Small Caliber Ranges in New York and New Engand (Active Use Only).

Abstract

This report on the capabilities of small caliber weapons training ranges located in New York and the New England states was prepared by the Defense Training and Performance Data Center. This report provides a comprehensive listing of ranges, locations, sizes, and known restrictions for DoD-owned (to include National Guard) ranges for the seven-state area. Both indoor and outdoor active ranges are included in the report. All seven Reserve components are requireed to fulfill some type of annual weapons qualification. This collection effort can be of benefit to all units in the identified area. Since training hours are always at a premium, this report will be distributed to all units in the seven-state area to assist trainers in the selection of the closest ranges available for weapons qualification. The military's ground, air, and sea training spaces are a national asset which must be protected. The travel time saved for Reserve units and general cost benefits derived form this pilot effort merits a continuing collection program. As additional data are assembled on other regions of the United States, follow-on reports will be distributed.
