Mount Joy Sportsmen Association
Mount Joy Sportsmen Association operates a multi-discipline shooting facility in Lancaster County with explicit air rifle programming alongside long-range rifle, pistol, archery, shotgun, and trap. The club's online materials and program pages reference airgun and air rifle activity directly, making this one of the more clearly airgun-friendly venues in central PA. The 100+ year sportsmen's tradition supports membership-based access with a focus on diverse competitive disciplines.

Restrictive — confirm rules carefully
EXPLICITLY airgun-positive at PGC state ranges
Evidence 58 Pa. Code § 141.22 lists air rifles among permitted small game devices. Per direct PA project source: PGC outdoor state ranges have dedicated airgun bays. PGC range rule sheets accommodate airguns under standard rifle/pistol categories. PA statute 18 Pa.C.S. § 6304 separately addresses air rifle local-ordinance preemption.
State-level restrictions Some Special Regulations Areas (Philadelphia, Allegheny) restrict centerfire firearms but permit airguns; locally-imposed restrictions may apply (PA preemption is limited).
This describes Pennsylvania state-level airgun law. Rules at this specific range may be stricter — always confirm with the range directly before traveling.
Always call ahead.
Range policies change — sometimes mid-season. Indoor lanes update caliber rules, clubs revise membership requirements, and public ranges suspend airgun access without warning. Confirm current policy by phone or website before you make the trip.
