There is one by the velodrome at the Rt 100 / Rt 222 intersection. It is an outdoor range though.

Not sure how far you are looking to travel to go to a good range. Recently i went to french creek state park. Its all outdoors, they have a 25yard pistol range... and then a 50 and 100 yard targets for rifle as well. Along with about 10 tables to sit down at. Not a bad place to go shoot for the price, $0.

can't argue with $0, you wouldn't happen to know the zip code of that area, would you?

Address: 843 Park Road, Elverson, Pennsylvania 19520-9523
Phone: 610-582-9680, for general information (800) 637-2757

the range is kinda hidden/not easy to find unless you know where it is at. When you make plans to go, let me know i can dig up the directions i used.

The Firing Line is the range in witehall. I've heard its really nice.

Theres a range in easton, but the easton cops seem to like it, so I stay far far away

I shoot up at this hole in the wall range in up north of me. PM me if you'd like some info. I'm not posting it here cus to many ignant scumbags trash the place and dump there.

no prob dude

also I almost forgot. defcon-1 is off of 309 in coopersburg pa. They have a small indoor range made from a few shipping containers where you can rent out an mp5 or .223 rifle for some full auto rock and roll action.

I've been meaning to head down there and waste come cash

There is also the PA state game lands up rt 100. It is semi-difficult to get to if you don't know where it is. Head up rt. 100, make a right onto Sell rd. just before you pass the KOA camp ground sign. Make a right approx .25 mi in on the road, just before the road you are on makes a hard left and heads up hill. This road will take you back into the woods, and will turn to dirt. Follow this and you will pass the shotgun range on your left, the pistol/rifle range will be just ahead of you.

Now, the important question, what are you shooting?

Walther P99, 9mm. nothing fancy but 9mm is much more easy to source ammo for when I'm at work.

Actually the Cops have their own private range between Avona and Glendon (basially West Easton)

There's a easton rod and gun club that has a firing range up in williams township around I-78
