether existing indoor ranges could be used for other purposes if they are unused or are in an area where another range might be used instead. The details of our work are contained in the enclosure.
