We are now running on a new, and hopefully much-improved, server. In addition we are also on new forum software. Any move entails a lot of technical details and I suspect we will encounter a few issues as the new server goes live. Please be patient with us. It will be worth it! :) Please help by posting all issues here.

I have never heard of this or encountered it at any range where I live, but then again I don't think I've ever gone into a range without carrying my own pistol. I rent frequently and they don't ask.

Yeah, I kind of wonder if that isn't the case in more places than people realize.

Stop pretending like it is some sort of universal rule, because it is not. And did you read the post you quoted he has never run into the rule and rents frequently.

It's a pretty common rule most places, although it doesn't surprise me it's less common in NV and AZ.
It shouldn't surprise you either.
And, yes, I was referring to you. Have you ever actually been to a range without a gun of your own? Have you been to any ranges outside of the Las Vegas area? The answers could color your experience in this regard. Many ranges don't make prominent display of rules like this, since it's a fairly uncommon scenario and most shooters already have a gun, and so there's no need to shove a bunch of rules in their face.
I never said it was "universal rule". And I'm not "pretending" it is, either, since I don't believe it to be. I don't know why you're so fixated on that point.
On the other hand, I wasn't the first person to point out that, in many places, it's hard to find a range that doesn't have this rule.
Post #3, a person from PA said the same thing I did.
Allow me to roll my eyes again.

Do you have a real point, or are you just enjoying the high horse?

I know of a range nearby that has the same 'no loner rental' rule too. I'm not sure if it was implemented before or after any incident but they did have a well known to them range member kill himself with a rental. He had just had all his guns taken away as evidence after his daughter's suspicious 'suicide' in his home a day or so prior.
Doesn't do a whole lot to stop suicides, just moves them outside the range facility. I'll say the suicidal don't go very far sometimes with their newly purchased weapon.
