Many of you may know that my home club is San Diego Shotgun Sports (formerly Miramar T&S). This wonderful gun club has operated under a lease with the US Navy and then the Marines for over 30 years. We had trap, skeet,five stand,sporting,Olympic bunker, and Olympic skeet. Our lease was up for renewal this coming December. Apparently, there were questions brought up about lead. Well, it was just announced:

"At the direction of the United States Marine Corps, SAN DIEGO Shotgun Sports has ceased shooting activities until further notice.

SDSSA President Robert Keefe is preparing a statement to be posted on the web site regarding this matter."
