Are things bad enough that cannibalizing the cadet organization is really worth talking about?

Based on the size of the instructor in this photo you’d need a pretty hungry cannibal

Figure a million dollars a lane at that point — on top of a ~10m initial investment.
On top of air handler issues, the confined space increases risks of TBI/CSE. Even suppressed carbine/rifle fire isn’t hearing safe / and so to make safe working conditions one end up with a much larger range.
So your 10 lane range is now widened to what 30-50 would have on an outdoor. And now you are at a $50-60M range just so you can cycle 10 shooters at a time through a PWT?

Outdoor ranges are vastly preferable.

Thanks, didn't realize the cost was so high, plenty of land available to make out door ranges. Especially at some or the cadet camps in the Rockies.
