Last year, I wrote an article for this blog that covered the Top Five Indoor Ranges in the Southeast United States, and now it’s time to do it all over again, except this time I’m heading to the Northeast. I wanted to keep the same parameters I had used to rate and compare the ranges in the Southeast–those being indoor ranges that also offer something else to do either before or after you shoot on the range. Oh, and they need to be open to the public, which is a bit harder to find in the Northeast as most ranges are for members only. Now some club/private ranges are awesome ranges and even offer occasional public events, but again, the focus of this list is on the ranges that anyone, including out-of-state travelers, can shoot at any time. And speaking of you travelers, check out GunRentalsUSA the next time you’re planning a trip, GunRentalsUSA is essentially a searchable nationwide database of shooting ranges that also allows you to filter searches not only by if rentals are available or not but by exact makes and models of guns you’re interested in renting.
Okay, let’s not forget the disclaimer: this is just my list and my personal opinions. If I didn’t include your favorite indoor, public range it’s because I didn’t know about it, or for one reason or another it just didn’t make MY list. But feel free to reach out and share your range with me, I love hearing about great places to shoot. As a matter of fact, two of the ranges on this list were introduced to me by fellow firearms professionals.
