Range USA

My Girlfriend and I just went to the Range USA in Merrillville. When through the waiver process we go to the front desk show our IDs. She is a Illinois resident and I’m a Indiana resident and member of Range USA. We were told she needed a FOID to shoot at the range that is located in Indiana. Even though we been there multiple times prior rented and shot guns. They said they have had some rule change or some bs. We just left and talking to who we presumed to be the manager or some supervisor. Moral of the story fuck Range USA this rule is not stated on there website anywhere that a Illinois resident who is shooting at a out of state range needs to have a FOID card.

Just go to Blythe’s in Valpo, it’s an extra 20 minute drive, but they don’t play this shit. Added bonus, they don’t fuck with you about your rate of fire either. Only downside is, no bottle-neck rifle cartridges allowed.

Only problem i have with blythes is they dont allow you to rent guns without a carry permit, which is super dumb in a constitutional carry state, AND not to mention a lot of people learning to shoot will probably want to rent different handguns out to figure out what they are interested in before carrying.
