    Los Angeles County indoor ranges?

    I want to take my cousin to a range again. She lives in the San Gabriel valley. I live in South Riverside and the range I have membership in is in San Diego.
    She has come with me before and enjoys it, and is thinking of purchasing her own firearm, but would like to find a place nearby to practice.
    I tried a Google search and the closest and (as far as I can tell) best options seem to be 'Los Angeles Gun Club' and 'La Puente Firing Range'.
    Does anyone have any experience with these ranges? Any other suggestions? Mainly looking at indoor because they are open later. Closest major freeway intersection is the 60/605.

    The Firing-Line Indoor Shooting Range https://maps.apple.com/?address=1060...ImhFlF3AUAM%3D

    Edit: perhaps not that close but a decent range. Busy on weekends

      avoid the LA Gun Club at all costs.

      If she lives in LA she's likely comfortable driving. I'd suggest The Firing Line, LAX Gun Range, or FT3 in Stanton.

      I've written up my ongoing adventures as I learn to hunt.

      Yes, you CAN fit a case of shotgun shells into a .50cal ammo can.

      I think i found an optimal solution for ammo can labeling.


      I made this target for the NRA's Marksman pistol test. I think it's a lot better than the paper plate they suggest.

        I've been to La Puente Firing Range once, seemed ok to me. Then again, I have only been there once and it was late. I generally prefer the outdoors but I will go back.

          Honestly, the only indoor range I like in southern California is Smokin Barrel in Simi Valley. I avoid places that LA gunclub that cater to tourists (accident waiting to happen)

            I dislike indoor ranges, but the best one by me is Insight Shooting Range in Artesia.

              Thank you. We will avoid LA Gun Club.
              A few votes for Firing Line. I do like ranges that offer safety classes and additional training

                At a bare minimum, there should be a safety officer inside the range supervising activities.

                  I like LA gun club employees they are nice but it's the shooters I worry about. I live 5 minutes away but do not go there anymore. Everytime I have gone, regardless if it was a weekday or weekend, the tourist shooters were pointing their muzzles left and right.

                    Also why I like angles (outdoor) range. Good RSOs and no rental guns (no tourists type taking selfies).

                      The OC indoor range in Brea is a great place to shoot...but they do get busy on the weekends..Call ahead. Great place for a PPT too.

                          Rancho Magnum is nice. I considered getting membership there at one point. It's just slightly beyond my cousin's driving range for being able to go regularly.

                          I'll check out Insight too. And see about the bordering OC ranges

                            I wish outdoor was an option, but between work and childcare, it limited us to ranges open after dark
