    Default Best place to rent and shoot handguns in the area?

    Hey fellow Centre County residents (and others),

    My wife just got her LTCF and we're looking into options for her. She wants on-body carry (so a small, concealable handgun) and something that fits in her hand well, but without shooting the weapon I'm hesitant to purchase one in the event that she doesn't like it.

    As the title says, I'm looking for locations nearby or in the surrounding area where we could go to have her try out some different handguns. Specifically we're looking into the following options: the Springfield XDs (9mm), S&W Shield (9mm), Glock 42 (.380), and Glock 26 (9mm). I know of one such place - A&S in Youngwood - but would like to know if there are any options closer to State College.

    Thanks all!

    The closest I know of is Outdoor City Guns/Altoona Indoor Range. I've never been there, though. I have no idea about rates or availability, but it gives you somewhere to start.

    Here is an informational and mini review thread about the Altoona Indoor Range:
