Air Hunter, I live in Melbourne and just came across this thread. I am very interested in having an indoor airgun only range east of Orlando. Are you considering the Daytona Beach area? BTW, there is an outdoor shooting range run by Indian River County on the border between Brevard and Indian River counties. Haven’t been there in a bit, but they have a dedicated airgun range that is on the right as you drive into the grounds. The biggest problem I find with outdoor ranges in Florida is the heat - at 78 I can’t take much of it and I don’t think I’m alone in that, so an indoor range hopefully closer to me that is not fouled with cordite smoke would be most welcome. Perhaps if you tied it to a club with reasonable monthly dues, that would help to defray your costs. I’d be in as long as it isn’t too far away and, I’d suggest, outside of Orlando to keep the traffic down. I’m also open to assisting you in getting it set up working out of my home.

An additional service you could provide is an airgun smith as there appear to be many gunsmiths but few that seem to do airguns. For example, I have two air rifles, a Crosman Challenger 2009 and a Tau 2000 (co2 cartridge) that will need to be resealed but the Crosman service rep in Orlando does not reseal Challengers and referred me to a phone number in Pennsylvania. I cannot seem to find anyone to work on the Tau but really would like to get that gun working first.

So, if any members know of a smith in the Orlando area that can reseal those rifles, please advise.

I think your idea is great. I guess the biggest challenge is locating it centrally to the largest number of users.

Thanks for reading - Dave B

Fabian, it is named the Indian River County Public Shooting Range. There is a web site, see link below (hope it works), that lists their operating days and times. They sell targets if needed. Driving south on I-95, get off on Fellsmere Road East (517), then follow the signs. I load it into the maps of my phone. Go past the airgun range on the right to register in and pay. There is a Macdonalds and a DQ just as you exit I95 if you need food. The range is pretty clean - bring a chair If needed. I’m always looking for people to shoot with.
