I dont know about steel pins. I know they have steel hanging targets and regular bowling pins.
I come from NY and I had a range there that had plenty of range nazi's. I hate that and I dont have any problems with this range. I am the type of guy to respect range rules and not cause trouble.
In NY I had my garand out. I was shooting surplus ammo so I ran a bore snake through it. I did it a few times and my action was open and I had the rifle standing upward. The but was on my sneaker(toe area) I didnt want to scratch it on the cement. I already checked to see if the chamber was clear cause I sent a bore snake through it a few times and I looked down my BBL to make sure it was clear ( no obstructions)cause I wanted to shoot more rounds.
You would think I went off on a shooting rampage the way this range nazi came down on me. I had to convince him that car mechanics work on engines and if you carefuly and safely work on your firearm it can be done safely. So I know what you are afraid of and I havent seen this nonsense at atglen.
I wanted to flip the bastard the bird but ranges were and are in short supply there. That one in now closed.
