ABSTRACT:
An enclosed, substantially bulletproof shooting booth for an individual shooter has a front shooting opening communicating with the interior of an elongated, substantially bulletproof firing tube extending from the booth. The end of the firing tube remote from the shooting booth is closed by a bullet backstop which deflects bullets fired from the booth and collects them in a trough of liquid. The booth, tube and backstop are of double-wall construction with a bulletproofing and noise-suppressing layer of sand between inner and outer walls. Each of the booth, tube and backstop can be at least partially prefabricated at a remote location and transported to a desired range site where they are installed above ground so as to form a space-saving, quiet, enclosed shooting range for an individual shooter.
