Good Idea: This Oklahoma Gun Range Got Its Own Liquor License

On Tuesday, the Oklahoma City city council approved a liquor license for the upcoming Wilshire Gun Range, a 40,000 square foot establishment slated to be the “first in the state where people can shoot and enjoy libations,” according to the Associated Press. Sounds like a brilliant idea.

Approved by council members 6 – 3, the range is expected to contain 24 firearm lanes, 10 archery lanes, and a cafe serving both food and alcohol. Don’t worry too much though. According to co-owner Jeff Swanson (whom we can only assume is related to Ron), visitors must shoot first before drinking, and, upon ordering a drink, will be prevented from entering the shooting lanes, either as spectators or shooters.

Surveillance cameras and employees trained in “field sobriety” will also prevent drunk people from getting anywhere near the guns.
