Hi All,I wish my outings could be longer but I have a father that is recovering from a stroke. He was affected in the logic and decision areas. I don't feel safe leaving him alone for more than a run to the grocery store. Hopefully my father will get better or more daddy sitting volunteers will make themselves available lol.So I need to shoot somewhere close to home.Thanks,Taso

I was at On Target Range in Crystal Lake the other day, and I ask about AG and was told that they allow them. The rate is typical for an indoor range around here, and you need to be 21+ and have an FOID to shoot there. I just may take air pistol or 2 next time I'm putting in some PB practice time. My wife was in a woman's shooting league held there. I've been in there and called them and was told couple times that AG's weren't allowed. Hmmm...It's been a while since I asked them, hopefully the rule changed. Thanks for the heads up.P.S. The OP lives WAY south. 5 hours from me or you. He's having a fun shoot Memorial Day weekend in case you missed the other thread.

I think you may be confusing the OP and someone else, used to live in Lansing and work in North Chicago, commuted every day, backside know just about every bump over most the length of the Tri-state, and the only time it took me anything close to 5 hours was during a snw storm through construction zones, sadly more than once. As far as On Target goes, maybe either one of us were missed informed, or a change in policy. Only way we will find out is to ask again. I will not be heading that way for a few weeks, next couple weekends I'll be able to take advantage of a range in southern Indiana. Air and PB on the agenda. Maybe seeing if myself and my brother-in-law can get in trouble with our fellow Ikes for shooting on the range. The latest range rules pretty well eliminate anything fun like Care Bears, Barney, Happy Meal toys, plates (Cornell are the best), Beanie Babies...they basicly only allow paper targets. While I don't mind putting holes in paper, I do enjoy a little fun on the range as well. They don't even like clay pigeons at 50 yards, te pigeons are only to be used on the trap, skeet and sporting clays ranges. Will have to but our minds together soon, to come up with something, at least just to ask if it is allowed. Got to keep them on their toes.
