Re: 1st Trip To The Range With Plastic

Somehow my earlier response to this OP got lost, so I'm re-posting, even though my thoughts are echoed, partially, in some of the intervening responses.

I shoot at Red's occasionally. Their doors have signs stating that all guns are to be unloaded prior to entry. However, the signs are not 30.06. They also have a rule that there is no drawing from holsters. I interpret all of this to mean that they are fine with concealed carry, just don't remove it from the holster while at the range. In other words, if you plan to shoot your carry weapon, it cannot be your carry weapon that day. Unload it, put it in a case, carry it into the store and load it at the firing line just as you would for any other firearm you were planning to shoot at the range that day. Use a different gun that day as your carry weapon.

I went to Red's for the first time since I got my plastic in hand. I kept "them" in my pocket until I got into the "noisy room". When I entered the actual range, I took both guns out of my pockets, set them on the counter, and proceeded to shoot. When I was done, I reloaded my defense ammo, and put "them" back in my pockets before I exited the "noisy room". Is this normal policy for gun ranges? Are some stricter, or more liberal with their policies?
