    Default Female Shooter in Shadyside looking for Gun Range

    Despite having grown up around guns and being well versed in their safety, I'm fairly new to owning one myself (A Springfield XD 9). My uncle lives about an hour north of me and is a certified and licensed instructor and dealer, and while he's my mentor in all things firearms, it is a bit of a hike for me to go up to the range with him on a regular basis.

    I was wondering if anyone knew of a range or club closer to the city that they would recommend? Any idea are appreciated - thank you!

    I've lived in Oakland and Squirrel Hill. PMSC is probably your best bet.

    Yuck....never go there...especially as a female...they will look right through you as they did my wife...As they have with other peoples wives who I spoke to about this. Not to mention they make you buy ammo so no reloads and the customer service generally sucks ass
