it happens all the time... the city people want to move to the country and then want to impose their city views on the existing residents...

We built a house on that road in Hollis in 1979 and I remember this situation well. we knew the gun club was there and it only generated a few pops on a few occasions. Sometimes they had a meet of some kind and there was more noise. Many of our neighbors were upset with us because we would not join their "cause". Every one of us knew the club was there before we bought or built.
This is total nonsense.
