It depends on where you live, or how far you're willing to drive, but here's a few places;
Bob's Gun Shop, aka Lethal Weapons Training Academy. http://www.lethalweaponstraining.com/
Indoor range (rental), guns, ammo, and good advice/training.

I belong to Gem City Gun Club; http://www.gemcitygunclub.org/
Lots of outdoor ranges, indoor range, must be member.

Keystone is in town; http://www.keystonegun.com/
Indoor range (rental).

Lawrence Park has a gun club, basically under the Nagle Rd bridge.

State game lands, on Sampson road, near R97. Need a permit or hunting license.

No range, but sell guns/ammo;
Keystone Armory; http://thekeystonearmory.com/

Edinboro Outdoors; http://www.edinborooutdoors.com/

There's a new gun shop in North East, that seems to be willing to do what it takes to earn your business; http://www.facebook.com/pages/Valley...57859354234510

Welcome back. Missed you.
The SGL permit issue has been discussed; http://forum.pafoa.org/general-2/124...range-use.html (Game Commission Requires Permit For Range Use)
Basically, no more free ride. Either have a hunting license, or buy a users permit.

I'm not a hunter nor a furtaker so I'd have to buy a license to use a PUBLIC facility?

My LTCF should be good enough if any kind of permit/license is needed.

.........and I thought they did away with public pay toilets..........

As I understand it, hunting fees paid for the game lands, so charging non-hunters sort of makes sense.
Better off at a club anyways.


Wow, I just noticed, N.C. ???? I'll bet there needs to be a translator when you try to talk with them Rebels!

The speech is not the problem. Just everything else is. In your wildest dreams you couldn't imagine.

I've been there, well, in Greensboro. My brother lived there for a while. Nicest people in the world, but think every road is a Nascar track!
