It states on their WEB page that Law Enforcement can still use the range does anyone know what they mean by that. Does that mean LEO in a group or can a couple if LEO's use the range. I just saw this and thought I would ask before I call them in the morning.

It’s always nice when you have a whole bunch of new gun owners who have no opportunity for proper gun safety instruction and practice.

Re: Ben Avery - closed
Hey flash,
I went over there the a couple days before it Ben Avery closed and the range master told me it may reopen the following Thursday which obviously never happened. Anyway when I told him the I wished it would reopen because there most other activities were on lockdown. He replied, what about the rangemasters. I get it, I'm pretty sure most of them are volunteers, and I get the snezzing upwind.
Are the indoor ranges still open?

That's considerate of you. I was there once and the guy next to me had his can and the other side was a guy with a .22. Most pleasant days ever at the range.samnev wrote: ↑April 9th, 2020, 7:16 am I have a brake on my 308 AIAW and my 308 Les Baer Match Sniper. When ever I go to the range I try to find a bench that has empty benches around it. I always get to the range early and bring AR's with no brake. If the range get crowded I take out a rifle with no brake.

The guys in green vests (range masters) are employees. The guys in red vests (range safety officers) are volunteers.jledman wrote: ↑April 12th, 2020, 11:46 pmHey flash,

Re: Ben Avery - closed
C2 Tactical Tempe and Scottsdale, Caswells, Ted's, Range 82, Scottsdale Gun Club and Shooters World are all open and I suspect all the other indoor ranges as well, but these are the ones I'm personally sure are open.jledman wrote: ↑April 12th, 2020, 11:46 pmHey flash,

I think G&F missed the boat here for some easy revenue. With so many people that have time on their hands (unfortunately) and wish to shoot.
Rio and PRGC do not seem to have any issues along with many indoor ranges.

There is one way you can shoot at Ben Avery or Rio Salado ranges and that's it. In the desert you can shoot how ever you want.

C2 in Scottsdale is great. The RO's there are really cool.
