Whiskey Dick's Wants to Bring Gun Fighting; More

NORTH LAS VEGAS — Whiskey Dick's wants to make gun fighting a spectator sport. If the tavern gets its way, gunfighters who use modified handguns and non-lethal ammunition will battle it out in a "stage cage." "The 30-by-8-foot steel cage is designed so gunslingers can stand at opposite ends of the cage while a live band plays on the top of the cage. The combatants wear body armor and use modified 9 mm Glocks with non-lethal ammunition." [8 News Now]
