    Default Nearest Outdoor Range to Philadelphia that rents full-auto rifles?

    I live in Philadelphia and am looking to shoot some full-auto ARs. I don't think there are any options to do so in the city.

    Where's the nearest place where I can rent and shoot full-auto ARs?

    Thanks a lot.

    Not outdoors but they rent full autos to shoot.

    Now I'm not 100% sure but I know I've rented a full auto H&K over at Target Master in Chadds Ford PA which is a good 35 min drive from the city or so. So I would call them and see what they have available for shooting.

    oh wow thanks, this place looks great, and ironically is only a few miles away from where my girlfriend lives!

    I'll definitely go there soon.

    It's a little pricey to rent when your not a member but it makes for a good time either way. Ammo goes quick to so go big.

    I may be wrong because I always get confused between Target Master and Target World. But I believe the one that rents FA only allows pistol calibers.

    Classic Pistol in Southampton allows rifle FA and rents FA guns. Don't remember if they rent FA rifle cal.

    Unfortunately, learning FA rifle takes a couple hundred rounds and is best done outside where you are less afraid of screwing up. You can't learn to do it by timidly firing burst at indoor targets. You can fire 1000 rounds burst and you will still be all over te place. Once you actually let the gun run a bit is when you learn how to control it, and your burst improves as well. Actually, the term "burst" sort of looses meaning. Because it does not provide greater control for the experienced.
