No water, so no restrooms. Unknown when re-opening.

Surprised you guys haven't sprung for some composting toilets for your gun club use.
We are a little more rural here on the BI and deal with that problem the old fashioned
boy scout way,  since we have no facilities most everywhere. 
Also catchment is your friend.

I left the range at 10:30 after they closed the range at about 10:00.  It took me 2 hours to get to Kaimuki, got home at 12:30.  All due to a water main break between Kuliouou and New Valley

Have you ever used a decent indoor range?

There are many reasons people use private vs. public ranges.

Not if you want to shoot less than 25 yards and can’t make it to HDF open shoots.
Unless your talking about Waipahu. Then probably yes it is. Actually just overpriced but I don’t know. Never been there. .
Pretty positive ren wasn’t referring to Waipahu.

Thanks for the heads up CMO. :shaka:

I have.   Can't shoot your ammo,  so they beyond jacked up the price on that.   And they charged to even let me shoot.   Think I could have gone to the public range twice for the price of one indoor range.

You expect it to be free?  Do you know what it takes to build a range, pay rent on the land if not owned, get range cleaned/certified, keep ventilation maintained/certified? Apparently you don't.  Yet, you make convenient flat out lazy excuses. . .

One thing about those indoor ranges is that you also don't really see what the folks in the next lane over are doing.  When waiting for range, it wasn't uncommon to see someone in one lane pointing a loaded gun pretty much straight at the adjacent lane.  :o  Yeah, there's a barrier, but still. 

I would consider a monthly/yearly membership at a range if they opened later.  I can't make it regularly by 5 pm.  When I live in WA, they had ranges open until 10 pm.  That was super convenient and fun.  Yeah, I had to drive maybe 25 miles, but that's fast on the mainland freeways.

I would consider indoor ranges but there are not many to choose from.  The Kakaako one only has 4 lanes.

To be fair the Waipahu one I haven't experienced but the reviews on internet and comments on 2a forums makes me uninterested.

And yes, I understand there is considerable expense and maintenance in running an indoor range.  Wish there were more of them out there because competition is good for consumers.  Keeps everyone honest.
