A) Where are you? That would be helpful.
B) What kind of firearm? If you're in or near Dallas, I have fired a friend's suppressed Bushmaster AR15 in the tactical bay at Elm Fork Rifle Range. Two lanes to my right, a guy was firing a suppressed MP5 on full auto.

I am down here in Houston. Alot of ranges don't allow for various reasons.

I know TOP GUN in Houston as well as Impact Zone allow suppressors and SBR's. It's a no no at American Shooting Center and Carter's though.tateb24 wrote:I am down here in Houston. Alot of ranges don't allow for various reasons.

Re: Best Place to Shoot Suppressed?
At Top Gun...just make sure that you take a copy of your Form-4. Every time that I've gone in there with a suppressor or an SBR they get kinda standoff-ish. I just get out my paperwork and show them that the serial numbers match etc and they usually don't have a problem with it. As far as I know there is no legal requirement to show those documents to them, but I do it as a courtesy. Also I forgot to mention that shiloh shooting range in Tomball loves machine guns, suppressors, SBR's etc. Jeff and his crew run a top notch range.

You might give Shiloh a call. They had a small show there a while back and Talon had brought a bunch of supressed & full auto firearms that people could shoot.
Thay may have been just for that day.

I wouldn't spend money at a range that didn't allow suppressors, SBRs, or handguns.

Re: Best Place to Shoot Suppressed?
Yes that was us just for that day. We had an HK UMP, MP5 and an FN P90 I think it was for a BBQ or something (maybe Shiloh's anniversary). We've also been out there when Outlaw Dave was broadcasting.TDDude wrote:You might give Shiloh a call.

Not that it matters for the purposes of this discussion, but Shiloh is not in Tomball.

Re: Best Place to Shoot Suppressed?
It is not in Houston either, just another part of unincorporated Harris County. :)

I don't own any class 3 toys but I wouldn't patronize an antigun gunrange. Boycott them like any other antigun business.

Sorry Rugrash, I couldn't resist. I even used a smiley hoping you wouldn't be too upset. Cheers.
