    Default Anyone know of good SOT rental ranges in western PA?

    I'm the best man in a wedding this coming fall and have the responsibility of organizing the bachelors party. We initially were looking at renting supercars and getting some track time but none of the available dates works with all of the groomsmen schedules so that idea isn't going to work. We're tossing around the idea of renting some full-autos and having a fun range day and are looking for some interesting or unique firearms to shoot. Conversely, we'd also be interested in doing a long range shooting session in a private setting with professional instruction.

    The party would also consider other shooting related activities if anyone has other suggestions, otherwise we're probably going to end up renting a charter boat and/or cabin or something completely unrelated to firearms.

    Details:
    -Party of 5, 6th is tentative based on orders
    -Must be available Sept 27th or 28th
    -Ideally within 3 hours of Pittsburgh, closer is better
    -Ideally 2 to 4 hour block time

    We may consider dealing with a private individual contingent on whether or not they have private land to shoot on or if I can get permission to shoot on my friends family property which shouldn't be an issue. Any guidance or input is greatly appreciated.

    Thank you, I wasn't aware of either of these places and the prices seem a lot more fair than what I was thinking considering the prices of ammo.

    Looking at their respective websites it appears as if WCMG is preferable for what we are talking about.

    I reached out to them for more information.

    I reached out to the guys after we spoke and am waiting on feedback. Even if we don't do a bachelors party I'm certain I'll be checking the place out soon enough. Was talking to my wife about the high explosives courses, I don't know why but I also don't know why not.

    I'll be back in touch within a few days. Thanks for the prompt call.

    I have shot full autos every year going back to 2015 with WCMG. He's got the range/facility, the experience and a substantial amount of machine guns to suit every interest. Highly recommended.
