FWP Seeking Input On Proposed Shooting Range

Montana Fish, Wildlife and Parks is seeking public input for a proposed public shooting range project in Glasgow. A public scoping meeting will be held at the FWP Region 6 headquarters in Glasgow in the Quonset building meeting room on Thursday, Aug. 22, at 5:30 p.m.

FWP is seeking to lease property from the city of Glasgow where the current Glasgow public shooting range is located, approximately one-half mile north of Glasgow off Skylark Rd. FWP would improve and manage the Glasgow shooting range depending on the public’s interest, recommendations, and support of the current site during the public scoping process.

The purpose of the proposed project is to create more public opportunity for recreational shooting by making possible improvements to the current rifle, trap, pistol, and archery ranges in the Glasgow area. Comments must be received by end of day Aug. 31. Comments can be emailed to Tim Potter at tpotter@mt.gov Subject: Glasgow Shooting Range Lease and Improvements, or mailed to: Montana Fish, Wildlife, and Parks, Attn: Tim Potter Jr., 1 Airport Rd, Glasgow, MT 59230.
