Can someone recommend a good pistol and rifle shooting range in the Bay area with arms rental available, and foreign passports are accepted. Also US Citizen or Green Card is not a requirement.
Jackson Arms in SSF will do it with any legal identification and a short training course
Be sure to go there with someone else. They don't rent if you are alone.
Gun range in the Bay Area? The Bay Area still has those? Am impressed :)
target masters in milpitas reeds in santa clara No long guns and not sure about the foreign passport part. That might not be allowed
Hi, I own multiple firearms with a green card in San Francisco. There is basically three types of ranges: 1) For pistols and small caliber rifles (toys) (9mm, 45acp, 22) I recommend Target Masters in Milpitas. Wednesdays evening it's super cheap. 2) For Shotguns I like "Coyote Valley Sporting Clays", South of San Jose. 3) For longer distance rifles and bigger calibers, without being a member you can do 100m at Richmond Rod & Gun Club. If you ever become a member you can do 200m in Richmond and up to 1000m in Sacramento. If you are renting, you must go with other people. You should call about the visa/GC, they change the rules all the time. I strongly suggest you buy a cheap shotgun for $200 and a cheap 22lr rifle for $450. It's super easy to do the paperwork and one you show up at the range with your own stuff you "are in". Also looks cool as fuck hanging from your wall. To buy, just show up at Dicks Sporting Goods with your Green Card, California Driver's License, and a couple of recent utility bills.
For rifles there’s Sunnyvale Rod & Gun Club Inc
Reed’s is pretty good
Good luck with that last part
