What to Look for in a Seattle Gun Range

• Look for ranges with climate-controlled indoor lanes — Seattle's rain makes outdoor shooting a wet affair most of the year
• Many Eastside ranges offer rental guns; great for trying before you buy, especially suppressor-ready models
• Check for USPSA and IDPA league nights at member clubs — competitive shooting is huge in the Seattle area
• King County DNR manages several free or low-cost outdoor ranges popular with hunters during fall season
• Bring a 50-round minimum per pistol and 20 rifle rounds — most ranges charge per lane, not per round
