With Inslee's new order this evening, a number of ranges have decided to close. Some of this information is 3rd party, but I deem it a reliable source.

  • Bullseye - CLOSED
  • Cascade - CLOSED
  • Champion Arms - CLOSED
  • Evergreen Sportsmen's Club - CLOSED
  • Interlake Sporting Assoc - CLOSED
  • Issaquah Sportsman's Club - CLOSED
  • Kenmore - CLOSED
  • MRC - Limited (Members and invited guests only, all events cancelled)
  • Norpoint - CLOSED
  • Paul Bunyan - CLOSED
  • Poulsbo Sportsmans Club - CLOSED
  • Renton Fish and Game Club - CLOSED
  • Seattle Rifle & Pistol - CLOSED
  • Securite Gun Club - OPEN
  • SRVC - CLOSED
  • Tacoma Rifle and Revolver - CLOSED
  • WCA North - OPEN
  • Wades in Bellevue - OPEN

If anybody has a reliable source that is different than above, or has any to add, please post it in here.

I would think you can keep a safe distance at a range. And there should be things that could be done to minimize grouping. But, geez, a range is one of the last places I'd think to close down.

This is not good. It means more pressure on the forests. There's already a lot of pressure and few places in some areas. I hope we pay extra attention to keeping shooting places cleaned up because if it suddenly gets worse and out of control, we'll loose more.

So if you go to public land to shoot, commit Random Acts of Cleanups. Post up some pics and name the forest you were in. I would like to let those forest agencies know that we are still enjoying and caring for the land. It's how we keep it open.

Thanks,

Bill

The governor’s order clearly includes private clubs and social clubs - which covers many of these facilities.

You may wish to play games but Officers and Directors with a fiduciary duty to their organizations will not.

If and when there is clarity that this proclamation doesn’t include outdoor shooting sports facilities - that’s a different conversation. With that said, I expect KC (and potentially most of Western WA) to be under “shelter in place” orders by the end of the week...so it won’t matter if these ranges are open or closed.

Not playing games. Not sure where that argumentative attitude came from. I understand indoor clubs and facilities, outdoor is nonsensical. But so are runs on TP.

The only other thing I’d add to this is that at a lot of the ranges you see a lot of folks that fall into that danger demographic. I think we all want to see shooters at the ranges, but If I were there I’d rather not have to worry about our older folks getting sick and possibly not making it.
