    firearm storage at Gun Club

    Does anyone know if any Gun Club or Shooting Range offers firearm storage in the LA area ? I would like to purchase a rifle and store it at the Gun Club or Shooting Range where I would use it. I do not mind paying for storage. This is because I feel it would be more secure than storing it at my domicile. Home invasion and thefts are a common occurrence in the area where I live. I would also avoid being seen getting a rifle case to my car by neighbours, and traveling around with a rifle in my trunk even if I follow all the rules for safe transport to/from home to Gun Club/Shooting Range. Thanks

          They're around. The ones I have come across are invariably indoor ranges with member lockers for rent.

                  Home invasion is a serious concern for you, so you buy a gun and want to keep it...far away from you.

                    A couple years back my wife donated a revolver to our local club/range for their fund raising raffle. Time passes, no raffle due to not having a valid raffle "permit".

                    Fair enough
                    she says.
                    Give me my revolver back & I'll donate it else where.
                    Come to find out, the revolver has been stolen from the club's "official" safe and is no longer available. It becomes a whole thing.

                    TLDR version: keep your gun at home in your own safe.

                        You'll pay more in external storage than for the gun. Theft is a non-issue in this decision.

                        Use external storage for short-term needs.

                          I think OP is trying to find a solution that while he is at work or away and because of his residential high theft/break-in area, he is looking to rent a gun storage perhaps in a gun club, according to him it also solve another issue of neighbor sees his rifle and case when going to the range/gun club.

                          Personally if I was in OP's described situation, I would hide the rifle well inside home when away or get a safe and bolt it down, and also beef up security to my resident's entry points. As to neighbors I would get a baseball bat style bag or a guitar case.
