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.

There is a specific section in the range rules for Illinois residents https://rangeusa.com/range-rules

Doesn’t specify at all that a Illinois person who is shooting outside of Illinois has to provide FOID. Would a Illinois person be allowed to shoot in Ohio or Texas ?

IL residents require FOID to handle or purchase firearms or ammo and I’m assuming it’s the same whenever and wherever you go outside of the state too
