    But before pb we only had 1 indoor range, blythes.
    Debs does not count. Thus the distance to blythes was not seen as far for those in lake county as there was no other choice.

    For me, a stone's throw from the IL border, Deb's is the closest. I've found their staff very friendly. For me the place gets too smoky.

    Blythe's in Valpo is where I bought my gun, after first visiting the Griffith shop. It's just too far away--a hour drive in daytime traffic.

    Point Blank is now my default. Shiny new clean. Asking for an annual pass on my Christmas list. Took a CCW Skills class there...Hi quality.

    This sums me up on debs and blythes as well.
    I have yet to visit pb and doubt i ever will. Indoor ranges are just too loud for me.

    And the furnace is out again.
    Sensor keeps tripping.
    Maybe the sensor is bad.
    When I get to work, I'll ask a guy there what it is, and if he has one he can part with. Or maybe it's tripping for a reason, and what that reason is.

    YouTube it. I had spider webs in one of the vacuum (or something) lines. It was shutting down the furnace.

    I took my first basic NRA class at Debs. Valpo is too far away. I liked the instructors and feel that they tried hard and did a good job. I was shocked by the poor ventilation of the range which reached all the way upstairs, I couldn't believe that was legal. I joined an outdoor range and hope to never have to shoot indoors again.

    Same here took my first course at debs. Yes the staff is very nice. I think debs range was grandfathered in terms of the ventilation rules. It would take way too much $$$ to redo the place and i suspect that once deb passes so will the place. :(

    I had water building up somewhere. I had to shop vac it out. I don't know HVAC well, but I saw water dripping somewhere and 2 corrugated clear hoses full of mucky water. Sucked em out. All is well.
