Indoor range is offering a deal...I think

[imschur]

The place where I bought my Kimber has an indoor range, its small but pretty nice. They are offering a special to become a member. Im trying to decide if its a good deal or not.

What do you guys think?

What do they charge just to walk in? The free gun rentals look attractive if they have a good selection. I guess  a lot would have to do with would you go enough to make it worthwhile.

PS Since I don't live in the east, I have trouble judging if things are to expensive.

Wow, well I guess if you intended to take a bunch of their classes it might be worth it, maybe.  I can't imagine paying an annual fee (basic package) and still paying range fees.  I guess it's just that expensive to shoot around there?

For comparison: I pay $140 / year at my private range.  We have 2 ranges (both outdoor, mind you), one is multiple pistol ranges, plus rimfire ranges.  The other is pistol, shotgun, and centerfire ranges all the way out to 1000 yards.  We pay nothing betond that $140, and they pay for our NRA RSO class if we want to take it.

I know it's apples and oranges, and that indoor range does indeed look very nice!

we have very few range, almost all are private. Theres one public range and its insane. The other range that has rifle as well is pricey per hour

I pay $160 a year for our club membership, all outdoors of course. The Albuquerque Shooting Park the only public outdoor range I know of charges $6 a day, it is okay durig the week, but on weekends it is insane also. The only indoor range I know of charges $20 a day or they have an annual membership for $249.99, with bennies of $5 dollar pistol and rifle rentals (normally $10 & $15) free targets, hearing & eye protection and some other stuff related to purchasing weapons. The also have Uzi and Mac10 full autos to rent, hmmmm might have to go play didn't know that.

Hope the comparsions help.

I think I paid $15-$20 an hour last time I shot

The range i use is $5 per hour in rural Texas and its 10c per target. and the other range in lubbock which is indoor is $13 for the day but i havnt been there yet.

One indoor range in my area, whose parking lot is consistently filled with Mercedes Benzs and BMWs, charges $25 per hour. Never asked their membership fees. My favorite range, which is outdoor, charges $10 per hour for walk ins but, they'll allow you to shoot all day for that $10 if no one is waiting on a lane. This range's membership is $100 per year plus $5 per hour. I prefer outdoor ranges. Shooting indoors just somehow seems wrong.

The range i use is outdoor it is in a canyon and its nice to be in the fresh air and enjoy the days shooting.
