Airgun policy unconfirmed — call ahead

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.

Airgun policy at this range STATE-LEVEL TIER A: EXPLICITLY airgun-positive at PGC state ranges. Airgun status not confirmed at venue level.
Pennsylvania state policy · NOT specific to this range
Tier A

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.
