Unsure of Range name

[RickyT]

Got invited and went to a range yesterday way out Belle Chasse highway. Passed a Conoco refinery, saw a sign that said point la hache 10 miles. I started to pull in one place that had a sign on the hwy that might have said High Point? Had yellow painted pipe gates and had to enter the last one. All LEO's. Had NOPD, westwego, U.S. Customs and Border patrol and prolly more. Shot with a couple of snipes from the Westwego group and had a blast.
My question is the Customs/Border Patrol was shooting something that caught my eye and I like. Only thing I heard was 9mm. MP4 maybe or something sounds like that. I'm pretty sure it had a 4 in it. And if I'm not mistaked they shot full auto with them for a short spell.
We concluded our day with shotguns. Good day at the range.

Either High Point or the Plaquamines Sheriff's range.

You shot at the PPSO range? MP5 is what you saw..http://maps.google.com/maps?client=firefox-a&channel=s&hl=en&q=PLaquemines+parish+sheriff%27s+office+range&ie=UTF8&ll=29.628934,-89.93553&spn=0,359.986911&t=h&z=17&layer=c&cbll=29.628549,-89.934701&panoid=Ei91FV60mi-xgQHoNglTMQ&cbp=12,219.45770755572414,,0,10.805697796471053

Thanks, PPSO was it. I pulled off the road at high point and they told me to keep coming.

Now to look up that MP5.

How is the range looking? it has been a while since I was out there. Katrina tore it up and they were supposed to be "closed" because FEMA was gonna pay for improvements. However, every agency in the area shoots there. Do you know if Mike LeBouef is still the range master?

Any pics?

 

[RickyT]

My first trip there. Nothing fancy. No pics except a couple on my cell. One of us that shot all day was kinda sore and I took a pic of him with a sandbag on his shoulder to help absorb recoil.
As I pulled in at the left gate/left side of property it looked like the first two areas were for handguns, or at least that was what they were shooting. The third areas was where customs/border patrol was firing handguns and then them MP5's. Had a hedgerow or weed row between areas. We was in the last area which was just a skinny lane for rifles. We had targets at 100yds and 300yds. It was OK except it was a long freekin haul for me. Not sure about if Mike is still there. And the gnats tore us up!

If you like the MP5 but not the price then there is the GSG-5. I think several baord members have one. It's just an MP5 clone in .22lr.

PPSO range is back up and running .. I was there a few weeks ago looks like it did before the storm..

I dont think Mike is still rangemaster .. I didnt ask... I was told he isnt there anymore by one of the other guys that was out there shooting...

Gretna has at least one MP5 also.. They where out there with it when I was at the range...
