Not so much in the Bay Area. There are quite a few outdoor ranges, but they're often busy.

Yup, but most are further north or south. I live by very large one up north, but we can shoot on our property so no need to drive out there lol.

Thats awesome.

Our cabin up in Truckee is right across Highway 89 from Prosser Lake and its got a nice area where everyone goes to shoot. All park rangers are cool with it.

I'm down for either. If I have my AR finished by then, I'd like to do outdoor, but I've got 22's and my 9mm that I can take indoor as well.

Yeah, nobody knows exactly what's going on with them. They have great prices and make great products, but shipping is a total gamble. Some folks are getting their orders right on time, others are going months with no merch and no info from PSA.

I just don't want to take a chance, as much as I'd like to order from them. I'm just gonna get the kit from Del-ton, and swap out the handguards/gas block/front sight later on.
