Mobile Shooting Range in South Florida

A mobile shooting range in south Florida helps gun owners become more proficient!

This from Naples News, "Do you remember anything about June 28, 2002? Sabine Scholz sure does. Scholz, a former Marco Islander, recalls that Friday in vivid color and surround-sound, because it’s the day a bank robber shot her.

Leaving for the weekend from her job at a Royal Palm Bank branch in North Naples, the armed robber came in and demanded money. As Scholz moved to obey him, his gun went off, wounding her in the leg. She made a full recovery, but Scholz believes that if she had a gun that day, she probably wouldn’t have been able to use it.

Now, jump ahead to a sunny day several years ago. Scholz was at work at the Royal Palm Bank branch on Marco when a customer, Mike Christoff, told her he was planning to open a mobile gun range on the Island.

“I wanted to learn from scratch, so I took the classes and really loved it,” she recalls. “Mike was great and knows how to teach. When I saw myself getting better at shooting, I went more often and have been shooting there ever since.”

Christoff’s Mobile Tactics indoor range and gun store/training facility opened in April 2006 and still is the only indoor range in Collier County.

Today, Mobile Tactics is a busy place, as people from Marco and elsewhere are signing up in record numbers to get what Christoff offers: lessons on the proper and safe training for firearms, plus the sales of guns and accessories."
