| - For Las Vegas locals, it doesn't get any better. Free range time during their 'Happy Hour', otherwise it's still just $5 for locals. Unlike most other ranges I've been to, I actually found The Range 702 to be a place I wouldn't mind spending a few hours in. It is well-lit, has strong air-conditioning/ventilation, is spacious, clean and new. It's in a big building with lots of space, friendly staff, a large selection of rentals and plenty of parking. Although I hesitate to use their cafe, retail section or computer simulation range right away, it's nice to see they offer things most other ranges don't.
I understand that for firearm owners who know what they're doing, having an instructor go over basic range safety rules is a pain. But c'mon, they're doing it not only because of all the tourists, but also the idiots who come in with a friend or family member who have no idea what they're doing. And dare I say, also for all the gun owners who don't give a damn about firearm safety. I didn't mind; it was 2 minutes of the guy going over their rules, then he left me alone to practice on my lane. I don't know about you, but when it comes to gun safety, I ALWAYS error on the side of caution, even if it's a pain in the butt.
If they keep their Vegas locals pricing, I'll definitely keep coming back.
