Outdoor ranges in NoVA - 02/04/14 07:08 PM
Does anyone know of a place to shoot outdoors within driving distance of Loudoun?
I just got a suppressor and it doesn't make much sense to shoot inside with 30 other people firing at the same time. I'd also like to take people new to firearms out now and then, and indoor ranges are a bad choice there, too (unless I never want them to shoot again).
I was spoiled by the Jefferson NF range. Simple, uncrowded, donation-based.
I know of CF Phelps and Clark Bros. CF Phelps doesn't allow pistols and isn't open most of the year. I've only ever driven by Clark Bros., and it looks packed every time. Not what I'm looking for, but maybe it's not too bad once you're in there?
Also considering an membership at Izaak Walton or 340 in WV. Maybe someone has land they'd charge me to use every couple months? Not sure I shoot enough to join a gun club.
Appreciate any responses, thanks!
