This range hasn’t confirmed airgun acceptance to us directly. Their inclusion is based on state-law inference: the state framework permits airguns at this type of venue, but the venue itself hasn’t published a specific airgun policy. Always confirm by phone before traveling. Indoor ranges in particular may decline airguns for insurance or backstop reasons.
